#58  IDENTITY IN FINANCES:
 Multigenerational Giving  

 

 

  

There is a plan of economy presented in the Bible that is not influenced by recessions, depressions, topless inflation, or the value of the global dollar. It is God's financial plan and economy that is of utmost importance. It involves the control and manage-ment of all of the affairs of mankind, including man's choices on how to spend his money. God's plan of spending has very little to do with the benefits here on earth, but rather building up "eternal weight of glory" in His heavenly bank account. In the end, God's plan actually reconciles with all of earth's treasures, resources, capacities, as well as, man's role in stewarding each. This must include the eternal purpose in the mind of God, as He created all. In other words, money should reflect the face of God. If it doesn't, the earth and all that is in it, including mankind, become out of balance.

 

THIRD PURPOSE OF MONEY - MULTIGENERATIONAL GIVING

 

Man's economic systems collapse because he has been selfish in his spending and has failed to include in his "economic principles" those matters vital to the kingdom of God - the Four Purposes of Money. Man's greatest error in handling money is that he has not reckoned with his responsibilities to the God of the universe, the One who made all resources. The other big mistake is that mankind does not reckon his responsibility to human kind - marriage, family, community, state, nation, and then, the world. Instead, he has trafficked his available resources to his immediate advantage and then has the gall to sign the name of Christ to his reasons of insanity. The result has been the destruction of resources neces-sary to the whole family of God.

 

Our level of giving reveals our depth level of spirituality with our Heavenly Father. If we have a greedy eye, our whole worldview will be greedy - what I get out of life. On the other hand, if we are giving and generous, our worldview will not only be a biblical worldview, but it will be transformational.

 

"'Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves do not break in or steal; for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. The eye is the lamp of the body; so then if your eye is clear, your whole body will be full of light. But if your eye is bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light that is in you is darkness, how great is the darkness!'" (Matt. 6:19-23).

 

The price for mankind NOT obeying the foundational rules of God's plan of economy is very high. If you and I do not submit ourselves to... read more here
