Seed Money

It all belongs to God - everything! It's all His creation. His designs. We are His. Our family belongs to Him. Our possessions are on loan to us. Our money? It's all His. How do we keep it? The money? All these things? By recognizing it's all His. Using it all for His glory. By giving it to Him. He only asks for part of it. But by giving Him the part He asks for we keep the rest and it is protected by Him. Now that's a "hallelujah and an amen!"

Plant your money seed in Him. Take the first that He asks for, the tithe, which is 10%, and plant it in the church you attend. The rest is protected by the Lord and you will see it grow - yes, grow - after He has what He's asked for He takes the rest and blesses you! You will see it go farther than you ever thought possible. Now what do you do with the rest of it?

I know you have bills to pay and I know you have needs. But for every bit of money, no matter how great or small, that you plant in the kingdom of God as seed it will grow and multiply back to you 100, 60 or 30 times more! That's growth. That's increase! That's an offering over and above the tithe and God honors all your giving to please Him. He honors those things, which bring Him glory. He blesses those things - seeds - planted in His Name!

Trust God with your money since it's His money in the first place and see how your bills get paid, your needs get met and His kingdom gets blessed!

"Everything in the heavens and earth is Yours, O Lord, and this is Your kingdom. We adore You as being in control of everything. Riches and honor come from You alone and You are the Ruler of all mankind; Your hand controls power and might, and it is at Your discretion that men are made great and given strength."
- I Chronicles 29:11-12 TLB
