“Should people cheat God? Yet you have cheated me!
“But you ask, ‘What do you mean? When did we ever cheat you?’
“You have cheated me of the tithes and offerings due to me. You are under a curse. Malachi 3:8–9 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation
Yes Jehovah still considers tithing a duty ( which is an act of love and appreciation for the gifts Jehovah blesses us with ).
So, when you refuse to tithe you are being arrogant and ungrateful towards Jehovah.
Why should He bless you if you do not appreciate either Him nor the gifts?
Now when we give we are to give wisely at the guidance of The Holy Spirit.
So instead of giving for a so called charity where the CEO makes millions and you fan your ego by feeling good perhaps The Holy Spirit will guide you to give to support a Christian Bible School.
If you are poor The Holy Spirit may guide you to help clean up the animal waste at a local animal adoption agency ( it is not pretty nor glorious but they do need the help ).
Give, but give wisely. Joseph- Anthony a son of Jehovah
Prayer: Please Jehovah El Deah (God of knowledge. Romans 11:33 ) bless me with the knowledge of where, when and how much to give so that it will go to the proper places You desire it to go. I humble request this in the name of He who knew His gift to us could only be accomplished on the cross, Jesus Christ. Amen

Be still in the presence of the Lord, and wait patiently for him to act. Don’t worry about evil people who prosper or fret about their wicked schemes. Stop being angry! Turn from your rage! Do not lose your temper it only leads to harm. Psalm 37:7-8 The Holy Bible, New Living Translation
I have gone through it numerous times through out my life.
There have been folks that are shifty, swindlers that are getting away with cheating others, including myself, out of money. They arrogantly laugh and brag about it.
In tears of frustration and anger on my knees I called out to the Lord for vengeance and justice.
Yet, nothing was done to punish the perpetrator.
Then, some where down the line, BANG, it hits them. It is total devastation in their lives.
They lose their wealth, they lose their home, they lose their marriage and family and, they lose their health. It is terrifying how total and complete the justice of Jehovah is when He strikes.
Now, when someone is abusing me, I just have faith in the Lord that He will help me get through the unpleasant experience and that Divine justice will be done.
So, when someone is abusing you or those you love and care about, do not get angry and try to get revenge. Leave it in the Lords strong, wise hands.
Justice, true justice, will triumph over evil every time. Joseph a son of Jehovah
Prayer: Thank you Jehovah El Nekamoth (Psalms 18:47 GOD that Avengeth ) that justice, true justice will always be given out by Your strong hands of true justice. I exalt You in the name of the Supreme Judge, Jesus Christ. Amen

Hottempered people must pay the penalty. If you rescue them once, you will have to do it again.Proverbs 19:19 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation
This applies not just to hot tempered folks but also to those withaddictions whether that be substance abuse or whether it be lack of maturity in handling money.
If you keep on bailing them out, they will never take responsiblyfor their action and thus never mature. You are doing them more harm than good.
Sad to say but it is true that mothers and grandmothers are the worst offenders of this.
Prayer Please Jehovah Jireth ( Genesis 22:14 – The LORD Shall Provide ) bless me to have faith in Your provisions in my loved ones lives. You will do so in a manner in which they must become more mature children in Your family which will cause my heart to dance with joy.
I humbly ask this in the name of He who provided salvation to those who were willing to accept Him not just as their savior but as their king Jesus Christ. Amen
May you be blessed with discernment to when to help and when the best help is to step back and allow those to reap the rewards of reckless living. Joseph a son of Jehovah

A wise man waits and pray for three days as well as reads his Bible. Jehovah always answers those who have faith in Him, which means to trust Him.
We must also be patient because Jehovah answers in His time, In His way.
I depend upon You, Holy Spirit to help me set Godly boundaries in my relationships. I depend upon You to guide me in the proper use of these skills to nurture loving relationships while purging myself of toxic folks who only bring unnecessary drama and chaos to my life.
Prayer: Please Jehovah El Deah ( God of knowledge. Romans 11:33 ) guide me to share my time, talents, and gifts wherever and whenever You direct me to so as to bring You glory and honour. And, to bring the little lost sheep to You. Please protect me from the abusive wolves who only want to make a sucker out of me. I humbly ask this in the name of He who gave His life for mine, Jesus Christ. Amen .
I love to share the events in my life where Jehovah, Jesus and they Holy Spirit have touched me. How can I not. They were life changing. Joseph a son of Jehovah

“So don’t worry about tomorrow Matthew 6:34 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation
Every one of us has it: the worry thief.
We worry about family, we worry about our health, we worry about our country, we worry about our finances. The list just goes on and on.
And what is the result of this?
It destroys our mental and physical health.
There is only one cure and His name is Jesus. When we trust Jesus and place all of our cares into His loving hands He calms the storms around us.
He has done it for me. I used to be the worry wort king, not any more.
Why not give Him a try?
Jesus always provides the solutions for all of our problems. Joseph a son of Jehovah

This has blessed me with peace and assurance every day of my life and will all the way until reaching Your Heavenly home. I praise You in the name of He who walked through powerful storms and darkest nights with His beloved disciples, Jesus Christ. Amen
