'Never search for excuses not to give' - Pastor David Okoye
"John answered and said, A man can receive nothing except it be given him from heaven". John 3:27
There are men that are natural misers who are only comfortable when they do not have to share what they have acquired in life with others around them. They search for excuses not to give. They are that way because the revelation of the above scripture hasn't gotten home to them yet. When a man understands that all he has is by grace and not just as a result of the fact that they worked hard, they would become givers.
God gave us that we might become his giving channel to the world and not to hoard them under the earth. There is a grace to give that comes to a man's life when he understands the source of his blessings.
Observably, most tight-fisted people don't go beyond a certain limit in their wealth, this is because one would have to give out to create space to receive more. The more you hold back, the less you receive; that is God's principle as stated in Proverbs 11:24, "There is that scattereth, yet increaseth; and there is that withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth to poverty". Become open fisted today and watch your prosperity flourish like a tree by the waterside.
Declaration
I am a giver of life and substance to my world. I do not hold back more than is meet, and I do not give lesser when I know I can do more. Therefore I know I have more than enough for myself and for those around me. I have grace to give.
