DAY #21 BIBLE TRUTH & VERSES

MP3/iPod - Teaching by Brian Kluth

Give careful thought to your financial practices

and never neglect God’s house and servants.

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

Haggai 1:4-12 “Is it a time for you yourselves to be living in your paneled houses, while this house remains a ruin?” Now this is what the LORD Almighty says: “Give careful thought to your ways. You have planted much, but have harvested little. You eat, but never have enough. You drink, but never have your fill. You put on clothes, but are not warm. You earn wages, only to put them in a purse with holes in it.” This is what the LORD Almighty says: “Give careful thought to your ways. Go up into the mountains and bring down timber and build the house, so that I may take pleasure in it and be honored,” says the LORD. “You expected much, but see, it turned out to be little. What you brought home, I blew away. Why?” declares the LORD Almighty. “Because of my house, which remains a ruin, while each of you is busy with his own house. Therefore, because of you the heavens have withheld their dew and the earth its crops. I called for a drought on the fields and the mountains, on the grain, the new wine, the oil and whatever the ground produces, on men and cattle, and on the labor of your hands.”

Nehemiah 10:39 (The leaders and the people repented and said) “We will not neglect the house of our God.”

Exodus 22:29 (God says) “You must be prompt in giving Me the tithe.”

Deuteronomy 12:19 Be careful not to neglect the Levites (ministers) as long as you live in your land. 

If you have done this, THANKS!

If you haven't already done this,

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.

 

Materialism is to generosity what kryptonite was to Superman.

If everyone in your church followed your pattern of giving, would your church receive a token, a tip or a tithe?

MP3/iPod - Audio true story by Brian Kluth

Laptop PC Given For Bhutan Bible Translation

The Bible teaches we are to give from “whatever we have.” While ministering in India, I found myself without any cash and no ATMs within hundreds of miles. I met a Christian from Burma who for 10 years had been translating, by hand, the entire Bible into the Bhutanese language.  He had 66 school notebooks filled with all of his translation work. But he now needed a computer so he could type everything into the computer and have the Bible printed and distributed all over Bhutan. I wanted to help him, but I didn’t have any cash. The LORD then prompted my heart with the thought, “He doesn’t need money, he needs a computer; give him the laptop computer you have.” The next morning, I gave my laptop to this Christian brother so he could finish his translation work. He left rejoicing in God’s provision.
