(1 Tim. 5:8 NLT)<\/i><\/li>\n<ul >\n<li>Family plays a very important part in God\u2019s order of society.<\/li>\n<li>This is God\u2019s divine order of society:<\/li>\n<ul >\n<li>Marriage<\/li>\n<li>Family<\/li>\n<li>Church<\/li>\n<li>Government<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<li>Before there was a church or government, God instituted marriage and the family.<\/li>\n<li>We get into serious problems when we mix up God\u2019s divine order.<\/li>\n<li>So, our first duty as a Christian with our money is to provide for the needs of our family.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<li><b>On fellow believers who are in need<\/b><i>If someone has enough money to live well and sees a brother or sister  in need but shows no compassion\u2014how can God\u2019s love be in that person?

Instead of giving money, take practical steps like, whenever you buy groceries for yourselves, buy extra of the same item and give these to the person in need.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<li><b>On savings<\/b><i>Take a lesson from the ants, you lazybones.
