Life Is Good!

This Move of GOD is all about yielding to HIM and becoming generous as HE is.  HE will hold nothing back so neither should we as mature Sons and Daughters. We will attest “Life is good!”

If I leave out the topic of giving and its blessings, I am robbing you of a critical aspect of becoming a mature Son or Daughter.  Paul was not reluctant to write concerning what Jesus told him directly in the area of giving.  Read the following closely!

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in 2 Corinthians chapter 9:

6 Here’s my point. A stingy sower will reap a meager harvest, but the one who sows from a generous spirit will reap an abundant harvest. 7 Let giving flow from your heart, not from a sense of religious duty. Let it spring up freely from the joy of giving—all because God loves hilarious generosity! 8 Yes, God is more than ready to overwhelm you with every form of grace, so that you will have more than enough of everything—every moment and in every way. He will make you overflow with abundance in every good thing you do. 9 Just as the Scriptures say about the one who trusts in Him:

Because he has sown extravagantly and given to the poor,

    his kindness and generous deeds will never be forgotten.

10 This generous God who supplies abundant seed for the farmer, which becomes bread for our meals, is even more extravagant toward you. First HE supplies every need, plus more. Then HE multiplies the seed as you sow it, so that the harvest of your generosity will grow. 11 You will be abundantly enriched in every way as you give generously on every occasion, for when we take your gifts to those in need, it causes many to give thanks to God.

12 The priestly ministry you are providing through your offering not only supplies what is lacking for God’s people, it inspires an outpouring of praises and thanksgiving to God Himself. 13 For as your extremely generous offering meets the approval of those in Jerusalem, it will cause them to give glory to God—all because of your loyal support and allegiance to the Gospel of Christ, as well as your generous-hearted partnership with them toward those in need. 14 Because of this extraordinary grace, which God has lavished on you, they will affectionately remember you in their prayers. 15 Praise God for His astonishing gift, which is far too great for words!

We must not leave any area of our lives untouchable by the grace and revelation of GOD.  Yes, we have all been abused by those who sought ways to extract finances from us in the past.  I felt that certain ministries were trying to nearly pull my wallet out of my pants in order to compel me to give to them.  You don’t have to preach an hour about giving as you are taking an offering.  Neither do you have to pass the plate multiple times!

However, I don’t want to rob you of a blessing.  FATHER does provide seed for the sower.  My wife and I are testimonies of that Truth.  My goal is to increase our giving and show how FATHER works in our lives.  Your giving is definitely a testimony to the school kids, teachers, and administrations we are affecting.  Their hearts are changing month by month. The superintendent as made this very comment to me!

It is written by The Holy Spirit in Psalm 112:

5 Life is good for the one who is generous and charitable,

    conducting affairs with honesty and Truth.

6 Their circumstances will never shake them

    and others will never forget their example.

7 They will not live in fear or dread of what may come,

    for their hearts are firm, ever secure in their faith.

8 Steady and strong, they will not be afraid,

    but will calmly face their every foe

    until they all go down in defeat.

9 Never stingy and always generous to those in need,

    they lived lives of influence and honor that will never be forgotten,

    for they were full of good deeds.
