READ
DEUTERONOMY 8:7-11 NLT
7 For the Lord your God is bringing you into a good land of flowing streams and pools of water, with fountains and springs that gush out in the valleys and hills. 8 It is a land of wheat and barley; of grapevines, fig trees, and pomegranates; of olive oil and honey. 9 It is a land where food is plentiful and nothing is lacking. It is a land where iron is as common as stone, and copper is abundant in the hills. 10 When you have eaten your fill, be sure to praise the Lord your God for the good land he has given you. 11 But that is the time to be careful! Beware that in your plenty you do not forget the Lord your God and disobey his commands, regulations, and decrees that I am giving you today.

REFLECT
In Exodus 3, God told Moses that He would lead His people out of Egypt into their own fertile and spacious land. God delivered his people to a land flowing with milk and honey because He wanted to bless his people abundantly. Like the Israelites, God blesses us with abundance; he has given us milk and honey.
APPLY
Q: How has God graced you with milk and honey? What does the scripture tell you to do ‘when you have eaten your fill?’
Q: Do you remember to praise and thank God for his blessings? Do you consider your finances to be a part as blessings from God?
Q: Do you use your finances in a way that glorifies God’s blessings in your life?

PRAY
"Our Father in heaven, may your name be kept holy."
Hallowed by your name, oh God! My voice sings praise to your name, my lips speak of your holiness, and my heart rejoices when it hears your name, my Lord! Worthy of glory and praise; my soul leaps at the chance to praise you. I proclaim my desire to grow closer to you by honoring you through my finances.
