Romans 9:13 As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated. The story behind this scripture was when Esau despised his birthright for lentils.  The birthright meant he would inherit a double potion from his father Isaac.  Many believers are indifferent to the blessings that God gives but that should not be so with you. It is God's will for you to be blessed for blessings accompany our salvation. The blessing of Abraham rests on all children of faith in Christ. We need to appropriate it in our life by speaking, living and acting in line with the Word. The blessing includes cattle, silver, gold etc. Our fathers in the faith were walking in the blessings. Since you are of the same faith as them, if you believe in the power of the blessing, it will too manifest in your life.

1 Kings 17:8-15 And the word of the LORD came unto him, saying, Arise, get thee to Zarephath, which [belongeth] to Zidon, and dwell there: behold, I have commanded a widow woman there to sustain thee. So he arose and went to Zarephath. And when he came to the gate of the city, behold, the widow woman [was] there gathering of sticks: and he called to her, and said, Fetch me, I pray thee, a little water in a vessel, that I may drink. And as she was going to fetch [it], he called to her, and said, Bring me, I pray thee, a morsel of bread in thine hand. And she said, [As] the LORD thy God liveth, I have not a cake, but an handful of meal in a barrel, and a little oil in a cruse: and, behold, I [am] gathering two sticks, that I may go in and dress it for me and my son, that we may eat it, and die. And Elijah said unto her, Fear not; go [and] do as thou hast said: but make me thereof a little cake first, and bring [it] unto me, and after make for thee and for thy son. For thus saith the LORD...

Proverbs 3:5-10 Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil. It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones. Honour the LORD with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase: So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine. Many use the above scriptures in asking God for direction in everyday affairs of life but do not realise that giving mentioned in that scripture has alot to do with trust. When one doesn't trust God, they won't give to Him. Like the parable Jesus gave, they would take God as a hard master who reaps where He hasn't sowed.   There's a widow woman in scripture who the Bible says gave all her living yet the rich gave only a portion from their abundance. The latter gave what couldn't reach them a place of believing Go...

How do you get to a point of trusting a friend? This cannot be a one-off but it comes through a consistent set of things you do together. One of those areas that binds relations are the areas of finances, giving and receiving from eachother.  Man for some reason is attached to their money perhaps because it takes effort to make it. It becomes a treasure by default to him or her. Secondly man has placed a certain value for money unlike other things. Society collectively places value in certain things and on other things it does n...
