Giving!

 As children of GOD and Christ followers, we are called on to give.  And this means to give without thinking about what we are going to get.

We have nothing to give, except that GOD provided it for us in the first place.  Therefore it follows that we can only give once we have been given.

Often in the modern day churches, what is preached is the prosperity gospel.  This is a totally blasphemes teaching.

We are not going to get rich by giving.  We are not necessarily going to get by giving.

Giving needs to come from our hearts.  We need to be convicted by Holy Spirit to give without the expectation that we are going to get something back.

Even our time.  GOD has given us all the time that we have.  Without GOD having given us HIS time, we would not have any time.

GOD created everything, the earth, the universe, the day and the night.  Therefore we also need to give back time to GOD and to help others.

Let us reflect on how much we need to give back.  But let us not do this and expect to get anything back.  That is not the object of the exercise.

Prayer:  ABBA FATHER, I thank YOU for all that I have.  I thank YOU for the time you have given me on this earth.  FATHER today, show me where I can give back and help me not to expect to receive anything in return.  I humbly pray this in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ.  Amen.

Stay faithfully Jesus Blessed today!
