THE SUBSTANCE OF FAITH (6)


GIVING

So many are waiting on this line without results in fact many have turned back. This is the secret, James 4v2 says;

“Ye ask and receive not because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts”

its that simple. When you ask God for anything outside His will, He doesn't do it because it is those that ask according to His will that receives their petition, 1John 5v14. What does this whole thing mean? It means that before you kneel down to ask God for anything make sure your motive is in line with His will, His word. In other words make sure it has everything to do with the promotion of His kingdom on earth. That's why we are here on earth in the first place. He said seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness...Matthew 6v33 and every other thing we now spend quality time pursuing will be added to you. You wouldn't need to pray for those ones, hallelujah!

Giving is a vital substance of faith; it possesses both the weighty and visible features of any other substance. In 2Chronicles 1v6-12 Solomon was said to have offered a thousand burnt sacrifices to God and God visited him that same night to ask him why he had to do that. Whenever you give God anything from the bottom of your heart He responds by asking, and why did you do that? Solomon's journey to greatness didn't materialize until he made a request that aligned with God's kingdom, 2Chronicles 1v10. And God was over proud of him to have made such a request that He granted his request in multiple folds. Proverbs 11v30b says that those who make request that favor's God's kingdom are wise because God's response will almost throw such persons off balance. You can give your way through to your breakthrough. Get God to visit you tonight by your giving.

Now many think giving could only be in monetary a form only, no that’s a misinterpretation of this substance of faith and accounts for while many are still waiting for response to their giving. It could be in both cash (money) and kind (service, food, clothes, shoes, time etc) at little or mostly no cost.     

It is well with you!
