It comes from a root word which means birthright. So, all firstborn belong to God. All first of the harvest belong to God. All first of New Beginnings belong to God… Everything that is a first belongs to God. Think about this in Joshua 7: The children of Israel have just entered in and they’ve conquered, they’ve gone across the Jordan. They’ve conquered and now they’re getting to their first city. It’s called Ai. And suddenly where they were having victory after victory… they get defeated. Why do they get defeated? The Bible says that Joshua falls down and he begins to cry out and he’s praying and God says, Joshua, stop praying, stop crying. He said, Listen, the problem is with Achan and he’s touched the cursed thing. What’s a curse mean? It means devoted things. And devoted is the same word as a first fruit. So anytime you touch something that is first, something that belongs to God, it brings admonition, a reprimand, some form of correction or order into our life.
As we have entered January, we recognize that there are two calendars in the earth; God’s Hebraic calendar and the Gregorian calendar we use. January is the first, the beginning of a new year for us in the Western world. Let us give to God what belongs to Him, the first hours of our day, the first month of the year, the first of our increase, the first in every area of our life!
In Deuteronomy 16:16 God says, “Do not stand before me empty handed.”
In Leviticus 3 God says, “all first belong to Him,” …all the way through the New Testament there was a practice of first fruits. Anytime there was a first of something, it belongs to God. In fact, when you get into the book of Acts, and you start to really study the early chapters, you understand that it had to do with the First Fruits.
As Christians, when the Word of God clearly states something- we are obedient! And the Bible references first fruits or first things or devoted things no less than 32 times…
“Honor the Lord with your substance, with the first fruits of all your increase” (Proverbs 3:9)…
The first represents the total. All firsts belong to God! and there is a reason why… “Honor the LORD with your possessions, and with the first fruits of all your increase; so your barns will be filled with plenty, and your vats will overflow…” (Proverbs 3:9–10 NKJV).
Right now, I declare that your obedience to honoring God will cause your barns to be filled with plenty and your vats to overflow in the name of Jesus!
“When you come into the land which I gave you, and reap its harvest, then you shall bring a sheaf of the first fruits of your harvest to the priest” (Leviticus 23:9-10)…
This divine establishment of God’s order is actually the root, the foundation that governs the rest. “For if the first fruit is holy, the lump is also holy; and if the root is holy, so are the branches” (Romans 11:16 NKJV).
God claims the FIRST of ALL THINGS! It rightfully belongs to Him. When we apply the Principle of First Fruits, we see that all firsts should be given to the Lord: the first of the day, week (Sabbath), month, and the first of our harvest. It is a principle…
Jesus declared to us, “But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness… all these things will be added to you,” (Matthew 6:33). God adds the “things” to you when the foundation is in place to be built upon. When we honor God with our FIRST FRUITS, He will unlock the ‘things” for the remainder of the year- your 2020 will be A YEAR OF FREEDOM & FAVOR!!
You can put God first in every area of your life by:
PRAYING: Give God your first thoughts in the morning.
PLANNING: Where do you want to be 365 days from today?
MAKING AN OFFERING: When you give your first fruits offering, you are planting a seed for the remainder of the year. There is a greater portion that awaits you in honor of your first fruits offering!

I challenge you to put First Things First and honor God! I challenge you to start activating the Word by offering God your First Fruits as a seed for your harvest in 2020. I challenge you to set aside time for him every day. Maybe you feel led to fast for a portion of this first month… And although it is going to unlock abundant blessing all around your life, it is first and foremost about honoring God because He is worthy!

As you sacrifice your offering to Him, you set a precedent of what will come. You release a great promise of provision as a result of your obedience. Everyone is to give their very best offering!

According to Ezekiel 44, I will raise your offering up as a sacrifice, believing God to pour out His promises through your obedience! “The best of all the first fruit and of all your special gifts will be given to the priests. You are to give them the first portion so that a blessing may rest on your household” (Ezekiel 44:30).

Is that you? Receive it now in Jesus name!
“Maybe you’ve been called to raise two children and send them off to college. I don’t look at what I’ve done on earth as being any greater than what anyone else has done. It certainly doesn’t matter who you are. It does matter where you are. But what really matters is why.”
