The 1st revelation for our finances is we are not the true owners of our wealth. It all belongs to God. We're the stewards of God's resources, temporarily entrusted to us to meet our needs and use to help people and extend His Kingdom. We'll give an account and if faithful be rewarded with true eternal riches.

In so doing we put all our money under His blessing (Proverbs 3:9-10). We see examples from Scripture showing the importance of First Fruits.

Our motivation determines if a work is a good work or dead work. Do we do it for the praise, reward and glory of God or man?
