Hear the Word of the LORD for us TODAY!
Remember this—a farmer who plants only a few seeds will get a small crop. But the one who plants generously will get a generous crop.
You must each decide in your heart how much to give. And don’t give reluctantly or in response to pressure.
For God loves a person who gives cheerfully.
And God will generously provide all you need. Then you will always have everything you need and plenty left over to share with others. As the Scriptures say,
They share freely and give generously to the poor. Their good deeds will be remembered forever. Psalm 112:9
For God is the one who provides seed for the farmer and then bread to eat. In the same way, He will provide and increase your resources and then produce a great harvest of generosity in you.
Yes, you will be enriched in every way so that you can always be generous. And when we take your gifts to those who need them, they will THANK God.
.
Dear ones, remember we are most like Christ when we GIVE! We freely give our time, our talent and our treasure to people we may not even know. Why is it important to GIVE to the local church? Because we are Ambassadors for God-Jehovah to show the world how His LOVE is disbursed to who-so-ever-will believe.
Holy Spirit of Truth, we PRAY in agreement with Your Word in 2Corinthians 9:12-15
So two good things will result from this ministry of giving—the needs of the believers in Jerusalem will be met, and they will joyfully express their THANKS to God.
As a result of your ministry, they will give Glory to God. For your generosity to them and to all believers will prove that you are obedient to the Good News of Christ.
And they will pray for you with deep affection because of the overflowing Grace God has given to you. Thank God for this Gift too wonderful for words!
Amen and Amen!
