A WORD IN DUE SEASON

Generosity.

“Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.”
Matthew 7:12

Generosity or kindness also helps to facilitate favour. Therefore, if you sow kindness to others, you will reap it also.

Proverbs 19:22 (TLB) says, “Kindness makes a man attractive… ” This shows that the attractiveness of a man is in his kindness. When you are kind and generous you will always have favour.

When you are a person that is always asking and seeking for free things from everyone, it shows that you are a selfish person. Selfishness will not facilitate the favour of God in your life.

Giving facilitates favour in your life. One of the things that you should give scripturally as a Christian is your first fruit. Ezekiel 44:30 says, “And the first of all the firstfruits of all things, and every oblation of all, of every sort of your oblations, shall be the priest's: ye shall also give unto the priest the first of your dough, that he may cause the blessing to
rest in thine house.” Do this because as you do, you are activating favour.

Prayer.
Dear Father, I ask that You cause the love and compassion of Christ to flow through me to everyone within my sphere of contact, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

For further study, read:
Genesis 4:1-4, Genesis 22:15-18, Hebrews 11:4.

Doing the Word
Be generous and kind to those around you, also learn to give God your best.
