Please read 2 Corinthians 9.
Meditate on verse 8.
And God is able to make all grace abound to you,
so that always having all sufficiency in everything,
you may have an abundance for every good deed.
The church
at Corinth promised to give an offering, and believers from Macedonia were
coming to receive the offering. Paul wrote to the Corinthians to ensure they
were going to keep their word. They promised a bountiful gift; Paul did not
want them to be affected by covetousness and decide to give sparingly (2
Corinthians 9:5-6).
Examine your
life. Is there a promise you need to keep? How do you give to your church and
to others? Are you a bountiful believer or are you motivated by covetousness?
This applies to time as well as money.
Pray 2
Corinthians 9:8 and 10-11 over yourself and those for whom you stand guard as a
faithful, prayerful watchman (Isaiah 62:6-7).
“God,
make all grace abound to _____ and me,
so we will always have all sufficiency in
everything.
May we have an abundance for every good deed.
You, who supply seed to the sower
and bread
for food will supply
and
multiply our seed for sowing
and
increase the harvest of our righteousness.
Please
enrich us in everything for all liberality,
which
through us is producing thanksgiving to You, God.
For the sake of Your name, Jesus~”
