First

Numbers 15
Verse 21 Throughout the generations to come, you are to present a sacred offering to the Lord each year from the first of your ground flour. 

Why did God require the first fruit of Israel's increase, because God knows that what you value most you do first. If your house was on fire what would you get first, you would get first what you valued most. When the bills are due and your paycheck is not enough to pay all the bills what do you pay first, you pay first what you value the most. Jesus said it this way, "where your treasure is there your heart will be also".

The first fruits of your life, reveal the values of your life. How do you spend the first moments of your day, what about the first day of the week or the first 10% of your income? The way you answer these questions reveal what you value in your life. So where does God fit in the value system of your life. How you spend your mornings, your off days and your money define those values. God said put me first, not because he is egotistical, but because he loves us. He knows that when He becomes the most valuable thing in our lives, it increases the value of our lives.

Everything evolves to a greater value and worth when God is first. Out of a right relationship with God, that relationship increases and adds value to every area of our lives. The only way to increase your life's value is to place your greatest value upon the Lord. So as God said in Malachi, "try me or prove me in this", I believe your life will radically and supernaturally change. The value and worth of your life will increase if you will commit you life to Christ and give him the first fruits of your life.
