“Give and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom for with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.” Luke 6:38
Conventional wisdom says that your life will be better if you keep everything you have for yourself. However, God clearly says that your life will be better if you give.
We have been told that God wants us to live well. He has given instructions time and time again through His Word and through His servants---the men and women of God.
What we need to remember is that our decisions to obey or not to obey what we hear will directly impact our financial wellness. We cannot separate God’s financial principals from any of His other principles.
In God’s way of doing things, giving equals receiving. Seeds planted bring a harvest and I believe the way that we give will determine the level in which we live. (Refer to Ecclesiates 3:1-8)
Know that where you are planting your seed that it is in good ground. We have to give in faith, trust and believe God. Expect Him to prosper you when give. When you give get excited knowing that your harvest is on its way!
Remember what you give will affect how you live therefore, decide to give freely.
