Receiving what you Give

05 Jan

“Now the Lord said to Abram, “Go from your country and your kindred and your father’s house to the land that I will show you. And I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you and make your name great, so that you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and him who dishonors you I will curse, and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.”” (Genesis 12:1–3 ESV)

The Bible is filled with a principle of sowing and reaping. Look at what God tells Abram, my paraphrase: “Whoever does you good, I will do good to them. Whoever does bad to you, I will do really bad to them! And you and your family will be blessed!”

Don’t you just love that? Chew on it a bit and see what the Holy Spirit says to you.

Just a few other thoughts ~ free of charge of course ~ and by the way, it not all about money …..

“The wicked earns deceptive wages, but one who sows righteousness gets a sure reward.” (Proverbs 11:18 ESV)

“The point is this: whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows bountifully will also reap bountifully.” (2 Corinthians 9:6 ESV)
