MoneyWalk 86: Should I give to special projects?

This program will help you undo financial bondage.

No doubt you have been faced with the question of whether or not you should give to specific ministry projects. Your thought about giving to a project might not be positive at the moment and you're wondering what you should do. Is it good to build a big edifice in the face of dying, hungry, and lost people surrounding you? Will the ministry really help lead people to Jesus? Will the missionary be a good steward of the money?

Initial thoughts like these may be rolling around in your head, but it's important to step back and consider whether or not the ministry leaders are guiding the ministry in the direction God wants it to go to do the things He wants it to do. A positive conclusion should lead you to ask the Holy Spirit what He would have you do in support of worthwhile ministry endeavors. The answer to these considerations will help you know what to do in support of such ministry.

There were special projects in the bible where leaders asked everyone to give money and resources to build the tabernacle, temple, city wall, and provide for the needs of a particular community. Those who were willing were led by the Holy Spirit to give in support of these initiatives. Your consistent tithing, offering, and prayer will directly and indirectly benefit the kingdom by ministering what is on God’s heart. So, by all means consider giving money, prayer, and/or service for every project that glorifies God, disciples His people, or leads the unsaved to Jesus Christ.

Please pray for this ministry and email any questions. May God bless you richly as you follow His plan!!!
