This sermon emphasizes the importance of living a "God-first" life by prioritizing one's relationship with Christ above all else, particularly within the realm of personal finances. Drawing from biblical examples such as Cain and Abel, the sermon challenges the congregation to move away from "leftover Christianity"—giving to God only what remains at the end of the month—and instead adopt a practice of sacrificial giving that reflects true trust in God as their provider. It asserts that financial generosity is not merely a matter of church budget but a spiritual barometer of the heart, intended to free believers from the "running" after worldly security so they can instead pursue God’s kingdom. Ultimately, the message calls for a reordering of priorities where faith is demonstrated through consistent, costly, and first-fruit devotion, trusting that God will miraculously provide for those who honor Him first.
