As long as the world exists, there will be a time for planting and a time for harvest. There will always be cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night (Genesis 8:22 GNB).
One of the most profound principles in the Word of God that guarantees continues increase in finance is the principle of giving. Your giving is a channel to facilitate your receiving, for there can be no receiving without you first giving. 2 Corinthians 9:8 gives us divine insight into what your act of giving propels: ‘’And God is able to make all grace (every favor and earthly blessing) come to you in abundance, so that you may always and under all circumstances and whatever the need be self-sufficient [possessing enough to require no aid or support and furnished in the abundance for every good work and charitable donation]’’ (AMP).
Another thing your giving does is that it establishes your righteousness: ‘’Now he that ministereth seed to the sower both minister bread for your food, and multiple your seed sown, and increase the fruits of your righteousness…’’ (2 Corinthians 9:10).
Our lives as Christians should depict the character of our heavenly Father, who gave his precious Son, Jesus for our salvation: ‘’For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life’’ (John 3:16). Make up your mind today to be a big giver like your Father, and activate the grace for receiving in your life.
Confession
I’m a big time giver, and I invest wisely and rightly as I give for the propagation of the gospel and the expansion of God’s Kingdom. When I give, I receive because God channels spiritual and material blessings to me from all over the world. Hallelujah!
