| DAY 12 |
| Read: |
2 Corinthians 9:6: |
| |
But this I say; He who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully. (NKJV) |
| Speak: |
I choose to sow bountifully knowing You have promised if I do, I will also reap bountifully. |
| Think: |
How much do you love God? How much are you willing to express that love through your giving? God will never force us to give, but is blessed when we give bountifully because of our love for Him. |
| Pray: |
Lord, it is my desire to give generously into your kingdom. Speak to my heart what you would have me to give into Your kingdom. I will give as you direct my heart because of My love for You. |
| Grow: |
This verse is simply saying, when we withhold from giving, it will lead to poverty, but when we give generously, it will lead to great prosperity. |
| |
|
| God wants us to know, when we’re generous in His kingdom, the Holy
Spirit energizes our tithes and offerings and brings a generous return. Just as one seed planted in good soil grows into a larger plant and produces many seeds, our giving brings multiplied prosperity to us. Money has the ability to reproduce, both naturally and supernaturally. We can invest money wisely today and get back more money tomorrow by natural means. Money has seed potential. But only when energized by the Holy Spirit does it have a supernatural potential and eternal value. Nowhere in this earth can we plant and have a miraculous return except in the kingdom of God. |
