INTRODUCTION:
In the last part of this series, we learnt that our God is good in record keeping and that the blood of Jesus Christ His Son is able to wipe off our bad records if only we repent and turn away from our sins. As we continue in our studies today, may the good Lord bless us richly in Jesus Mighty Name.
1. GIVING UNTO THE WORK. For the work of God to advance, God requires from us not only our time and labour but also our substance. No wonder Apostle Paul said "I will very gladly spend and be spent. ... " Neh. 7:70, II Cor. 12:15, Ps. 106:1, 118:1, Prov. 25:21, Mt. 25:35, Mt. 19:21-22, Mal. 3:10, Heb. 7:2, Neh. 4:6,16, Lk. 6:38, 2 Sam. 24:24, II Cor. 9:7, Jn. 3:16, Eph. 5:2, Jn.10:11.
2. REWARDS OF GIVING Giving unto the work of God is a divine investment that can never fail to yield its divine dividends and interests. Lk. 6:38, Mt. 10:41-42, Prov. 11:24-25, Acts 20:35, Mal. 3:11, Phil. 4:18-19, II Cor. 9:6, Gal. 6:7
