Work and MoneySample

The Bible speaks with compassion about those who cannot work. This is why the early Christian deacons had to continually make wise and balanced financial decisions.

The issue at that time was determining which widows, orphans, and other believers actually needed the resources that were available because of the hard work and generosity of their fellow Christians.

In summary, God’s system for financial support has always been closely associated with the members of His church, rather than the world’s general population or through a government’s secular programs. The Apostle Paul reassuringly wrote,“… my God shall supply all your needs according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 4:19)

We are to look to God as we share His resources with our brothers and sisters in Christ.

Would you ask God for awareness today of those around you? Would He have you share His resources that He has temporarily entrusted to you with someone in need?
