“BLESSED TO BLESS”
“He who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly; and he who sows generously will also reap generously.”
(2 Corinthians 9: 6)
The blessings that GOD gives us are not for them to stay with us. His wish is that they also reach others. This principle applies to everything in our life, including finances. Did you know that GOD has plans for our money? We want to know, in general, what is the will of GOD for our lives, but many times we do not ask about our money.
The LORD, by his mercy, gives us income so that we can meet our needs and even our desires. But he also wants us to use our money to carry out his plans. And one of its objectives is that we share our resources with others.
If we propose in our hearts to participate in their plans, He commits to give us everything we need to live and give.
Let us see his exorbitant promise in verse 8: “And God is powerful that he may abound with all grace, that always and under all circumstances have all that is necessary, and abound in you all good work.”
It is a verse that we can appropriate. Sharing our blessings with others will never lead us to poverty. The LORD promises to increase the harvest of our justice, and enrich us in everything in response to our generosity.
We can never surpass GOD in generosity. An accumulated blessing is never enjoyed as much as a shared blessing. Using what we have to help someone in need, glorifies GOD by showing the grace of Him acting in our lives. Let us not allow the generous provision of the LORD to remain alone for us. Let’s pass it on to others, and discover the joy of having an endless cycle of blessings.
Dear LORD, thank you for all the blessings you place in our lives. Allow us in any circumstance, to share with those around us, Your abundant and sufficient provision. In the name of JESUS. Amen and Amen.
