When we give God the first place by placing our priorities in the background, the Lord is pleased to bless us. His glory becomes a reality in everything we do allowing us to experience prosperity and abundant life in every area of our lives.
Peter was frustrated, trying without success to fish for his sustenance, but Jesus arrived and asked for the boat to preach while Peter waits. After Jesus receives what he asked for, then he speaks to Peter saying boga on the inside and throws the net. It was then that the miracle of miraculous fishing happened, after Jesus was satisfied. If you want to see the blessing of God flowing in every aspect of your life you must learn to put God first in everything; and this includes your finances. Our first fruits are a wonderful opportunity to show you that He is first.
Matthew 6:33 says "But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you." If you want the addition you must put it first, because the first commandment is to love God above all things.
The widow of Sarepta who relates 1 Kings 17: 8-12 thought, "I and my son come first", however the prophet tells him not to be afraid, go, do as you say, but make me eat first. At that time Elijah represented God. Neither your hunger nor sustenance goes first, God goes first; not because he punishes you if you stop giving him the rightful place, but because if you do he blesses you in a big way. The woman believed, put God first and both the oil and the flour multiplied, she did not lack food while the drought lasted in the region.
The Lord is the beginning and the end of everything, He is eternal; it rules over the past, the present and the future. Without Him we can not have anything that is eternal, nothing and no one can save us from sin or change our lives. Is Christ the Alpha of your life?
I hope this message is a blessing for your lives.
Beautiful message @ taty17, we should all ask ourselves this question is God the first in our lives? or there are things, people that take away the first place, today is a good day to order our life, our house and first place our God.
God bless you. @biblegateway
Amen... Great post!!!
He is the beginning and the end and there is no other God like him, and our hearts must be inudo to him and adore him because we have been created to adore the Father, but everyone does it because it is the free shelter and we know that we must choose the correta that is the I AM.
