A NEW COMMITMENT
“Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the Lord of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.”
Malachi 3:10 (King James Version)
Many people will make resolutions for the New Year, things that they want to do. Instead of making resolutions, let us make a new commitment to serve Jesus and to give God everything that belongs to Him. Our Scripture verse tells us to bring all the tithes into the storehouse. Yet, many times we don’t do it.
We forget or aren’t aware that bringing all the tithes into the storehouse doesn’t mean just giving our money. We are to give our talents. If we can sing, then we need to be singing in the choir. If we can play the piano, we should play the piano. If we can teach, we should be teaching Sunday School.
However, it’s not enough to just do things for Jesus on Sunday. We should be doing them every day of the week. There are twenty four hours in a day so two hours and forty minutes belong to Jesus. Can you honestly say that you give Him two hours and forty minutes of your time every day?
Will you make a new commitment to set aside at least two hours and forty minutes every day for Jesus? Let’s use this time just telling Jesus how much we love Him and appreciate Him. It will make Him very happy. If ever someone deserves to be happy, it is our precious Saviour.
