Man judges after the external appearance, but God looks at the HEART (1Sam 16:7). God will manifest His powe on behalf of those whose HEART is PERFECT (loyal) towards Him (2Chron 16:9). “The WILLING (wholehearted) and obedient will eat of the good of the land” (Isaiah 1:19).

We need (1) to SUBMIT to God and His will for our finances, and then (2) take AUTHORITY over satan concerning our finances (Jam 4:7). God created all things for man’s benefit (1Tim 6:17), but the god of this world actively resists God's will, so we need to know how to exercise our authority over him.

God’s PURPOSE is to PROSPER us, so He can fulfil His plans through us. It is a blessing to receive by faith and a greater blessing to give by love (Gen 12:3, Deut 8:18, Acts 20:35, Phil 4:15, Psalm 112, 2Cor 8:9, 9:8-11). The 2 go together. Our faith to receive works best when motivated by love (Gal 5:6).

By giving the firstfruits we acknowledge God as the Owner of our money and this puts it under His blessing. Only the Lord can define the First Fruits and He says it is the TITHE. Tithing is before the Law (Gen 14:20, 28:22), in the Law (Lev 27:30), and in the New Testament (Matt 23:23, Lk 11:42, Hebr 7:1-8).
