FUNDAMENTALS OF GIVING

 The world we inhabit, created by God rotates round giving.It is the system in place in this hemisphere , for this place to exist, there may be another system in the heavenlies, but here this universe can not be without giving. God first pronouncement on man is based on this system He had already put in place. Genesis 1:28, And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. Fruitfulness, no one can be fruitful if there is no giving involved.Whether the giving is money,time or another kind of giving, it brings about multiplication. Read this Ecclesiastes 11:1 Cast thy bread upon the waters: for thou shalt find it after many days. When that which is giving away comes back, is multiplied by the law of divine provision, it is replenished. A Giver does not lack. Earth sustain man through this giving; When you sow it reproduce . you give to the needy, the church and charities. It is God's will and you will be blessed for it.

Spiritual giving [SACRIFICE]. The first humans to give outside the Garden of Eden, were the two brother, cain and Abel. There we see how it works. They were not under compunction to give, but gave and receive the rewards in measure to thier giving.Best giving comes from the heart, without duress. It has nothing to do with size, but with quality based on joy as you give and feeling blessed to give. Giving to God comes in form of sacrifice for God is not man , but spirit. God does not accept anything from us unless it is in form of sacrifice. Every sacrifice, burnt, goes as a sweet smelling savour before God. After God, the father accepted Christ, as the ultimate lamb that takes the sin of the wolrd away, he stopped to accepting any other one involving blood. See Hebrews 10:8-10, Above when he said, Sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings and offering for sin thou wouldest not, neither hadst pleasure therein; which are offered by the law; Then said he, Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. He taketh away the first, that he may establish the second. By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. The new testament ran on giving:Acts 2:41-46,Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls. And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers. And fear came upon every soul: and many wonders and signs were done by the apostles. And all that believed were together, and had all things common; And sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all men, as every man had need. And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart. Acts 10:4, And when he looked on him, he was afraid, and said, What is it, Lord? And he said unto him, Thy prayers and thine alms are come up for a memorial before God. Cornelius did not know how to serve this true God, yet, but his sacrifice came to God and God responded by sending men to him who will teach him and make him know this true God his heart has desired.[Those who seek him will always find him]. Let us learn to give for a thing to be replenished the old must be used, for you to be fruitful you must first give out the fruit in your hands. An joyful giving comes to God as a sweet aroma. Read Philippians 4:18, But I have all, and abound: I am full, having received of Epaphroditus the things which were sent from you, an odour of a sweet smell, a sacrifice acceptable, wellpleasing to God.

MARANATHA!
