TO GIVE AND BE GIVEN – LESSON 8
THE TITHE PART 6
BLESSING TO BE GIVEN
Lesson 6 showed from Malachi 3:8-9 that every believer who fails to tithe is a thief and are cursed. Lesson 7 spoke of the consequences of that curse. Lesson 8, today, will focus on the benefits of tithing and obedience to God.
In Malachi 8:10 God challenges us to put Him to the test. When you are truly obedient to Him and willingly (not grudgingly) give your tithes (plus offerings), He says that He will “…open (to) you the windows of heaven and pour you out a blessing (abundantly)…”.
Verse 11 says, “I will rebuke the devourer (Satan) for your sakes, and he shall not destroy (steal) the fruits (of your labor) …”.
A man I personally knew told of an incident in his former church where the Pastor had preached on tithing. A man in that church told the Pastor that he could not afford to tithe because he did not have enough money each month to even pay all his bills and his needs. Nevertheless, under conviction of the Holy Spirit, he decided to put God to the test (prove God) by tithing for the next six months, regardless of what might happen to him, and he did it.
At the end of that six months, all of his bills were paid, all of his needs were met, and he had extra left over. It had defied logic, but God was faithful in “opening the windows of heaven” to him.
I also remember a period of time when my obligations were about one thousand dollars a month more than my income, but each month my bills all got paid. I tithed, and God provided in many different ways, in fact, a different way each month. I never knew month to month how it was going to happen, often in the most unexpected ways. Sometimes even a “bad” circumstance led to a financial provision, such as a settlement from a car accident, a thing normally considered “bad” that God allowed for “good.”
God rewards obedience. You will “be given” blessings which you could not even have anticipated when you tithe.
God loves us. When we also love Him, we reciprocate to His love by obedience to His will, Word, and way.

WEEDS OR SEEDS
In Matthew 13 we learn the parable about the sower. We learn that seeds are sown on the wayside, the stony places, among thorns, and good ground. The results are astounding. Jesus shared that three out of four seeds planted would produce nothing that lasted. The fourth group would bear fruit, but some thirtyfold (30x) some sixtyfold (60x) and some hundredfold (100x) what was planted. So out of four seeds planted, only a little over 8% got a hundredfold increase. How that must displease the one that gives us seed to plant (God).
Later he speaks about a man which sowed good seed in his field, but that an enemy came into his field and sowed tares (weeds). The good seed sprung up, but the weeds also sprung up. The weeds were not noticed when they were planted, only when they later grew alongside the good seed. The farmer (householder) was asked where they came from, and he said that an enemy had done this. The servants wanted to get rid of the weeds, but the farmer said, “No.” Because if they pulled out all of the weeds it would also pull out some of the good seed that had grown alongside them that grew into wheat. He went on to say, “Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest, I will say to the reapers, gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into the barn.”
Weeds will surely come into our field because we have a real enemy, Satan. He is allowed to “sow” his “weeds” to try to mimic the real thing. Often you can’t tell the difference between a weed and a good seed that has grown. He is deceptive. The point is, we have to be careful what “we” sow. Are we like the original sower that sowed our seed into places where thorns and briers choke it out and have nothing to show for our efforts? Or perhaps we have sown “weeds” which represent sin, and not sown good seed.
We are told that we reap what we sow. We should never aid the enemy in sowing things that become weeds. Such things like bitterness, unforgiveness, hatred, anger, malignity, doubt, fear, and more of the like are all weeds. We have to be good gardeners with our lives and keep these things out of our gardens before they are fully grown. If we don’t, they will tear out the good when they are removed.
What are you planting in your garden? Weeds or Seeds? Choice is given to us by God through free will. Be determined to plant the right things. Again remember, we reap what we sow, and it doesn’t always happen overnight. One day the great harvest will take place, where God separates the wheat from the tares. Let’s make sure we give him the best crop ever!

A REPOST FROM:
Saturday, April 15, 2006
You would say to me, how Lord, how, and when Lord when, and why, Lord, why, but I would say unto you do not look at the hows. or when, or whys, for I will perfect that which concerneth you, saith the Lord. I will be the viaduct to bring the flow unto you. I will cause the time you spend preparing to be of much value. Do not wonder in your soul as to how this will come about. Do not lean to your own understanding and try to figure it out, for as the wave crashes onto the shore, and goes back to sea, and continues to come over and over again without man’s help, so I too will cause a mighty rush to come upon the work of your hands. You will surely see what I have promised. And you will see it with your own eyes, saith the Lord, you will surely see it. I have spoken to you in the wee hours of the night. I have given you an urge in the daytimes. You have inquired of me, and I have responded. Surely, it shall spring forth. Surely it shall come. A great, fresh anointing shall come upon you saith the Lord. You shall stand and see the glory of God. As you lift up my name, I shall draw the people. Yes, I shall draw the people out of their darkness, out of their sorrow, out of their condemnations, out of their convictions, and shall draw them unto me. There will be many that curse you and laugh, and call you nothing but a lunatic, but you are none of the things that they say, saith the Lord. For you have sought me with your whole heart, and have been attentive to my Word, and I shall surely bring it to pass. You shall see it with your own eyes saith the Lord. It shall happen. I shall shake loose of my spirit upon you and many shall run to the alter and repent. The time is coming, and now is saith the Lord. It shall surely spring forth.

EXHORTATION
There comes a time in all of our lives that we need to slow down...Smell the coffee, take short breaks and short walks, enjoy the freshly fallen snow, or the sweet blossoms of the first flowers of spring; As you listen to the carefree birds singing birdie, birdie, birdie all together in sweet refrain. Or pause to hear the laugher of an innocent child happily skipping on the same sidewalk that you’re trying to walk on. By all means, stop for a moment to hear the elderly repeating the same story to whoever will listen, about their only remaining memories of days gone by. Even in the midst of everything going on around us in this sometimes crazy, mixed up world...There’s still so much to be grateful for. In fact, now would be the perfect time for you to stop long enough to do a quick inventory. Yes, look deeply into your heart and see just what your heart and your life is so full of; And what you’re no doubt totally consumed with. Now’s the time for everyone to get totally honest as you look into every area of your life. Take it all to the Lord in prayer; While being very careful of spending too much time...On matters and on people of too little importance. PriorItizing is the name of the game at this moment in time. Yes, determine to watch out for any and all time stealers. Then you would certainly do yourself a big favor; IF you would make it a top priority to keep God's praises on your lips and His song in your heart. “He has told you, O man, what is good, and what the Lord really wants from you: He wants you to promote justice, to be faithful, and to live humbly and obediently before your God.”(Micah 6:8 ) Have a blessed day as you contemplate the inventory that’s ahead of you
