THE LAST LAW OF PROSPERITY I WILL MENTION IS TO “HONOUR THE LORD WITH THY SUBSTANCE, AND WITH THE FIRST FRUITS OF ALL THINE INCREASE” (PROV. 3:9-10).
If we do this we have the promise, “So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine.”

<p>THE LAST LAW OF PROSPERITY I WILL MENTION IS TO “HONOUR THE LORD WITH THY SUBSTANCE, AND WITH THE FIRST FRUITS OF ALL THINE INCREASE” (PROV. 3:9-10).</p>
<p>If we do this we have the promise, “So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine.”</p>
<p>*NOTE.  This post has been corrected since it&#8217;s original posting on Wednesday, August 19th.  A reader commented on the original post pointing out the fact that &#8220;Honouring the Lord with thy substance&#8221;, as it relates to today&#8217;s Church, is a matter of one&#8217;s heart vs. any obligation under the Old Covenant Law.  There&#8217;s no doubt in my mind that God does bless a cheerful giver, but to grab a hold of the promises of Malachi 3:10 would constitute the acceptance of the whole Old Covenant Law.</p>
<p>With that said&#8230; </p>
<p>The question to consider is not whether to give or not to give, but whether our giving is done under grace or are we obligated to pay a tithe (one tenth) of our income under the law.</p>
<p>TITHING is under the law of the Old Covenant, and GIVING is under the grace of the New Covenant. </p>
<p>Romans 6:14 says, &#8220;&#8230;for ye are not under the law, but under grace.&#8221;</p>
<p>Every believer in the Lord Jesus Christ has the privilege of giving &#8220;&#8230; as God has prospered him&#8221; (1 Cor. 16:2), and &#8220;&#8230; according as he purposeth in his hear&#8230;&#8221; (2 Cor. 9:7). </p>
<p>We should give of a &#8221;willing mind&#8221; (2 Cor. 8:12),  and cheerfully and freely (2 Cor. 9:7). </p>
<p>Every believer in Christ has the privilege of giving to the Lord&#8217;s work because we have received His unspeakable gift (2 Cor. 9:15), and have given ourselves to Him.  There is nothing wrong with giving a &#8220;tenth&#8221;, so long as it is understood that we are not &#8220;legally&#8221; bound to any tithing ordinance of the Old Covenant.</p>
<p>There you have it.  We cannot practice these 10 laws of prosperity without being prosperous. </p>
<p>If you want to prosper, set your house in order.  In other words, set your priorities.  What&#8217;s the most important to you? </p>
<p>Follow faithfully the 10 laws of prosperity.</p>
<p>Soon God will lead you into blessings that you never thought possible. </p>
<p>So there you have it… the 10 laws of prosperity!</p>
<p>Dig Deep!</p>
