WONDERS OF GIVING, TURNING FINANCIAL HOPELESS SITUATIONS AROUND

Ministering: Pastor Emmanuel Asaaju
1 Kings 17:8-16, “8And the word of the LORD came unto him, saying, 9Arise, get thee to Zarephath, which belongeth to Zidon, and dwell there: behold, I have commanded a widow woman there to sustain thee. 10So he arose and went to Zarephath. And when he came to the gate of the city, behold, the widow woman was there gathering of sticks: and he called to her, and said, Fetch me, I pray thee, a little water in a vessel, that I may drink. 11And as she was going to fetch it, he called to her, and said, Bring me, I pray thee, a morsel of bread in thine hand. 12And she said, As the LORD thy God liveth, I have not a cake, but an handful of meal in a barrel, and a little oil in a cruse: and, behold, I am gathering two sticks, that I may go in and dress it for me and my son, that we may eat it, and die. 13And Elijah said unto her, Fear not; go and do as thou hast said: but make me thereof a little cake first, and bring it unto me, and after make for thee and for thy son. 14For thus saith the LORD God of Israel, The barrel of meal shall not waste, neither shall the cruse of oil fail, until the day that the LORD sendeth rain upon the earth. 15And she went and did according to the saying of Elijah: and she, and he, and her house, did eat many days. 16And the barrel of meal wasted not, neither did the cruse of oil fail, according to the word of the LORD, which he spake by Elijah.”
The wonders of giving can be seen as a result of proofs of our giving. It is only a fool that doubts proofs. There is a hidden potential in giving that can turn the life of a giver around. God will turn your financial situation around in the name of Jesus Christ. Your breakthrough is connects to the life of giving. It does not matter your level, every opportunity to give is a key to your next lifting in life. God sees beyond what we see. So anytime He gives you opportunity to give out, you must know that it is your opportunity to be connected to the next level. Your next giving will bring a turnaround to your life in Jesus’ name. Most times, we have turned giving to a religion which is not supposed to be.
THERE ARE FUNDAMENTAL THINGS TO YOUR GIVING.
- You must give yourself out to God Roman 12:1, “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.” You must give yourself on the altar of salvation and to the total lordship of Christ Jesus. You should not be a mere church goer without having personal encounter with Jesus Christ. You must have deep fellowship with Him. You must search for the mysteries of Christ Jesus every day of your life.
- You must give yourself in service to God and humanity. 2 kings 8:19, “Yet the LORD would not destroy Judah for David his servant’s sake, as he promised him to give him always a light, and to his children.” Genesis 26:24, “And the LORD appeared unto him the same night, and said, I am the God of Abraham thy father: fear not, for I am with thee, and will bless thee, and multiply thy seed for my servant Abraham’s sake.”
- You must trust God with all your heart. Many come to God but do not trust God. You must trust Him in all things and at all times. Genesis 12:1, “Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that I will shew thee:” His action was absolute trust in God, without doubting Him. Genesis 22:2, “And he said, Take now thy son, thine only son Isaac, whom thou lovest, and get thee into the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell thee of.” That widow did not question the prophet’s instruction. She followed it and God turned her situation around for good. Every situation that wants you to have sorrowful end, the Almighty God will terminate it now in the name of Jesus Christ.
- You must give your seed, time and your money. Genesis 8:22, “While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease. Proverbs 11:24-25, “24There is that scattereth, and yet increaseth; and there is that withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth to poverty. 25The liberal soul shall be made fat: and he that watereth shall be watered also himself.”
You must give with knowledge of whom You believe in. You must not give out of religion or ignorance, but with a deep understanding of who You know as your source. Our giving must be through faith, love and commitment.
Matthew 25:36, “Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.”
HIDDEN WONDERS OF GIVING:
- When you give, your giving will open your life up for divine order. Laws and principles of giving will work wonders for you. You will break protocols and all limitations. Every limitation over your finance is broken now in the name of Jesus Christ. It opens your spiritual channel up for leading and divine direction.
- Giving will connect you to your blessings in line with God’s plan for your life. She was a widow; the line of turnaround in her life was a prophet. Until that widow released her last, no prophetic word was released to her. Her giving connects her to that prophetic word that turned her situation around.
- Giving will terminate that expected shameful situation. Where people have been expecting you to be put to shame, the resurrection power of Jesus Christ terminates it now in the name of Jesus Christ. Luke 21:1-4, “1And he looked up, and saw the rich men casting their gifts into the treasury. 2And he saw also a certain poor widow casting in thither two mites. 3And he said, Of a truth I say unto you, that this poor widow hath cast in more than they all: 4For all these have of their abundance cast in unto the offerings of God: but she of her penury hath cast in all the living that she had.”
- Giving attracts divine action of unmerited favour and kindness because your seed and heart of giving will open doors for you in a place that matter most in life.
- Giving will give you access to divine wonders and sustenance.
You must give to your parent, your spiritual fathers, mentors, needy, kingdom works etc. and things will be turned around for good in your in the name of Jesus Christ.
