Finances, God's Way

  Like so many of you, I’ve been wondering why God has so many pastors, evangelists and teachers teaching on prosperity and the financial blessings available to God’s children. I’ve pondered it many times and, over the past few months, God has even given me some messages on this topic. It’s really quite interesting for anyone who’ll take the time to listen and study it out.

  Much of what people believe is based on the tradition of me and manmade doctrines that do nothing but take away God’s power and God’s ability to bless His children financially. Much of what I was taught growing up was either wrong or not quite right and, the reason for this was bad theology. God has been opening my eyes to some wonderful things in this subject that I never knew; I wasn’t taught and have revolutionized my thinking.

  While I was praying today, God gave me some insight in this topic and gave me the first seven chapter topics for a book that I’m going to write. Some of the things He revealed to me while He was talking to me got me excited and made me see where I’ve been making a lot of mistakes in my own thinking and my own giving habits. God also showed me some of the things I’ve heard colleagues in the ministry say were actually right on target.

  The reason God has so many teaching this is because there will soon be a time when the only people who have money, who have the ability to take care of their family will be those who have been tithing, giving and planting seeds God’s way. There will soon be a time that only those who have placed their full faith and trust in God, who have been laying up stores and finances will have them. God will always take care of His people, but those who will learn these lessons and will do what God says do will have more than enough to weather the storm. Those who understand God’s way, will faithfully tithe and plant financial seeds in good ground and will put their full faith and trust in God; those are the ones who will have more than enough.

  I’m starting this book tonight and I hope to have it written and self published by the beginning of 2012. The things I’m writing about came from God and the Scriptural references will more than explain it. There is a biblical blessing over the finances of a Believer, and the sooner we figure this out, the sooner we’ll enjoy God’s blessing in all areas of our lives. If you’re sick and tired of being broke, not being able to save, not being able to bless people and ministries when you want to then this book will help you figure out what’s wrong and how to fix it immediately. 

  One of the things that God told me is that this book will be written in such a way that even a sinner, a person who isn’t versed in the Bible will be able to understand and put it into practice. This book will be easy to read and written in a non-theological way so that even kids can read it and know what to do.

  Will keep you guys posted on the books progress and when it will be available online. I hope and pray that this book is so successful that we can get a Christian publisher to pick it and publish it so mare people have an opportunity to read it, learn it and do it.

God bless you all richly,

Dave

Christians Need To Support Israel

  I don't know how to make this more clear, I support and love Israel and I also love the Jewish people. Our Bible says, in Romans 15:27 "...For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, their duty is also to minister unto them in carnal things." Simply put, God's chosen people are the sons and daughters of Abraham and these people are the Jewish people. They have preserved the Holy Scriptures for thousands of years and gave us the First Family of Christianity which is Jesus, Mary and Joseph. We Christians were graphed into the family because of Christ, our Lord and Savior.

  More than ever before, the Jewish people need our prayers, our love and our support. The angry clouds of war are gathering over the Holy Land as Russia and the Muslim nations surrounding Israel prepare to attack God's people. Daily, rockets are flying into villages and town wounding and killing men, women and children whose only crime was to be born Jewish and love the One true God. While the United Nations seems to always side with Israel's enemies, those enemies of Israel are waging a war against God's people. While Israel does its best to recognize all people's and their right to exist, the nations of the world still refuse to recognize this nation, the Jewish State of Israel that has given so much to the world.

  As Christians, it is our biblical obligation to pray for the peace of Jerusalem, to pray for the Jewish people and it is also our obligation to support Israel with our "carnal" things as well. Yes, I'm taking about supporting Israel with our finances whenever we feel led and whenever can. Support any number of the great organizations that help feed, clothe and shelter God's children. Support efforts to care of the orphans, widows or help organizations that provide help to those who are trying to migrate to Israel. No matter what you feel led to do, God will bless your efforts and you will be a blessing to those who need our support.

  Personally, I support Christians United For Israel with finances and I am also a member of this great organization. I have watched CUFI grow into the largest pro-Israel organization in the United Sates and have seen the results of the thousands of people who have given to support the many causes CUFI supports. While there are a great many organizations supporting Israel, this is the one I felt led to become a part of. My online church, The Home Church, is also a member of CUFI and supports CUFI with offerings, prayer and posting information they supply from Israel.

  Here's the main point I want to make: no matter what, Christians need to support Israel with our prayers. King David, the great warrior king of Israel, wrote in Pslams 122:6 "Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee." God made a promise here that you need to listen to and need to understand: God promised that HE will bless those that pray for Jerusalem (meaning Israel) and HE will bless those that support Israel with their finances. God promised Abraham this when He said " And I will bless them that bless thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed." The whole of the earth has been blessed because and by the Jewish people so, lets support them with our very best prayers and offerings. Don't let a day go by that you don't take a moment and pray for God's chosen people and for the City of Jerusalem.

God bless Jerusalem and the State of Israel: God bless and keep you,

Dave
