Types of Biblical Giving

The importance of the Tithe can't be stressed strongly enough. To subdue anything requires that you lay the proper foundation. Tithing is the beginning or the foundation of God's protection of your financial life. Take control of your finances, by being obedient to God's Word. Tithing is done in obedience to God's Word and the obedience creates the blessing in our lives.

First Fruits shows that we are putting God first. Proverbs 9:10. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding. When you reverence or put God first, it is the beginning of using knowledge correctly. Having understanding causes you to approach God properly and receive from Him that which He chooses to give you, as a result, He is glorified. When you put God first in your finances it shows God you are not in love with money. You will use it for it's intended purpose.

Alms Giving is when you don't tell anyone what you are giving. This is done in secret. Proverbs 19:17 "He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the Lord; and that which he hath given will he pay him again." God takes care of those who care for the ones unable to meet their own needs. Give an Alms gift and observe what God will do. The Seed planted by Faith will receive a Reward.

The only way to this great increase is by applying the principles described in the Word to receive the 30, 60 and 100 fold blessing. Be obedient to the Word and watch what happens.

Perspective

In each situation in our lives we react a certain way to what is happening, in many cases reacting differently than other people. Why do we react differently than others? It is perspective!     Perspective is defined as “a particular attitude toward or way of regarding something; a point of view.” In a light hearted way, (in some cases) a football game comes to mind. You may be pulling for your favorite team and your good friend is pulling for the opposing team. Each of you are pulling for your team with all your might. At the end of the game, one of the teams prevails while the other team is dejected over the loss.   If your team won and your friends team lost. You are thrilled, your friend not so much. From your perspective it is awesome to have a win, your friend isn’t happy at all. Why? It is from the perspective you are coming from. You may have a particular point of view concerning a matter and many around you don’t share your view. You think in the manne...

Your Thought Life

It is interesting to me, how we don’t realize that how we think, affects our lives. We make most of our decisions based on what we ponder. Consider how much you dwell on a particular thought and at some point you make plans on how you will make it happen.  You possibly have thought on a matter so intently, that you start making hand motions or your foot moves as if you are actually doing what you are only thinking about. Your thoughts are actually very powerful. It is the genesis of any action you take. Books have been written on what effects our thinking can accomplish. Possibly one of the better known books on the subject is “Think And Grow Rich” written by Napoleon Hill. The book was first released in the 1930’s and changed the trajectory of many lives. Many of the concepts are found in the Word of God, the writer only acknowledges the fact in rare mentions. Another source that is out there is the Master Key System. It follows the same concept as the book “Think And...
