Financial Freedom Series - Tithe First.

To operate the principles of Biblical economics in your life, not only must your priorities concerning God be proper, but your priorities in your giving must be clear.

A major question many Christians ask as they begin to put their financial house in order is: "DO I TITHE BEFORE OR AFTER I PAY MY BILLS?"

Many people will pay all of their bills, and then, after all of their financial obligations are met, they will tithe to God out of the remaining money. That may be common practice, but it is not what the Bible teaches.

...that you shall take some of the first of all the produce of the ground, which you shall bring from your landthat the Lord your God is giving you, and put it in a basket and go to the place where the Lord your God chooses to make His Name abide.(v5) And you shall answer and say before the Lord your God... (v10) And now, behold, I have brought the firstfruits of the land, which you, O Lord, have given me. Then you shall set it before the Lord your God, and worship before the Lord your God. (v12) When you have finished laying aside all the Tithe of your Increase...
Deuteronomy 26:2,5,10,12

The process of bringing the FIRSTFRUITS to God (before paying your bills) is called "TITHING". God's Word says you should Tithe First, before you do anything else with your fruit (income)!

You may say, "But brother Caly, I I Tithe first, I won't have enough to pay my Bills."

Think how full of unbelief that statment is. If you believe that, you are not believing the Tithe will open the windows of heaven to you.

You see, TITHING establishes a new relationship between you and God. It brings you before the open windows of heaven. Literally, this means the treasure house of God is now open to you. If you put God first, as He says to do, surely He will Bless You!

Please be wise enough to see that if you Tithe and make Offerings after all the Bills are paid, you are leaving yourself at the mercy of your Bills. (Maybe that's what has been your problem this far - However you can correct it now!)
With this action, your tithe and offerings are subject to and under the control of your bills.

If you Tithe First, and give a generous Offering, then your Bills come under the Control of your Tithe and Offerings.
Many are struggling to pay their bills because they not doing what God tells them to do! It's not God's fault, but their Ignorance, and many times deception by the enemy.

Malachi 3:10-11 Speaks of open windows for Tithing and uninterrupted Harvest for your Offerings. As long as you have Bills, ALWAYS keep them in their proper place behind the TITHE. Put God's Business first and foremost, and He will put your Business First!
