*THE BLESSEDNESS OF GIVING .*
Tuesday, February 27th .
Pastor Chris
_*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 guarantee continuous increase in finances is the principle of giving. Not too many people are as excited to give, as they are to receive; meanwhile, the promised blessing isn’t to the receiver but to the giver. Jesus said, _*“…It is more blessed to give than to receive”*_ (Acts 20:35).
2 Corinthians 9:8 gives us a clear insight about the blessedness of the giver. It says, _*“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 abundance for every good work and charitable donation]”*_ (AMP). The previous verse says, _*“…God loves (He takes pleasure in, prizes above other things, and is unwilling to abandon or to do without) a cheerful (joyous, prompt to do it) giver [whose heart is in his giving].”*_
Now this isn’t just about money; Jesus didn’t say “give money,” He said “Give!” Whatever good thing you desire in your life, sow the seed of it into the lives of others and it’ll be multiplied in your own life. Remember His words: _*“Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them…”*_ (Matthew 7:12).
Another thing your giving does is that it helps to increase the fruits of your righteousness: _*“Now he that ministereth seed to the sower both minister bread for your food, and multiply your seed sown, and increase the fruits of your righteousness”*_ (2 Corinthians 9:10). If only you knew all that your giving to the Lord could do for you!It connects you and everything that concerns you with God’s Spirit and gives you results that aren’t only for today, but for tomorrow and for all time.
Each time you have the opportunity to give, be excited. Our lives as Christians should depict the character of our heavenly Father, who gave His precious Son, Jesus, for our salvation (John 3:16).
*CONFESSION*
*Thank you precious Father, for blessing me in all things, and making me a blessing to my world. I declare that I’m mightily blessed today as I seek opportunities to give, for you’ve said in your Word, it’s more blessed to give, than to receive. Hallelujah.*
*FURTHER STUDY:* *||* *2 Corinthians 8:9* For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich. *||*
*||* *2 Corinthians 9:7* Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, [so let him give]; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver. *||*

Affirmation,
https://wp.me/p9v28c-KS
I affirm that the Word is in my mouth and in my heart today, working in me and producing results in every area of my life. The Word of God has made me wise unto salvation, and the forces of success, prosperity, and divine health are let loose in my life. I am completely yielded to the Lordship and tutelage of God’s Word and the Spirit. The Lord is guiding my heart and leading me in the path of His perfect will for my life. I walk in dominion today because the Spirit of the Lord has mantled my heart and imparted divine courage to my spirit. Nothing in this world can stop or intimidate me from fulfilling my ministry of reconciliation committed to me by God. I am bold and courageous; I manifest the glory of the Kingdom everywhere I go. I am energized and aglow with the anointing today; and the grace and peace of God are multiplied to me through the knowledge of God, as I walk in and with the Spirit to impact my world with the Gospel. Glory to God. Hallelujah!
