Tithing with a heart of love is a practical way in which we honor God, work with Him as our partner, and receive the prosperity that He desires for our lives. Tithing has never been improved upon except by increasing the proportion, and that is abundant sharing.
How do we define prosperity? It depends on whether we are defining according to God's word or the world's ideas. There is a worldly prosperity and there is a spiritual prosperity. What produces spiritual prosperity? Meditating on and obeying God's word; faith in God and His word; being content with Godliness and what He has given us. What is the value of spiritual prosperity? It abides and produces true success.

Why is giving so important in our walk with God? Giving: makes me more like God; draws me closer to God, strengthens my faith; is an investment for eternity; and reveals my spiritual maturity.
As born-again believers, we have been given by God all sufficiency in all things so that we can abound to every good work. One good work we can do out of the love and thankfulness in our hearts to God is to serve God's Word to others.
We have a great, big, wonderful God Who wants to bless all of mankind, as evidenced by immutable laws He set in creation governing financial freedom and prosperity. Those born again of God’s spirit have the legal right to claim His blessings in Christ. When we know from God’s Word our legal rights in Christ and walk out on them, we can live the abundant life and be powerful witnesses for the true God.
Living within one’s means is spending only what we have available to us, that is, not spending more than we earn. Having a mind-set of contentment and of not comparing ourselves with others can help us operate the financial stewardship principle of living within our means.
As we keep God first in our hearts, our needs will be met and our lives will be abundant. We can have full and abundant lives—physically, spiritually, and financially. Let’s serve God and enjoy full and abundant lives.
God has great care for our lives, and He is ready and able to provide all that we need in life. All born-again believers have easy access to God and can go to Him with confidence and boldness. He is our Father. He loves us. We truly have the greatest Dad of all times—God, our heavenly Father.
When we encounter individuals who exhibit unkindness or even hostility toward us, how does God want us to respond? Let’s see the benefits of responding with God’s love and goodness.
We can trust God to be our sufficiency. He is able and willing to supply for us both now and in the future. He is well equipped to do this because His ability to supply is unlimited. God has always taken care of those who trust in Him, and He will remain faithful to this commitment, regardless of any conditions in the senses realm.
Each year The Way International celebrates the day of Pentecost. Since that historic day, it has been available to be born again, to manifest power from on high, and to be witnesses for the Lord Jesus Christ. Let’s celebrate this day of Pentecost!
Jesus Christ is the mediator between God and men. Jesus Christ made it possible for man to be reconciled (no longer separated!) with God. We never have to feel separated from God—Jesus Christ made it possible for all who believe to be at one with God.
Born-again believers have power to walk as confidently and boldly as Christ did. We need not be deterred by intimidation tactics; we can be courageous, unyielding, and steadfast on God’s Word. We can walk boldly without fear!
Just a Closer Walk with Jesus was originally designed for a Bible study, then used for a women’s talk, and finally put on a Bible study blog. The slideshow presents relevant Bible verses in a memorable way to help Christians understand and deepen their walk with Jesus. Enjoy and God bless!

Renewed in Grace
In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.
