READ: : Proverbs 11:24-26
“…remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, It is more blessed to give than to receive.” – Acts 20:35
Christians must learn to be generous by giving offerings to the Lord. Once again, money must not be more important to us than it really is. The Bible says that there are two types of people in the world.
One group gives a lot, and the other group tends to keep rather than to give.
God’s book, the Bible, tells us that the givers become richer and the keepers become poorer. This is a divine principle. The God who created the universe has set in place the law of giving and receiving. Our little minds cannot accept that this is real. The more you give, the richer you become. It is just a matter of time! Give, and it shall be given unto you… Luke 6:38
After giving your tithe (which is not really giving, because it belongs to the Lord), you must now give an offering to the Lord. It is the giving of an offering to the Lord that will invoke the laws of giving and receiving on your behalf. Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. Galatians 6:7
