24- November     Knock and Bring Gifts

Matthew 10:42   “And if you give even a cup of cold water to one of the least of my followers, you will surely be rewarded.”

This is such a great scripture to reveal God’s view about our giving. It makes the point that we are never unable to give something. Here it’s a cup of cold water. For us it might be an extra shirt in the closet. Perhaps we could give an hour or two of house or yard work for an elderly neighbor. We always have something to give. God will even direct us to the ones to whom He wants us to give.

God ends this instruction by saying “you will surely be rewarded” when obeying the command to give. Notice that it’s a sure reward. So don’t stop seeking opportunities to give. Open up the abundant flow in your life by pouring out to others. That’s what primes the pump.

 

DECLARE THIS:
• I am a giver. I love to follow the command of Jesus to feed His sheep.
• I know that God is a rewarder and He will do what He says in His Word.
• I thank God that I am never without something to give!
