The last topic in this series on the Bible and financial teaching is the importance of paying yourself first. A verse on this principle is Ecclesiastes 11:6.
"Sow your seed in the morning, and at evening let not your hands be idle, for you do not know which will succeed, whether this or that, or whether both will do equally well."
The key part of this verse is sow your seed in the morning. If you want a crop you must plant seeds and these seeds have a defined growing season. If you never plant the seeds you never get a crop. Since it takes a fixed amount of time for a seed to grow to a mature plant the earlier you plant the seed the sooner you get to a mature plant.
When you have been given money, invest a portion of it and give it time to grow. The more seeds you plant the bigger the harvest.
Investments take time to grow so start investing now.
