We will be working with interest-bearing money markets at local banks, Real-estate, stocks and bonds. Must be able to not touch these savings for at least 6 months, unless extreme emergencies. Goals- $1000.00, $5000.00, $10000, $25000, $50,000.00 $100,000.00. Not cash flow.

Must mentor a couple while in this course. Can do it FaceTime or personally.

What Is Discretionary Income?

Discretionary income is the amount of an individual's income that is left for spending, investing, or saving after paying taxes and paying for personal necessities, such as food, shelter, and clothing. I’m not talking about cash flow

Disposable income is the net income of a person's take-home pay and is used to pay for all expenses (both essential and nonessentials).

proverb 10:22 “The blessing of the Lord brings wealth, and he adds no trouble to it.”

proverb 3:9-11 “Honor the Lord with your wealth, with the firstfruits of all your crops; then your barns will be filled to overflowing, and your vats will brim over with new wine.

Clearly, from the Bible’s standpoint, we need to understand money and how to handle it. Why? Because money is actually a test from God. How you handle money reveals volumes about your priorities, loyalties, and affections. In fact, it directly dictates many of the blessings you will (or won’t) experience in life."

God gave His tithe (Jesus) in faith before we ever believed. Notice that God gave Him to us before we believed. Romans 5:8 says: God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. We have to give our firstfruits offering—our tithes—in much the same way. Before we see the blessing of God, we give it in faith. God gave Jesus in faith “that He might be the firstborn among many brethren” (Romans 8:29).

The principle of the firstfruits is very, very powerful. I have heard it said that any first thing given is never lost, and any first thing not given is always lost. In other words, what we give to God, we don’t lose because God redeems it for us. But what we withhold from God, we will lose. Jesus

The first belongs to God. We find this principle all through the Bible. We can give God the first of our time. We can give Him the first of our finances. That’s what tithing really is—giving our first to God. It’s saying, “God, I’m going to give to You first and trust You to redeem the rest.” Put another way, when a firstborn lamb is born in a flock, it is not possible to know how many more lambs that ewe might produce. Nevertheless, God didn’t say, “Let your ewe produce nine lambs first, and then give Me the next one.” No, God says, “Give Me the first one.”

It always requires faith to give the first. That’s why so few Christians experience the blessings of tithing. It means giving to God before you see if you’re going to have enough. By tithing, it is as if we are saying to God, “I recognize You first. I am putting You first in my life, and I trust You to take care of the rest of the things in my life.” That’s why tithing is so important. It is the primary way we acknowledge that God is first.

The very first principle you must grasp, if you are to understand giving, is the principle of firstfruits. It can also be called the principle of the firstborn or the tithe.
