Scripture: Genesis 28:17-22

In verses 17-22 the fear of God comes all over Jacob because he is at the place he finds God. He calls the name of that place Bethel, or God’s House, and he restates the five covenantal promises of the tithe in the order of their importance to him personally. We learn the five elements of the tithe are, (1) “…If God will be with me, (2) and keep me in this way that I am going, (3) and give me bread to eat (4) and clothing to put on, so that (5) I come back to my father’s house in peace…” First, God will be with us. Second, He will keep us in the way we are going. Third, He will give us bread to eat. Fourth, He will give us clothing to wear and shelter. Fifth, He will bring us back to our origin in peace having fulfilled our destiny. These are the five primary elements of the tithe and so not only are we to experience acceptance but, we learn to communicate with God where we talk to Him and He talks to us. God, where do You want me to sow my tithe this month? Asking and waiting for His response are major steps in developing the kind of relationship He wants with us. Let’s walk in the Sonship gifts, in Jesus’ name! The fruit of our acceptance by God is our accepting His voice, His will and His ways.
