Honour God by kpakpandoN(m): 6:32am On Oct 28, 2013
Ephesians 6:1-3 commands children not only to obey but also to honour their parents. If you know how to honour your father and mother, that attitude will see you through certain storms of life. Not many believers know the full value of the giving of first fruits. Proverbs 3:8-9 says you should honour God, who is the Father of fathers with your first fruits. When the high priest was dressed in filthy garment and Satan was standing by his right hand to accuse him, who rescued him? It was God. The only individual who decides the winner or loser in any given battle is God. No wonder it was said in 1Samuel 2:9 that we cannot by physical strength. Remember that God is the One who gives dreams and also the One who can help you realise them. If God is with you, it does not matter how many the opposing forces are; you shall prevail. This was why Joseph saw offending God as a great sin against God. One thing that keeps me from sinning is not punishment from man but from God. Do you honour God with your first fruits? Your first salary on a new Job is your first fruits. So also is your first profit on a new business. It is also the difference between your old salary and the new salary when you are promoted or given a salary raise. Similarly, your first salary in a particular year can be your first fruits. First fruits is to be paid 100%. In the case of a salary increase, if you received a raise from 50,000 to 75,000, you will be expected to pay tithe on the 50,000 former salary, but you will also have to pay the 25,000 difference between both old and new salaries as your first fruits. Do this and God will cause your storehouses to be filled with plenty.
