Generosity & Money Devotionals

Daily devotionals on money, giving, and tithing. What Scripture says about generosity, with no guilt and no pitch.

I'm just a UPS guy. God hands me packages and says, these aren't yours, deliver them where I tell you. That's the whole theology of money in one picture. It's His. I'm the middleman.

So when Lisa and I bring the first ten percent, we're not giving. We're returning. Tithing is the starting line of generosity, not the finish line. God is a God of the first, and He wants the first of what we have, not the leftovers. Get that order right and the fights about money start to quiet down.

These devotionals on money, giving, and tithing are drawn from the two thousand verses where the Bible talks about possessions.  The goal is contentment.

Luke 12:15 warns us that greed often begins as quiet discontentment, convincing us that what we have—and even God Himself—is not enough, when true life is found in trusting His provision rather than chasing more. This calls us to practice daily contentment, letting every restless desire become an invitation to depend on God, who alone truly satisfies.

Adversity Test

1 Timothy 6:6

1 Timothy 6:6 and Philippians 4:11 remind us that both adversity and prosperity serve as tests of our character, urging us to maintain our focus on God and find contentment in Him regardless of our circumstances, thereby highlighting the importance of relying on faith to navigate the challenges and blessings life presents, ensuring our ultimate fulfillment and joy are found in Christ.

Questions

How long is each devotional?
+

About five minutes. One passage, a short reflection from Ed, and one thing to do or say that day.

Is this going to ask me for money?
+

No. These are about what Scripture says on money, generosity, and contentment. There's no giving link at the end of a devotional and never will be.

Can I read these with my spouse?
+

That's often the best way. Money is the thing couples argue about most, and reading the same passage on the same morning gives you common ground before the conversation.
