So here we are. You've made it to Part 3. Congratulations.
Hopefully, you've tested God in Part one with tithing 10 % towards Torah education (aka charity) as is permissible and recommended per Malachi 3:10. You have or will soon set up automatic investment and or saving with the next 10 %. Part 3 of this wealth and wellness may astound some, but will make perfect sense to those tired souls who work hard and have little to show for it.
Deuteronomy 5:12 says to keep the Sabbath day holy. Work six days and rest on the seventh day as the LORD rested from creating.
It may seem like a small thing. But it's pretty big.
We were not designed to grind (work) seven days a week for a paycheck or income. In fact, observing the Sabbath day allows you more income.
It's a supernatural fact like the tithe. Humans are designed for the Sabbath day. It's a built in reset button. You will actually accomplish more the following week when you do it.
Personally, I don't have it down perfectly myself yet. But I do light my candles, unplug from the phone, TV, internet etc and totally relax.
I still don't understand how to make a wonderful meal without using the stove on Saturday or before sundown Friday. 🤔 But I'm getting better. Research "How to Observe the Sabbath day" online for details.
It's quiet time for your soul and your family. Reflect. Be grateful.
You can attend shul, rest, spend quality time with family, go for a quiet stroll in your neighborhood or read. Everyone benefits. The planet does too.
"Keep shomer Shabbos to set Shabbos apart as kodesh as Hashem Eloheicha commanded thee."
Deuteronomy 5:12 Now, some of you are wondering what this has to do with being successful, healthy, well, and prosperous. Everything!
Many of you are just ecstatic about step #2! However, I assure you that step #1 the tithe is the REAL financial multiplication secret. Step #3 is when you learn to trust God to "handle your business". 😇
Do your work to the best of your ability. Do good business. Be ethical. (See part 2).
Study a little Torah each day. Watch God handle the things you can not. Pray (for yourself, your family, friends, community and planet) daily.
Read and study. from the Old Testament (at least Psalms and Proverbs). Study means to contemplate what you read.
Ask questions. There will be plenty.
Your soul communes with God. Your standards improve. Your success and favor will increase. You become promotable. You get God as your COO (Chief Operating Officer). That means God is the real Boss not you.
Stick to it. God wants to know you're serious. God wants to bless you, love you, guide you, protect you.😍
You're never too old, too rich, or too wise for God's help. It's absolutely priceless.
Shabbat Shalom,
LeTicia
