Give God What Is Rightfully His!

Many Christians feel that tithing a tenth of their income is optional depending on whether they have extra after all the bills are paid.

According to the Bible, that is not what God intended at all. He wants His Children to put Him first in every aspect of their lives, including giving the tithe money to Him first before any bills have been paid. God already knows how He is going to provide, but He wants us to trust Him to do it in the way He sees fit.

Malachi 3: 10

Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the Lord of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.

Trust, try and prove God to see what He will do in your life. Make the choice to put Him first in your finances by paying the tithe first thing and then proceed to the other bills. I don’t know how He does it, but when you put Him first He then has the liberty to work on your behalf and truly “open the windows of Heaven” to handle whatever problem arises.

You must realize that God handles things completely different from the way the world does. You must put your trust in God FIRST without always seeing how things will turn out in the end.

God created the entire world and everything in it in 6 days, so He is certainly capable of handling anything that might come your way. Make the choice right now to trust Him and don’t turn back.

Make sure you give God what is rightfully His and learn to trust Him no matter what might come your way, knowing He is fully capable of handling it.

I would love to give credit, but I have no idea of the author. It sure gives a great word picture of what can happen when we rebel and determine to do things our own way no matter what God says. Sometimes I think it takes Him much longer to answer our prayers because we have messed things up trying to make something happen ourselves. Then He has to undo our damage before He can make things right.

All the while, then, we find ourselves thinking about how slow God is. If we could just see things from His perspective, we would find that we can trust Him with every detail and know that He will work everything out for the best.

I came across an anonymous quote the other day that I put in a place where I can see it every day to help me remember its point:

PATIENCE IS ALSO A FORM OF ACTION

God loves His Children with a love that we can’t even imagine. Trust Him to supply your needs and work on your behalf.

What happens sometimes when we try to do it ourselves!
