The word for today is - Need !

Good morning,

The word for today is -  Need !

 

The important thing to remember in the midst of the “financial crisis” is that God is in control. Let's look at Philippians 4:19, But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. We have to trusting God in the midst of good or bad circumstances. He is going to take care of his children, He is our Father. Notice the above verse says “All" it doesn’t say “some” or “most,” but it says that He will supply all your needs. But the bottom line is that God is faithful and He does what He promises. Are we faithful to Him?  We must be willing to give all we have if need be, just as Christ did. We are to be givers also, meeting the needs of other people and the church. That's why we are to give are best to help ours. Read  Malachi 3:8-10,Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me. But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee? In tithes and offerings. Ye are cursed with a curse: for ye have robbed me, even this whole nation. Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the Lord of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it. Although we should do what we can to ensure that the churches and ministries we give to are good stewards of God's money, we can't always know for certain that the money we give will be spent correctly. We should not be overly burdened with this concern. Nor should we use this as an excuse not to give.  It's important for us to find a good church that is wisely managing its financial resources for God's glory and for the growth of God's kingdom. But once we give to God, we don't need to worry about what happens to the money. This is God's problem to resolve. If a church leader or ministry misuses its funds, God knows how to deal with it and them.  We rob God when we fail to give offerings to him. Thank you God for your word. Amen !
