DAMNABLE, BUT REWARDABLE

 For taking your time to study remain blessed.

Saturday 9th October 

LET NOT YOUR GIVING BE 

DAMNABLE, BUT REWARDABLE

TEXT:  MATTHEW 6:1-4 

Key verse: “Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory, but in lowliness of mind 

let each esteem other better than themselves.” Philippians 2:3.

There are things to guard against in the ministry of giving for the work of God and for the welfare of the brethren. To maintain your righteousness and enjoy the rewards of Christian giving, the following should be observed:

· Guard against pride and high-mindedness in your life due to praise and  honour of men 

· Guard against rough and arrogant utterances due to pride.

· Guard against men giving you worship and undue praise due to the kindness they enjoy from you.

· Do not over-enrich a church or a man of God till they lose focus on God and begin to serve money.

· If you have much to give, remember other true churches and men of God. God wants them to enjoy His sufficient supply too.

· Make sure you do not remove the faith of the man of God from God to yourself and that you do not take over the control of the man of God or the church from God through your money. 

· Deal wisely and humbly in all situations.

· In wisdom, use diverse methods in ministering your gifts for the purpose of protecting yourself and others, giving all the glory to God.

· Pray always for God to give you sufficient grace and victory against Satan who always seeks to corrupt your service before God.

Some cases of Christian giving may require sufficient counsel before you embark on them. Seek godly counsel in such cases, that your good deed may not be misinterpreted. You may be poor or in need requiring help, do not put your trust in man or even in the good man that God uses to bless you. Put your trust in God. Let your heart stay with God. He is the one that uses man to do good. 

Thought for the day: Deal wisely and humbly in all situations  

Song for the day: Take my life and let it be consecrated Lord to Thee 

Bible reading for the day: Isaiah 41-42; Colossians 1

Every Word Of God For Daily Living For taking your time to study remain blessed July Tuesday 9th TOPIC: WE ARE IN THE TWILIGHT HOUR OF RAPTURE TEXT: Ephesians 5:26-27 KEY VERSE: Hebrews 9:28 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation. Seeing the traces of the features of the next dispensation in this present dispensation, you should know that you are in the twilight hour. What is a twilight hour? A twilight hour is that hour of the day that you begin to see the traces of the night while it is still daylight (probably 7:00pm to 7:30pm). It is not completely dark, yet it is not complete bright either. While it is still day, you are seeing the traces of the night. A twilight hour is the hour when you are still in this dispensation but you are already seeing traces of the next. The twilight hour is the time that our Lord Jesus Christ was born and even though He came with the New Test...
