Bible Verse of The Day – 5-15-14

Proverbs 3:9 (NKJV)9 Honor the Lord with your possessions, and with the firstfruits of all your increase;

We get a lot of emails from our readers, asking us various questions about a wide range of topics.

Many of the questions revolve around financial situations. We hear many stories from people who are struggling to make ends meet and don’t know how to make it all work.

So today we want to tell you what God showed us close to 20 years ago. And it is this:

Honor the Lord with your possessions, and with the firstfruits of all your increase.

This has been the key to us making it through everything with victory. This was the piece of the puzzle that we were missing for so many years before.

We were broke and drowning in debt. I was out of work because the factory where I worked had closed up, and Pastor Ellie was working a full time job to try to help us make ends meet.

We were getting further and further behind on everything. There seemed to be no hope.

And then God spoke to us through a Sunday message at the church we were attending at the time. He told us to do one thing: Tithe.

Despite the fact that we were broke and in debt, God told us to give to Him first. Give to Him from everything that came in.

And so we did. We tithed from everything that came in. No, we didn’t suddenly get out of debt. But we saw God move in some serious ways on our behalf. And we knew beyond any doubt that it was God.

After a while we started to get caught up and after a long journey, we were able to get back on our feet. And we know that it was God. We know that it was due to our obedience and trust in Him.

So give to God the firstfruits of all your increase. It doesn’t make sense to our heads, but God is way better at math than we are.

Bible Verse of The Day – 10-19-13

Psalm 16:8 (NKJV) I have set the Lord always before me; because He is at my right hand I shall not be moved.

Have we set God before us? Is he at our right hand?

Do you know that if we put God first, we cannot be moved?

If we have God as our first priority, there is nothing that can shake us and nothing that can move us from where we are supposed to be.

God rules and reigns over all things and if we abide in Him, there is no trial, no temptation and no storm that can move us or pull us down.

Put God first in your life, today, right now! He will give you shelter from the storms and solutions to your problems.

He is God and He is good.

Bible Verse of The Day – 6-11-13

(Psalm 69:34 NKJV)  Let heaven and earth praise Him, The seas and everything that moves in them.

Take some time today to Praise Him. He is worthy!

Think about the times when you were lost and He found you. How about the time when you were in a pinch and He took care of your need?

What about when someone was hurting or abusing you and tears rolled down your cheek because you thought you were alone and there was no one there to help you, only to realize that God sent someone to help you out and give you a helping hand?

I’m sure there are all kinds of stories where God was there for each one of us at one time or another.

Let us praise Him today for the God that He is! AWESOME!!

Bible Verse of The Day – 6-10-13

(Hebrews 4:12 NKJV)  For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

The Word of God is more than just ink on paper. It’s alive!

The Word of God is our instruction manual for life. It gives us everything we will ever need to live our life on earth successfully and victoriously.

Do we have questions? God’s Word has the answers we need.

There is not a single situation in our lives for which God’s Word doesn’t offer the solution or the wisdom we need to make a sound decision. We can study the lives of godly men and women in history and learn from them.

We can glean understanding in many things by learning from those who have walked before us.

The Word of God is truth. It teaches us right from wrong. It teaches us the difference between good and evil. It teaches us how to be overcomers. It teaches us about healing, deliverance, God’s provision, grace, mercy, salvation, forgiveness, compassion and so much more.

We’d like to encourage you to spend time in God’s Word. Take just a few minutes, pick it up and read it. Ask God to give you a desire to know His word. Once you get started reading it and learning it, you won’t be able to stop!

Be blessed and encouraged.
