Giving to Receive Written by Dawid Fourie
Pro 18:16 A man's gift makes room for him and brings him before great men.
Ecc 11:1 CAST YOUR bread upon the waters, for you will find it after many days.
The lessons learned are lessons earned. This works the same way with money. If your hand is open to give, it will open doors that you have never expected. I am not talking about bribery - that is a corrupt person. Stop it!
Giving is a natural act build into people. If we see people in need, our instinct is to give, because that is how we are created. Our society has taught us to hold back and not to give and turn a blind eye to the poor and the needy. Then again, people have become like animals and will rob and steal from each other without regards to God.
When you give, it is because you want to and because you can. All your giving must be seed in the ground or bread on the water, for there comes a day that it will find you and hunt you down and you wil be blessed and give all praises to God that remembered your giving.
By not giving you rob God in order for Him to lift you up as His peculiar people. To give is like an investment unto yourself for time to come. God will see that in time that which you gave will produce a harvest that can be enjoyed.
Some people have difficulty to receive. You will deny yourself from any blessings. Learn to receive and you will know the value of giving. Don’t let there be any guild in receiving, but with joy and honor give thanks to God and bless Him for it is He who have blessed you – God is good all the time and all the time God is good.
In receiving you acknowledge God. It is to receive Gods grace and forgiveness if you sin. He died for just that, and He earnestly remember that man is like a wind – it goes and never returns.
To give what you have is to receive what God wants to give unto you. It is laid up before the foundations of the earth. Have an open heart and an open mind (soul) for true wealth is born from within and exercised in giving. Show me your faith by showing me your works, and all around you will give glory to God.
2Co 9:7 Let each one [give] as he has made up his own mind and purposed in his heart, not reluctantly or sorrowfully or under compulsion, for God loves (He takes pleasure in, prizes above other things, and is unwilling to abandon or to do without) a cheerful (joyous, “prompt to do it") giver [whose heart is in his giving]
One thing is sometimes to wonderful, two things too precious to describe, that we are not on earth for our own sake but to help others and thus be a pleasure unto God.
God is looking out for those who give to others. He gives to them because they give to others. Be watchful to do what the bible teaches on money and your reward will be great for many years to come. Remember, you can not bribe God by giving. You also can not give to receive. It is not a matter of sowing seed to get a harvest. If you do that it is called law! We are not under the law, but we are free by grace as someone already paid on our behalf for us.
Deu 6:3 Hear therefore, O Israel, and be watchful to do them, that it may be well with you and that you may increase exceedingly, as the Lord, the God of your fathers, has promised you, in a land flowing with milk and honey. Written by Dawid Fourie
