*Money-Wise*

Money is a very important instrument to everyone, including believers.
Sometimes one of the hardest part of a believer's faith is parting with our hard-earmed money.
Sometimes we need to remind ourselves why we ought to give.
-We do not give grudgingly.
-We do not give selfishly.
-We do not give by manipulation.

-We give in obedience and faith.
-We give in appreciation and understanding that all we have belongs to God and He is our Provider.
-We give because we are saved to save others.
-We give because God first gave to us- our Lives and our Salvation through Jesus Christ, His only begotten Son, and He continues to give to us.

Tithes & Offering- A Covenant Seed.
Bring all the tithes into the storehouses, that there may be food in My house, and try me now in this, says the Lord of hosts, if I will not open for you the windows of heaven and pour out for you such blessing that there will not be room enough to receive it. Malachi 3:10

Liberality- Generosity is the nature of God.
A closed hand can neither receive. We ought to cultivate a habit of giving, both to God's kingdom work and also to anyone in need. God makes His Grace abound when we do this. 2 Corinthians 9:1-15

Hospitality- Entertain strangers.
Who knows when even an Angel may visit. Abraham's hospitality to Angels, earned him God's promised child. Genesis 18:1-14, Matthew 25:37-40

Honour Leaders- A labourer is worthy of his reward. Give to those who sow sacrificially into the salvation of your soul. If you honour a prophet, you get a prophet's reward. Matthew 10:41-42

Fulfill Your Family Responsibilities-
Your family should reflect and benefit of God's glory in your life. Don't be an infidel. 1 Timothy 5:8

Save And Invest- Give to yourself too.
Cultivate a disciplined saving habit and investment also. Don't eat it all.
Joseph became a father to Pharaoh in Egypt because of God's Grace on Him. One of which was his ingenuity in saving in the rainy day and having more than enough in the drought. Genesis 45:8
