The Restorer’s Water: Financial/Will

God said, “My people have committed two sins: They have forsaken me, the spring of living water, and have dug their own cisterns, broken cisterns that cannot hold water” (Jeremiah 2:13). A financial cistern represents the damming of the will. This hardening of the will stops the flow of the Holy Spirit in our financial world.

An example of choosing to compartmentalize God from our finances occurs when we decide to arbitrarily give him ten percent of our gross income. This places God and our finances in a neat and tidy box. However, willfully surrendering our finances is not that simple. God has intended something totally different than neat and tidy boxes that dam the flow of the Holy Spirit in our financial resources. Instead, He calls clay hearts to give one hundred percent of our time, talent, and treasure to release the Holy Spirit in our lives. How could you release the flow of the Holy Spirit in your financial world?
