GIVING TO THE LORD!
"But to do good and to communicate forget not: for with such sacrifices GOD IS WELL PLEASED". Hebrews: 13:16. (10-16). This Sunday we are worshiping our Lord who is the source of every blessings in our life, isn't HE? The scripture calls us to worship the Lord by "the sacrifice of our body" (Roman 12:1), "by the sacrifice of praise" (Hebrews 13:15), and "by the sacrifice of substance" (Hebrews 13:16. My friend, why are you asking me "In Greek does it say tithing" or "In Hebrew does it really means tithing or 1/10th. Don't bother about studying Greek and Hebrew if you don't want to give to the Lord. Remember, God doesn't need our resources. He has all He needs. He owes everything including us. The issue is not that God needs it to do His work, but HE WANTS US TO BE OBEDIENT. He is calling us to give back to Him what He has so graciously given to us. Let me tell you why I believe in Tithing. 1) Tithing teaches us always PUT GOD FIRST in our life (Deut 14:23). 2) Tithing is a Bible DOCTRINE with CONTINUITY in the scriptures, before, during, and after Moses' Law. 3) Tithe is not mine to withhold: it BELONGS TO GOD (Leviticus 27:30). 4) Tithing is an indicator of our GENEROSITY (2 Chro:31:12). 5) I don't want God to consider me as a ROBBER (Malachi 3:8). 6) There is a Bible principle of SOWING AND REAPING (2 Corinthians 9:6). As we sow generously, we shall reap generously, both naturally and spiritually. 7) For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also (Luke 12:34). Let us worship our Lord with our substance also this Sunday. I have never heard somebody became a pauper because they have given their Tithe and Sacrificial Offering to the cause of Christ's KINGDOM! LORD YOU ARE NOT A DEBTOR TO ANYBODY...THANK YOU LORD.
