DIRECTING YOUR HEART THROUGH YOUR GIVING
For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
Matthew 6:21
When your money is in the things of God,
your heart will be in the things of God. You can direct heart through your
giving. When you give first fruits, pay tithes, give offerings and partner with
ministries, you direct your heart to be in the things of God. Your heart will
follow your treasure.
We ought to take giving to the kingdom of
God seriously, because where our treasure is, there our hearts will be also. We
should not serve money, but serve God with our money. Don’t let money dictate
whether you can give to God or not. Serve God with your money.
No one can serve two masters; for either he
will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and
despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.
Matthew 6:24
First fruits, tithes, offerings and
partnering with ministries help the kingdom of God to do well financially. They
help to keep God’s work going. When we give to the kingdom of God, we advance
the kingdom of God.
There are rewards for giving in God’s
kingdom, we definitely reap what we sow, when we build God’s house, God will
build our houses. When we make things happen in God’s kingdom, God will make
things happen in our lives.
Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for
whatever a man sows, that he will also reap.
Galatians 6:7
When we give to the kingdom of God, we
honour God with our money, we advance the kingdom of God and we direct our
hearts to be in the kingdom of God.
Honor the LORD with your possessions, and
with the firstfruits of all your increase; so your barn will be filled with
plenty and your vats will overflow with new wine.
Proverbs 3:9-10
Thought of the day: Where my treasure is,
there my heart will be also.
Prayer: Heavenly Father, thank You for an
opportunity to sow into the kingdom, thank You that I will reap what I sow, in
the name of Jesus. Amen.
