The more you give to God, the more He’ll give to you!!!


 



There is a song that we always used to sing in church and it says,



You can’t beat God Giving.  No matter how you try.  The more you give to God, the more He’ll give to you.  It’s really true!  You can’t beat God giving.  Just keep on giving because it’s really true.  You can’t beat God giving!! 





I found that the original version says, You can’t beat God’s giving!!!  And that is so true!!! 





YOU CAN’T OUT GIVE GOD!!!  I DARE YOU TO TRY!!!





The WORD says that when you give to God, HE will give back to you!!! 

 



Luke 6:38 (KJV) Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.





Let’s look at this part of Luke 6:38, “For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.”





In the CEB it says, “The portion you give will determine the portion you receive in return.”




The CEV says it this way, “The way you treat others is the way you will be treated.”





Now all 3 of these are absolutely correct!!!



What I want you to understand is that when you give a little then you will get a little back.  And when you give a whole lot then you will get a whole lot back!!! 
This is so important!!!  God tells us this more than once in HIS WORD!!!   

 


2 Corinthians 9:6 (NKJV) But this I say: He who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully.






2 Corinthians 9:6-11 (CEV)

6Remember this saying,
   "A few seeds make a small harvest,
   but a lot of seeds make a big harvest."

7Each of you must make up your own mind about how much to give. But don't feel sorry that you must give and don't feel that you are forced to give. God loves people who love to give.

8God can bless you with everything you need, and you will always have more than enough to do all kinds of good things for others.

9The Scriptures say,
   "God freely gives his gifts to the poor, and always does right."

10God gives seed to farmers and provides everyone with food. He will increase what you have, so that you can give even more to those in need.

11You will be blessed in every way, and you will be able to keep on being generous. Then many people will thank God when we deliver your gift.





I am living proof that
THE WORD WORKS!!!  If you do what THE WORD says, it will work for you just like it works for me!!!  You simply CANNOT BEAT GOD GIVING!!!




I have given and given and still GOD GIVES BACK MORE AND MORE AND MORE AND MORE!!!! 





He is ALL the time giving to me!!!  AND BLESSING ME AND SHOWING ME THAT HE LOVES ME!!!  And HE WANTS TO DO THIS FOR EVERY ONE OF HIS CHILDREN!!! 





Matthew 7:9-11 (CEB)


9
Who among you will give your children a stone when they ask for bread?

10 Or give them a snake when they ask for fish?

11 If you who are evil know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give good things to those who ask him.






God wants to give us EVERY GOOD THING!!!




Psalm 37:4 (AMP) Delight yourself also in the Lord, and He will give you the desires and secret petitions of your heart.






But
HE CAN ONLY BLESS US ACCORDING TO HIS WORD!!!  HE WROTE THE WORD AND HE HAS TO FOLLOW HIS WORD JUST LIKE WE DO!!!  




One of my most favorite scriptures says,
“…prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.” 




Malachi 3:10-11 (KJV)


 10Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.
 11And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field, saith the LORD of hosts.



Do you see that God says???  HE WILL REBUKE THE DEVOURER FOR YOUR SAKES???  WHEN WE PAY OUR TITHES AND GIVE OUR OFFERING UNTO GOD, THEN HE REBUKES THE DEVOURER FOR OUR SAKES!!!! 





COULD IT GET ANY BETTER THAN THAT???  Can it get any better than to know that GOD HIMSELF looks the devil right in the eye and says, you can’t go near Kathy’s property or any of her stuff, because she pays her tithes and offerings!!!





I just don’t know how anyone lives without GOD!!!  The truth is that they aren’t really living!!!  THEY ARE JUST GETTING BY!!! 





ME, I LIVE BY GOD’S WORD!!!  I STAND ON HIS WORD, AND I AM BLESSED!!!




Philippians 4:19 (NKJV) And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

 




Everything I put my hand to prospers!!! 




Deuteronomy 12:7 (NKJV) And there you shall eat before the Lord your God, and you shall rejoice in all to which you have put your hand, you and your households, in which the Lord your God has blessed you.

 



David, The King of Israel, wrote this. That is taking about our children!!!  Did you know that God will take care of your children and bless them because of you??? 
 




Psalm 37:25 (NKJV) I have been young, and now am old; Yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken, Nor his descendants begging bread.
