Tithes and Offering Exhortation - Matthew 6:19-21



Main Verse – Matthew 6:19-21



WHERE ARE OUR PRIORITIES


Plain Truth: Jesus teaches us the importance of prioritizing heavenly treasures over earthly possessions and how our treasure placement impacts our hearts and priorities.



THOUGHTS


Eternal Perspective:

-Jesus encourages us not to place our primary focus on accumulating material wealth and possessions on earth, as these are susceptible to decay, theft, and loss. Instead, we should adopt an eternal perspective in all we do, even in our giving, prioritizing heavenly treasures.



Heart Alignment:

-The verse emphasizes that where our treasure is, our heart will also be. This means our priorities and affections are closely tied and shown by where we invest our time, resources (even our finances), and energy.



Generosity and Kingdom Investment:

-Storing up treasures in heaven doesn't mean ignoring practical responsibilities or not planning for the future. Instead, it calls us to use our resources, time, and abilities wisely, giving them generously to invest in God's Kingdom and purposes. When we do, we store treasures in heaven that will endure.



PRACTICALITIES OF GIVING


A. Before you come and bring your tithe/offering (pray and ask God what you should give).


B. When you give. Thank Him for the ability. Thank Him for the finances to give. Do it with honor and worship in your heart.


C. Give in faith with expectation.



CONCLUSION


In summary, this passage urges us to evaluate our priorities and how we allocate our resources, in this context, our giving and finances. Let us ask God to help us so that our hearts will be aligned with God's Kingdom.

Very heartfelt post! Matthew 6:19-21 really reminds us of the importance of investing in heavenly things, not earthly things. It inspires us to think about where we direct our hearts and resources - after all, real wealth is not stored in banks, but in deeds of love and faith. And in this context, it is interesting how even financial instruments can serve good. For example, I use Paybis to easily do crypto exchange and transfer funds to charities around the world. I often use the https://paybis.com/buy-polkadot/ operation, because the main thing is the intention, and technology only helps to act faster and more widely
