Being Faithful With Finances
June 20, 2017
Ponder This
Did you know that God might be withholding a blessing from you that He wants to give you, because He first tried to bless you with money and you weren't faithful with that money, and therefore God cannot give you spiritual blessings?
The Bible says, "If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches? And if ye have not been faithful in that which is another man's, who shall give you that which is your own?" (Luke 16:11-12).
What are the true riches? Spiritual power, insight into the Word of God, answered prayer, fellowship with Jesus Christ. It’s joy unspeakable and full of glory. If you have those things you are truly rich.
God gives us tests with money and other things. And He may be withholding a blessing from you because you have not been faithful in the earning, giving, saving, and spending of your money. Are you faithful?
FOR YOUR GIFT TO THE MINISTRY
Front Porch Moments by Gayle Foster
WITH KEY INSIGHTS FROM HER FATHER, ADRIAN ROGERS
I try to unplug each morning with Jesus with just my rocking chair, my Bible, and a pen.
Having a secret place is very important because I know that Jesus is always there waiting for me. I know where I can find Him! His presence is everywhere, but there are places where it is so thick you can cut it with a knife. You may not even have a front porch, but there is a secret place for you as well. God’s invitations are for anyone who will respond. There is no more important request than the one found in Psalm 27:8: “My heart has heard You say, ‘Come and talk with Me.’ And my heart responds, ‘Lord, I am coming.’”
