THE WEAKNESSES ON THE LOVE OF MONEY

What shall we say, then? Is the law sinful? Certainly not! Nevertheless, I would not have known what sin was had it not been for the law. For I would not have known what coveting really was if the law had not said, “You shall not covet.” But sin, seizing the opportunity afforded by the commandment, produced in me every kind of coveting. For apart from the law, sin was dead.」
‭‭Romans‬ ‭7:7-8‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Will a mere mortal rob God? Yet you rob me. “But you ask, ‘How are we robbing you?’ “In tithes and offerings. You are under a curse—your whole nation—because you are robbing me. Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this,” says the Lord Almighty, “and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that there will not be room enough to store it.」
‭‭Malachi‬ ‭3:8-10‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.”」
‭‭Luke‬ ‭6:38‬ ‭NIV‬‬

If you give to the work of the Lord by teasponfuls, God will bless you
by teasponfuls . If you will give to the work of the Lord by cupfuls, God
will bless you by cupfuls. If you give to the work of the Lord by
bucketfuls , God will bless you by bucketfuls.
- " Whatever measure you use to give -large or small - will be use to
measure back to you."

Conclusion: Important questions to ask?
What is your relationship to your money? Do you have your money or does it have you? Do you or the Lord determines how you will use your money? Does the amount of money you have determine your happiness...your style of living? How do you use your money? Are you generous toward God only when you have a surplus? Does your desire for money control you? Although these questions make us uncomfortable, they make us aware of how we relate to our money.
