TITHING FUTURE INCOME
"And this stone, which I have set for a pillar, shall be God's house: and of all that thou shalt give me I will surely give the tenth unto thee"Genesis 28:22
Meet the fugitive on the run. He had left home and faced an uncertain future. He had no job and no income. Then he had an amazing encounter with Divinity. He had a dream in which God promised him that the future would be bright. Then he vowed to serve the Lord Jehovah, dedicated a place of worship and paid his tithe!
This fugitive, for all his faults, at least got something right. He grasped the principle of giving and that is; put God first. Solomon eventually articulated it well in his book of wisdom. "Honour the LORD with thy substance, and with the first fruits of all thine increase: So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine".(Proverbs 3:9, 10).
You are a dependent youth today. You have no job and no income. But you have had an encounter with God. You are a child of God. Believe the promises of God about a better future. And when the blessings start overflowing, remember to put God first. Be ready to give your tithe.
Challenge: Learn the principle of giving.
Prayer: 🙏🏽I will surely give the tenth to thee, Lord
Quote: 🗣Put God first.

Mal 3:10 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].
God bless you for receiving His Word. Until we have another love time with God, stay blessed and have a fruitful day.
