Mal 3:3-4
says, “And he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver: and he shall
purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver, that they may offer
unto the LORD an offering in righteousness. Then shall the offering of Judah
and Jerusalem be pleasant unto the LORD, as in the days of old, and as in
former years.”
Some offerings
and acts of giving in the church have not yielded any reward not because God is
a liar but the giver’s state of heart determines the reward he gets when he
offers unto the Lord. There is a need for holiness before our offerings can be
pleasant and acceptable unto Him.
God is saying
in Prov 8:20-21, “I lead in the way of righteousness, in the midst of the paths
of judgment: That I may cause those that love me to inherit substance; and I
will fill their treasures.” What God has
for you, no smartness of yours can get it for you. There is no amount of scheming that can take
you to the level God is planning for you. The first requirement is holiness.
Psa 112:4
says, “Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness: he is gracious,
and full of compassion, and righteous.” There’s no embarrassment or disgrace
for the righteous, the Lord will always make a way for Him. Colorful and bright
is the future of the righteous. Matt 5:6 says, “Blessed are they which do
hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.”
Wealth and
divine provision is from God and God alone. Every other supposed source is fake
and can never match God’s. Embrace holy living, stay away from sin and the
wealthy will start calling you wealthy. Abraham walked perfectly before God
before God prospered him.
As you
embrace holiness from today, before you knock on doors, they open in Jesus
Name. Amen
