Giving and Receiving
And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of Jesus ~ Col. 3:17
How do you give with Joy, when you’ve been giving to the same church for years? There’s only one way… You must give as unto the Lord. That means you don’t give to that church, you give through that church to the Lord. If you keep Jesus clearly in view as you give, you will always experience joy.
Expect to receive, most of us have been taught that. However, some have a hard time coming to terms with it. But it’s clearly the teaching of the bible. Listen, God is able to make it up to you by giving you everything you need and more. Therefore, that will not only be enough for your own needs, but plenty left over to give joyfully to others. By doing this, you live a lifestyle of sowing and reaping.
The bible says that God supplies seed to the sower in 2 Corinthians. Are you a sower? When you answer yes to this question, you can expect to live and walk in the blessing of God’s provision.
