Be generous

â€˜You shall open your hand wide.' Deuteronomy 15:8 NKJV

God instructed the Israelites, The only way to maintain an attitude of generosity is to make a habit of giving of your time, attentiveness, money and resources. While it's hard to let go of possessions, doing so begins to loosen the self-centred greed within. Think about what you're already giving, what you've been asked to give, and what you would like to give. Your reasons for granting or denying a request for financial help may be valid, but are they godly? Think about how it feels when you give, and let that be your guide.

SoulFood: Hosea 6-10, Luke 1:39-56, Ps 139:7-12, Pr 13:24

THE HOLY SPIRIT

It is one thing to receive the anointing and another to keep growing on it. There are people who had the anointing, but today, everything has virtually ebbed out. It is possible to connect with the Holy Spirit and to continue to flow in the power of the anointing even at increasing levels. If this is your desire,...More

BEFORE YOU GET ANGRY

Yesterday we learnt it is not right for us to get angry with God or to take offence against Him, even if we experience the deferment of our hopes. The example of John the Baptist who earlier acknowledged Jesus as the Messiah, but later doubted Him because of his painful experience of incarceration is a warning...More
