He encourages us to break the spirit of mammon off our lives and be generous to declare our trust in the Lord. His main message is for us to ask God what He would have us do and then to do it, knowing that our Heavenly Father is the source of all our resources.

Pastor David Rials reminds us that we live in a more spiritual world than we may think, and that the unseen has a greater impact on our lives than we realize. He uses scriptures from Daniel and Ephesians to illustrate this point, as well as the book This Present Darkness by Frank E. Peretti. He also emphasizes the importance of being faithful with our earthly wealth, as it is a tool to accomplish God's work and the true riches are souls, which are eternal. He warns against serving both God and the spirit of mammon, which promises everything that only God can give us. Pastor David encourages us to break the spirit of mammon off our lives by serving God with our money. He also explains the significance of the tithe and how being faithful with it can lead to more blessings.

He also shares various opportunities for generosity within the church and invites members to join in missions trips. His main message is for us to ask God what He would have us do and then to do it, knowing that our Heavenly Father is the source of all our resources.
