READ: Ezekiel 44:30
“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.” – Matthew 6:33
Tithing Christians fulfil the law of prioritisation, which creates wealth. There is no prosperous person who
does not fulfil the law of prioritisation. When you are young, you need to prioritise your education, and put first things first. Without prioritising education, your youthful years will pass away and you will be bereft of a much-needed education. You will therefore inflict upon yourself a severe debilitating poverty that lasts a lifetime. Failing to prioritise education in your youthful life can lead to poverty.
Failing to prioritise in any sphere of life always leads to failure. If you filled your stomach with sweets first and were therefore unable to eat proper food, you would not have a balanced diet and you would not be healthy. Once again, it is all about priorities.
Companies that fail to remember their priorities always end up in disaster. Churches can likewise forget the reasons why they exist and start to emphasize secular things like success and wealth. But the priority of the church is Christ Jesus and the salvation of this world.
The ability to get your priorities right is important and will always lead to wealth. Tithing presents an important test in prioritisation. When a person learns to pay his tithes, he learns to put God first. Tithing helps you acquire the habit of dealing with the most important thing first. This habit of prioritisation will extend to other areas and lead to success in life. This is one of the reasons why tithers become wealthy people.
