June 23, 2024 "Genuine Offering" (2 Corinthians 9:1-8)



Genuine offering  

1 Corinthians :1-8

 

A very touchy subject is offering. We don't like to talk about money, and it is harder when the money is being offered.

 

We need to prepare our offering intentionally with an understanding that everything belongs to God. Much the same when we prepare to worship God our worship is much better. The more we prepare the better the service goes. Preparing our heart for offering or service will make a huge difference.

 

If we are prepared to make offering and our hearts are soft, then the offering will not be a burden.

 

If we believe that God is our priority, then giving an offering is a blessing. If we believe that God will provide whatever we need, then it will be able to give easily and cheerfully.

 

2 Corinthians 9:6 ESV

[6] The point is this: whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows bountifully will also reap bountifully.  

 

It is not only money that we can give. We can give our time, our day, our service, our prayers, our lives. We need to prepare our hearts to accept God's word.

 

Is our spare time used for us or for God. Is our left-over time given to God after everything else has been done. Our meditation and Bible study should be our priority not an afterthought.

 

When we give our time ad offerings to God a genuine gratitude to God, we will be blessed
