“Your source is God’s riches in glory in Christ Jesus. You are his little one and he knows that you need all these things.”

Matthew 6:33
But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.

Just like the ebb and flow of many phenomena in nature, so the economics of humanity ebbs and flows with regularity. We’re all happy when the world markets flow but panic when there is a global economic ebb.

As followers of Jesus Christ, we don’t place our confidence in man’s monetary management. Jesus was a great economist. He addressed the issues of everyday needs by saying things like, “Do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on,” adding “your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things.” By the Holy Spirit Apostle Paul wrote, “And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus.”

Indeed, stock markets are teetering, pension schemes are wobbling and currency markets are fluctuating but our confidence is not in such things. Our confidence is in the Creator. At a time of economic upheaval, don’t give up, look up and set your mind on things above not on earthly things. Lift up your eyes. Your help comes from the Lord who made heaven and earth.

I encourage you this week, during the global economic crisis, to trust God to continually meet your needs. The world markets are not your source. Your source is God’s glorious riches in Christ Jesus. You are his little one and your Father knows that you need all these things. His promise to you today is, all these things you need for life and living shall be added to you if you first focus on his righteousness and his kingdom principles; his purposes for your life.

God-tracking is having confidence in the economics of Glory.

(I encourage you to read the scriptures below.)

SO, DON’T GIVE UP, LOOK UP & PRAY

“I place my confidence in you, O Lord, to meet all my needs according to your riches in glory, by Christ Jesus.”

“O Lord, I panic when I watch the news and see how the world is swaying on the edge of global recession. I admit that I have filled my mind with too much doom and gloom. I’m sorry. I lift up my eyes above the newspapers and TV screen to fix them on Jesus who meets my needs. I seek first your kingdom purposes for my life. I have a bank account in the bank of Glory! So, I place my confidence in you, O Lord, to meet all my needs according to your riches in glory, by Christ Jesus. Amen.”

GOD-TRACKING IS BEING A FAITHFUL AND A CHEERFUL GIVER

Philippians 4:19

And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.

“God has promised to meet all our needs according to his riches in Christ Jesus. If you know Jesus as Lord, then you are in Christ Jesus. If you are in Christ Jesus, you are found in the same place as the riches of God!”

Tracking God’s will requires faithfulness in every aspect of life, not withstanding, giving. Historically, the Church has been accused of money-grabbing. This is a shame. Indeed, there were times in Church history where the institution of the Church (protestant and catholic) has demanded money from its adherents. That too, is a shame. However, God’s word makes it plain that giving is fundamental to Christian living. Afterall, God gave Jesus and Jesus gave his life. Therefore, as God-trackers, I believe we need to be faithful in our giving toward the furtherance of God’s kingdom. Jesus promised, “Give, and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you.” And he who promised is faithful.

By the grace of God, since receiving our first pay cheques, Karen and I have tithed. At times it was tough… very tough! I remember when I was studying for the ministry and had no regular income. I was 30 at the time with 2 small children to care for. Between us, Karen and I had 9 part-time jobs. Our income was low, but we believed it was still necessary to tithe. God was faithful to his promise to meet all our needs.

One Sunday evening, back in South Africa during my days at Bible school, I was at church leading worship while Karen and the kids were at home. My son Ryan, about 5 at the time, loved performing gymnastic feats. That evening he ran into his bedroom and somersaulted onto his bed. His feet promptly crashed through a large window. Thankfully, the curtains were closed so he did not hurt himself. “Ryan, what have you done!” came the cry from his mom. “It’ll take 200 rand to fix that window!” A few minutes later Karen heard Ryan and his sister, Kerryn praying, “Dear Lord, sorry Ry broke the window. Please give mom R200 to fix it.”

After church, while I was packing away my guitar, someone handed me an envelope. “Thanks,” I muttered and promptly popped it into my pocket. When I arrived home and Karen told me what had happened, I remembered envelope in my pocket. Opening it I found ten R20 notes. He who promised was faithful.

God has called us to be cheerful givers. God has promised that if we sow bountifully we will also reap bountifully. You see, God has promised to meet all our needs according to his riches in Christ Jesus. If you know Jesus as Lord, then you are in Christ Jesus. If you are in Christ Jesus, you are found in the same place as the riches of God! So, be faithful in your giving as you seek to track his will for your life.

God-tracking is being a faithful and a cheerful giver.

READ ALL ABOUT IT

Luke 6:38

Hebrews 10:23

2 Corinthians 9:6-9

DON’T GIVE UP, LOOK UP & PRAY

I commit my life and calling to you. Help me to track your will, every day.

“O Lord, thank you so much for your faithful blessings and provision in my life. Thank you that you meet all my needs according to your abundance in Jesus. Thank you that, as you help me to be faithful in my giving, you are faithful in pouring out your blessings into my lap, pressed down, shaken together and running over. Today I choose to be faithful and cheerful in my giving as I trust you to be faithful to your promises to meet my needs. Amen.”
