13 CHRIST HATH REDEEMED US FROM
THE CURSE OF THE LAW, BEING MADE
A CURSE FOR US: FOR IT IS WRITTEN,
CURSED IS EVERY ONE THAT HANGETH
ON A TREE.
29 AND JESUS ANSWERED AND SAID,
VERILY I SAY UNTO YOU, THERE IS NO
MAN THAT HATH LEFT HOUSE, OR
BRETHREN, OR SISTERS, OR FATHER,
OR MOTHER, OR WIFE, OR CHILDREN,
OR LANDS, FOR MY SAKE, AND THE
GOSPEL'S,
30 BUT HE SHALL RECEIVE AN
HUNDREDFOLD NOW IN THIS TIME,
HOUSES, AND BRETHREN, AND
SISTERS, AND MOTHERS, AND
CHILDREN, AND LANDS, WITH
PERSECUTIONS; AND IN THE WORLD
TO COME ETERNAL LIFE.
22 THE BLESSING OF THE LORD, IT
MAKETH RICH, AND HE ADDETH NO
SORROW
WITH IT.
No, we're laying up in store for the time
we need to lay hold of it (1 Timothy
6:19).
The first rule in withdrawing from any
account is this: You have to make a
deposit before you can make a
withdrawal. Duh! We know that's true
in the natural but we forget about it
when it comes to heavenly things. What
is the law behind it? Sowing and
reaping.
What are the different forms of
depositing? It all starts with tithing. If
you're not a tither, your other deposits
are not being recorded in your account.
All the laws of prosperity and increase
depend on THE BLESSING of The
LORD, and THE BLESSING is tied to
the tithe. Remember Galatians 3:13?
And Proverbs 10:22?
The second form of depositing is
investing in the gospel. Jesus talked
about this in Mark 10:29-30:
My, my! If I had time, I could preach a
week on that alone! The third form of
depositing is to give to the poor.
Proverbs 19:17 says, "He that hath pity
upon the poor lendeth unto The LORD;
and that which he hath given will he pay
him again."
The fourth form of depositing into your
heavenly account is to give as a praise
to God. Look at 1 Chronicles 16:29:
"Give unto The LORD the glory due
unto his name: bring an offering, and
come before him: worship The LORD in
the beauty of holiness."
