God first

In the book of 1 Chronicles, chapter 16, David brought the Ark inside a tent he pitched for it and offered burnt offerings to the Lord.  He then blessed God's people and distributed choice foods to each man and woman in the land.

He appointed a select group of Levites to be the Ark's ministers and play an assortment of instruments before the Ark, and a great psalm of thanksgiving to the Lord was spoken.  The psalm sang of the Lord's wondrous strength and love of His people, how all of the kings throughout the nations will not harm any of His prophets.  The people of the whole earth will sing praises to the Lord.

Afterward, he assigned a select group to be gatekeepers for the Ark.

Then, when this was all done, he sent everyone home and David returned to his own home.

As you can see, David put the Lord first before anything else.  Remember to follow in his footsteps and put God first, even above your own family.  That is why tithing is called first fruits.  It is given first--and best--before anything else.

Put God first in your life.
