Offering for February 22, 2025
Michigan Advance Partners
Did you ever wonder why God created the elements of the world in a specific order? In His divine plan, He created the world in logical sequence to prepare a home for mankind. He created mankind in His image and created the Sabbath for man so He can spend special time with them. But sin disrupted this plan.
God sent Jesus to redeem us and restore what was lost. Through the work of Christ and the Holy Spirit, God uses the Sabbath and stewardship of time, talents, treasures, temple, and testimony, to restore this relationship and develop our character. One way God prepares us to handle His eternal riches is through tithes and offerings. Giving regularly and faithfully is important because it develops kindness and selflessness.
When we give systematically, we become more generous like Christ. However, giving isn't about expecting rewards here on earth but knowing we're partaking in Christ's eternal glory. Giving regularly makes us grateful and humble as we contribute to the well-being of others. It recreates a new attitude in us that giving is more satisfying than receiving. Most importantly, giving is not about charity; it's a way to worship and show our faith, trust, and love for God.
Today and through the Holy Spirit, let’s participate in Christ’s eternal glory through our tithes and offerings.
