FREED UP: To DO what God wants us to do, GO where God wants us to go, SERVE where God wants us to serve and GIVE how God wants us to give
Financial Freedom Has Savings
Financial Freedom Has Margin
The cure for financial slavery: CONTENTMENT
What can we do with money?
Spend it. Save it. Give it.
Malachi 1: Israelites brought their leftovers to God
God not honored by getting less than our best
The conflict we face everyday is between God and our possessions
Definition of “tithe”: Ten percent
Not about getting our money but getting our heart
Our heart ALWAYS follows our money
Malachi 3:10: A promise to Israel (not us)
Malachi 3 Reflect a principle
Principle: When we put God first, God moves and acts and provides
Honor God first (not third)
About priority and not money
An open or closed door to God
Wise plan: GSL (Give, Save, Live on Rest)
Give FIRST
Be systematic (Choose a percentage)
FREED UP: To DO what God wants us to do, GO where God wants us to go, SERVE where God wants us to serve and GIVE how God wants us to give
