How we long for a net breaking catch! Many people wish,
desire and pray for a one-time abundant harvest that will turn around their
lives for the better. Some of them do all manner of things just to get this
overflowing abundance. But the answer lies in sacrificial giving. This post
tells you how to prepare to make great the harvest.
So He said, “Truly I say to you that
this poor widow has put in more than all; for all these out of their abundance
have put in offerings for God, but she out of her poverty put in all the
livelihood that she had.” – Luke 21:3-4 (NKJV)
So Jesus answered and said, “Assuredly,
I say to you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or
father or mother or wife or children or lands, for My sake and the gospel’s,
who shall not receive a hundredfold now in this time—houses and brothers and
sisters and mothers and children and lands, with persecutions—and in the age to
come, eternal life – Mark 10:29-30 (NKJV)
Many people don’t like sacrificial
giving because it is really a sacrifice. It pinches the soul and body, though
very healthy for the spirit. It is like the widow who gave out of her poverty;
Jesus said she gave more than the others who gave out of their abundance. It is the quantity of what you are giving
compared to what is left and the ease with which you are giving it. This is why
it moves God to give you back in return overflowing abundance.
God’s palm is extremely bigger than
yours. So when you give Him sacrificially according to the size of your palm,
He gives you back according to the size of His palm. Hallelujah! The world says
“keep and receive” to get abundant harvest, God says give and give to get
overflowing abundance.
