Being Generous

By THE SPIRIT Paul wrote in Philippians chapter 4:

19 And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

20 Now to our God and Father be glory forever and ever. Amen.

If you want to fully align with FATHER and HIS Divine Intent you must mature in the area of being generous.  Unconditional Love means that you give without expecting anything in return and that is very difficult for many to attain to that level.  The reason is that you tend to judge the recipient and find ways to compromise being generous.  Greed enters in.

Giving exceeds worldly wisdom’s ability to process its benefits.  Why?  Because man is always attempting to assess cause and effect but man has no way to measure FATHER’S Love and willingness to be generous HIMSELF.  For FATHER so loved the world HE first gave then received.  Love is “first” cause.

A seed can turn into a forest.  The law of sowing and reaping says you first must sow to reap and if you sow sparingly you will reap sparingly.  Paul speaks to this Truth by THE SPIRIT in 2 Corinthians chapter 9:

6 But this I say: He who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully.

7 So let each one give as he purposes in his heart, not grudgingly or of necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver.

8 And God is able to make all grace abound toward you, that you, always having all sufficiency in all things, may have an abundance for every good work.

9 As it is written:

​​​“He has dispersed abroad,

​​He has given to the poor;

​​His righteousness endures forever.”

​10 Now may He who supplies seed to the sower, and bread for food, supply and multiply the seed you have sown and increase the fruits of your righteousness,

11 while you are enriched in everything for all liberality, which causes thanksgiving through us to God.

There is must to do with respect to Kingdom business.  Many will be onlookers while others will immerse themselves in Kingdom business and affect people’s lives.  There will be those who abuse the Gospel for personal gain but that reality exists in virtually every endeavor.  However, FATHER knows men’s hearts and their intent toward giving.  If you give with a pure heart unto men, FATHER will be the rewarder of your giving.  If you expect the benefit to come from the recipient then you are operating in a lower form of conditional love.  Even the world understands that dynamic.

Giving increases the fruits of your righteousness and fruit is intended to be shared and consumed.  Our mission is to change people’s lives, not simply tickle their ears with mental and logical acrobatics.  How many of us look for ways to give versus looking for ways to receive from others.  If we ever want to walk as fully mature Sons and Daughters, we must overcome greed and root it out of our hearts that we might be known for our generosity.

The Divine Intent of FATHER was given to us in Malachi chapter 3:

10  "Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, so that there may be food in My house, and test Me now in this," says the LORD of hosts, "if I will not open for you the windows of heaven and pour out for you a blessing until it overflows.”

It cannot be made any clearer than this.
