LOVE OR SELFISHNESS?

“Because he has set his love upon Me, therefore I will deliver him…Psalm 91.14”

Why many of those who have sought God’s presence everyday through prayers, fasting and even making vows, giving offerings and paying tithes can’t overcome their problems? What has made them remain in the church for years and years living the same type of life? Has the word of God changed? Has God’s promise lost its valor? Certainly not! As a matter of fact, the majority of those who have come to church has and their heart a unique intention which is to ask and receive something from Him, few are those whose intention is to give and we all know that with God if we don’t give we don’t receive and once we don’t receive how can one’s life change? It’s not enough to give tithe and offerings nor help doing something in the church it’s more than necessary to give all onto His hands, God doesn’t accept 99% of our life He wants 100%, when we really love we give everything without hesitating and this is the secret to enjoy the abundant life promised in the Bible.

Make sure to throw yourself into His hands and he will give you the type of life you most expect to live in this world.

Give, and it will be given to you; good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be put into your bosom. For with the measure that you use, it will be measured back to you.” Luke 6.38
