Do you pay your tithing? It`s an agreement with God. This is the only place in the Bible where God said you could test it. Some people think that the 10% of their income is too important to give you to God, but they want more of His blessing. The tenth is an alliance. If you can`t give God $200 out of $2000, why is he going to raise you to $4000? If you were God, would you wake him up? It is easier to give 200 euros out of 2000 euros than to give 400 euros of 4000 euros. That`s the way it is. What is it? His baptism said “Yes” to a relationship with God. In baptism, you accepted the relationship with God and you made an agreement with God. Baptism was not just something your body did. It`s also something your heart has done. When honourable people make honorable agreements, life and relationships are blessed.
When agreements are ignored, violated or abused, lives and relationships become increasingly miserable. The agreement was welcomed by God, because Jephtar won when he was not to be military. If we voluntarily or negligently refuse the obligation of our agreements, if divorces, jobs are lost, if services are abolished, if driver`s licenses are withdrawn, if bank credits are recalled, if social benefits are abolished and if we can lose citizens` rights. If you have noticed in the verses above, when we go with God, he goes with us; If we march against God, he goes against us. It would be wise for them to ask themselves, “Am I going to agree with God – or do I disagree with God?” I pray that we all want to walk with God – in accordance with His word, which is guided by His Spirit – using His Word to study our path with Him. Because then we will really understand what we hear in Amos 3:3, will you be honorable in life, but something seemed to have foiled this step? God is able to bring back your honor and even greater. Jephtar was perhaps the first son; He could have been the leader of his brothers and sisters. But God made him the leader of the nation. What you must do is to establish an agreement with God, that you will not deprive yourself of the honor he has given you, but that you will use that honor for his own glory. Do you understand that you agreed with God when you were baptized? At baptism, do you know that you agree to maintain the relationship with God for the rest of your life? What is the agreement between the temple of God and the idols? For we are the temple of the living God; As God said: I will make my abode among them, and I will walk among them, and I will be their God, and they will be my people.
