Use of Tithe

I tithe because I acknowledge that everything I have belongs to God. The rightful Owner is God Himself. God owns everything [Psalm 50:10, Haggai 2:8, Colossians 1:16]. I am but a custodian; a trustee. I may reason that I got my money from gainful employment. Yet, it is God Who gave me the power to produce wealth [Deuteronomy 8:18]. When anyone abuses the tithe, it is God’s money that is being abused. God shall be the Judge for there is only One Judge [James 4:12].  Hence, when what I tithed is being abused, why should I get angry? The abuser cheated God, not me.  For I tithe to God and not to men [Hebrews 7:8]. Misery follows sin [Proverbs 13:21]. When we missed the mark, misery is hot on our heels.

Let every person be loyally subject to the governing (civil) authorities. For there is no authority except from God [by His permission, His sanction], and those that exist do so by God’s appointment.  Therefore he who resists and sets himself up against the authorities resists what God has appointed and arranged [in divine order]. And those who resist will bring down judgment upon themselves [receiving the penalty due them].  For civil authorities are not a terror to [people of] good conduct, but to [those of] bad behavior. Would you have no dread of him who is in authority? Then do what is right and you will receive his approval and commendation.  For he is God’s servant for your good. But if you do wrong, [you should dread him and] be afraid, for he does not bear and wear the sword for nothing. He is God’s servant to execute His wrath (punishment, vengeance) on the wrongdoer.  Therefore one must be subject, not only to avoid God’s wrath and escape punishment, but also as a matter of principle and for the sake of conscience. For this same reason you pay taxes, for [the civil authorities] are official servants under God, devoting themselves to attending to this very service.  Render to all men their dues. [Pay] taxes to whom taxes are due, revenue to whom revenue is due, respect to whom respect is due, and honor to whom honor is due.  Keep out of debt and owe no man anything, except to love one another; for he who loves his neighbor [who practices loving others] has fulfilled the Law [relating to one’s fellowmen, meeting all its requirements]. [Romans 13:1-8].

Let the Rightful Owner, Who is also the only Judge, deal with any situation in ways that have been ordained by Him. Shalom!

Did You Think To Pray

We get to know somebody in proportion to the time we spend together. Children spell love as TIME. God spells love as TIME too!

The majority of church leaders spent an average of 4 minutes a day in prayer.

"I have a very busy day today. Must not spend 2 hours but three in prayers "! John Wesley would not think of going out in his day without first praying.

God loves your company. He wants time with you.

A book to motivate spending more time in prayer.

Who We Are in Christ

Kris shares about how most believers have no idea who they are called to be. In a nutshell, Kris explains that we are called to be sons of God and in understanding that, we ought to behave as such. "The devil knows who you are, and God knows who you are... creation knows who you are, it's only YOU who don't know who the heck you are." "What's the point? You rock, you just don't know it." "The reason why you do miracles is because your Daddy is God" "When you act like God, you are being yourself" "You were born to torment the tormentor" "You can always tell the size of a man by the size of the problem it takes to discourage him." "You rock, and you didn't even do it to you"
