9 Honor the LORD with your wealth and with the firstfruits of all your produce;10 then your barns will be filled with plenty, and your vats will be bursting with wine.
I once heard someone say that if you want to see where someone's priorities are, look at their bank account. Do they long for nice things, financial safety, or something greater? We are to give God our best, not what is left over after life's bills are paid. The larger question for me is this: does honoring the Lord with our wealth mean giving to the church, giving to the local community, giving to the internationally needy? Perhaps this is where Godly discernment comes in.
