ARE WE MISSING SOMETHING? – I think many of us are!!!
So many Christian Believers are hard working, consistently “giving” to the Work of God and yet, struggling financially!
The Word of God has a lot to say about giving, serving and investing financially in the Kingdom of God.
There are three areas we need to consider when seeking to “Reap” where we have sown.
Stewardship … So many of us believe we are the owners of those wages we have earned … when really, we are Stewards or Custodians … always looking to God for direction where our finances are to be invested. That is right … not just the tithe, everything belongs to Him.
Motivation … A number of years ago a troubled man spoke to me, complaining that God had failed to meet his and his wife’s needs, saying with resentment, “I gave to God and got nothing in return”: it was obvious that he, they, had given in order to receive … nothing more than a business investment.
Giving, an act of worship and thanksgiving … Overwhelmed with our Redemption, we are all investing in The Kingdom of God that others too, can be, born again.
There is no lack of Scriptural evidence and proof that God is faithful in providing for His children … that is not the issue … What are the issues? Our heart attitudes … our concepts … and certainly, our faith to receive, not just faith to ask! We are Blessed to be a Blessing.
