PLEASE REMEMBER THE MAN IN NEED

He who has pity on the poor lends to the Lord, and He will pay back what he has given.
Proverbs 19: 17
Main Text:

Some unwisely hold on to that which they’re supposed to give to the needy, not realizing that givers don’t lack. Come to think of it, what should inspire our attitude to give or remember those who are in need is that our financial or material seeds to God could one day serve as ransom for our life against the evil One. Therefore, crave and desire to walk in the grace of giving to the needy. Giving is a grace. When that grace is at work in your life, every opportunity to give becomes interesting for you. Today is an opportunity for you to help somebody in need. No one can ever out-give God. That’s why whenever He asks you to give or when there’s a call to give, you should respond fast. This must be consciously done. Jesus agreed to pay the price for our salvation and the remission of the sins of the whole world. He didn’t just take that upon Himself but did all that because He loved us. The giving grace is your spiritual capacity to give to God and humanity with wisdom and at a commensurate level in line with divine blessings upon your life. God is a giving God and that was the reason he gave His best in the person of our Lord Jesus Christ. The release of Jesus as the sacrificial Lamb paved way for the salvation and deliverance of all nations. This divine benevolence is the reason you are a CHILD of God and have access to the things of God; what a mystery! May you not misuse these blessings of God upon your life in Jesus mighty name. Do not give reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves and cherishes a cheerful giver. As you do so, greatness and all round prosperity shall attend to you. There’s no better secret to prosperity than giving. Luke 6:38. Prayer: Let the enabling power of the Holy Spirit in me continually guide.
