COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS !

 When the devil attempts weakening you with his deceptive thoughts, consciously remind him of God's goodness to you. That's one way by which we win the battle of the mind! ( Psalms 103:1, 2 Corinthians 10:5 & James 4:7 )

REVELATION PART 2

  "And he informed me, and talked with me, and said, O Daniel, I am now come forth to give thee skill and understanding." Daniel 9:22 KJV Our verse here lets us know that Daniel received some divine secrets from God through His angel. But how else can we obtain revelations from God? This second PART of the subject enlightens us on the ways by which we access the LIGHTS of God. 1. READING OR STUDYING. "When you come, bring the bookcase and the books that I left in Troas with Qarpus, especially the parchment scrolls." 2 Timothy 4:13 By this verse, we understand the secret behind Pauls depth in God; Paul read stories of Bible figures; He studied the Law; He acquainted himself with the promises of God, and heard the Words of our Lord Jesus as narrated by his disciples. He even made notes, kept the books and meditated upon them constantly for Lights. Paul only taught after he had studied long enough to receive some revelations. No wonder, God wrought special miracles by ...

THE GRACE OF GIVING

 

“…see that you also excel in this GRACE OF GIVING.”

2 Corinthians 8:7.


It’s an indisputable fact that our walk with God is strictly a walk of sacrifice or giving. We are either giving of our strength, possessions or money. But the seeds we sow, in the form of tithes, firstfruits, or thanksgiving often yield below the peak for some christians. Such are they that are advised by Apostle Paul to excel in The Grace of Giving.

One may ask, “what extra Grace do we need for giving?” ; “aren’t we supposed to simply give and wait for results?” Emphatically, NO !
Giving is disciplined by principles. There’s the need for spiritual privilege – a reconditioning of The human Spirit so one can passionately, continuously and comprehensively offer of his or her own unto The Lord. And it’s only the Grace of Giving that positions us in this state.

By this Grace, we first submit ourselves (our hearts ) to God; because our hearts are now governed by God, He alone – by His Spirit, determines how, when and what we give. Having learnt lessons from how Saul and Uzziah missed God in offering their sacrifices, this Macedonia church, by this Grace of Giving, rather sacrificed themselves to God before they offered many more gifts to Him.

This Grace of Giving recognises neither afflictions nor poverty. Again, the Macedonia church was so heavily engraced for giving that their penury and troubles couldn’t bar them off. They would rather give joyously for their hearts had been given to God with whom they’re in love. Their love for God made them proritise GIVING over all other personal needs. And when they did, they gave their best, avoiding the mistakes of Eli’s sons regarding sacrifice !

Beloved, The Grace of Giving isn’t only a supplier of seeds; it’s also a renderer of harvests to the sower so he or she may continue giving to the kingdom. It’s my prayer that The Lord helps each and everyone of us grow in this Grace also. Hallelujah !
