Finances

"'Bring all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be food in My house, and try Me now in this,' says the LORD of hosts, 'If I will not open for you the windows of heaven and pour out for you such blessing that there will not be room enough to receive it'" (Malachi 3:10).

To properly manage our money, we must first acknowledge its source—God. From there, the Bible explains an age-old strategy for making the most out of what we've been given.
