11 “Beware that you do not forget the LORD your God by not keeping His commandments, His judgments, and His statutes which I command you today, 12 lest—when you have eaten and are full, and have built beautiful houses and dwell in them; 13 and when your herds and your flocks multiply, and your silver and your gold are multiplied, and all that you have is multiplied; 14 when your heart is lifted up, and you forget the LORD your God who brought you out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage;17 then you say in your heart, ‘My power and the might of my hand have gained me this wealth.’
18 “And you shall remember the LORD your God, for it is He who gives you power to get wealth" Deuteronomy 18: 11 - 17, 18
I do thank God that He has been working on the area of giving for quiet some time now..and more than that, He has demonstrated His supernatural gift of provision time and time again (ask me about my wedding some day..quite a few miracles there!)
I have however been struggling with the net vs gross issue, partly because of the forced saving rule in the company I work with. Not that I am unthankful, goodness no. I just need to take the extra step of faith in giving ALL my tithe into the storehouse of God, as said in Malachi.
I also struggle with a single major debt that has crippled my ability to give all. I am trusting God that in this particular week I will be able to learn how to shake off those shackles and walk free.
