My son, do not forget my law,
But let your heart keep my commands;
For length of days and long life
And peace they will add to you.
Let not mercy and truth forsake you;
Bind them around your neck,
Write them on the tablet of your heart,
And so find favor and high esteem
In the sight of God and man.
Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
And lean not on your own understanding;
In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He shall direct your paths.
Do not be wise in your own eyes;
Fear the Lord and depart from evil.
It will be health to your flesh,
And strength to your bones.
Honor the Lord with your possessions,
And with the firstfruits of all your increase;
So your barns will be filled with plenty,
And your vats will overflow with new wine.
Proverbs 3:1-10
Basic instructions to live by. Let us be sure to follow, and especially to honor our Lord with our possessions and with the first fruits of all our increase. Then our barns will be filled with plenty and our vats will overflow with new wine. Amen!
Now I say, even without the conditional blessing above, we should still honor our Lord with our possessions and with the first fruits of all our increase. Do you agree?
