God is more than able and will meet all our needs ( Matthew 6:25-34 and Philippians 4:19)
Be responsible for the care of God’s house and kingdom work (Exodus 35:22 and Malachi 3:10)
Care for the poor, particularly widows and orphans (Proverbs 22:9 and Luke 10:34-35)
Work hard so as to be better able to bless others (Acts 20:35 and Romans 15:1)
When giving, give cheerfully, generously and without fanfare (Matthew 6:1-3 and 2 Corinthians 9:7)
