The secret of giving.
The earth has these two principles which no man can skip in life.
1.Giving
2.Receiving
You could be
asking yourself "What is this guy talking about? Is he crazy ?!”. And you
might also ask yourself "Why did he begin with giving and not
receiving?"
Allow me to
start this way, we all know that John 3:16 starts this way "For God so
loved the world that he gave…"The first way in which God's love is
expressed is through giving. Allow me to launch us deeper in this mind shared.
You and I
today are able to receive Eternal life because God "Gave" his
begotten son; underline the word gave ...
I know you
might be saying that, "Salvation is free ", but salvation wasn’t
actually free and here is why it wasn’t; "Christ firstly had to be given
to die for my sins and yours!"
So my point
here is this; that if God wouldn’t have given us Christ,
me and you today wouldn’t have received His
life (Eternal life). Therefore, by this we understand that Giving precedes
Receiving.
This only means
that me and you are able to enjoy God's life because Christ gave up His.
Therefore,
the formula can’t be broken; Giving and Receiving go hand in hand. By these two
salvation was completed; "through Christ's giving up of His life and us
receiving it."
So your
ability to give equals to your ability to receive since these two abide
together. The more your ability to give the more your ability to receive.
Also
something I should add is that, "what you have can only multiply when you
give it."
So today me
and you are able to receive Christ and much more that comes with Him because
Christ gave His life so that He can multiply Himself in as many as those who
have believed and will believe on Him, all because He gave His life first!
