MP3/iPod - Teaching by Brian Kluth

Train your children to be

faithful and generous givers.

Read the following verses.  Think and pray about the verse that applies the most to your life.

Proverbs 22:6 Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.

Genesis 18:19 I have chosen him, so that he will direct his children and his household after him to keep the way of the LORD by doing what is right and just.

Deuteronomy 6:6-7 These commandments that I give you today are to be upon your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.

Psalm 78:4-7 We will tell the next generation the praiseworthy deeds of the LORD, his power, and the wonders he has done. He decreed statutes…which he commanded our forefathers to teach their children, so the next generation would know them, even the children yet to be born, and they in turn would tell their children. Then they would put their trust in God and would not forget his deeds but would keep his commands.

Ephesians 6:4 Bring them (children) up with the loving discipline the Lord himself approves, with suggestions and godly advice.

Be sure to email your pastor & church leaders...

If you are enjoying this 40 day devotional, be sure to send an email to your pastor, leaders, and your church's finance/stewardship committee members, to let them know about the www.GenerousLife.org and www.GiveWithJoy.org websites.  Hundreds and hundreds of churches across American and overseas have ordered copies of the 40 Day Generous Life devotional for every family in their congregation to inspire generosity and increase giving - - especially in the midst of a difficult economy.  Videos and materials are also available to use the devotional in Sunday School classes, small groups and home Bible study groups.  For ordering information, CLICK.

 

John D. Rockefeller said, “I never would have been able to tithe the first million dollars I ever made if I had not tithed on my first salary, which was $1.50 a week.”

Giving a child money to put into an offering plate does not produce a generous adult. If you want to produce a generous adult, you must train a child to tithe from any money he or she receives from family, friends or work projects.  This child will grow up to honor God.

MP3/iPod - Audio true story by Brian Kluth

Count Your Blessings Every Week

When my wife and I were first married, we only made $15,000 a year. We were giving 10% of our income to the LORD’s work, but we had a desire to be even more generous. Then I came across 1 Corinthians 16:2 that says, “On the first day of the week, each of us is to give according to how God has prospered us.” I told Sandi that on Sunday nights I wanted to take out a pencil and paper and write down all the ways the LORD provided for us during the week. Each Sunday, we discovered that in addition to our small income, there would be special financial blessings that happened nearly every week. So, we'd give 10% of our income to our church and another 10% of the financial blessings we counted to share with others. The first year, we gave $4,000 to the LORD’s work on a $15,000 income.
