God's Kingdom A Family
In every family, there are benefits and responsibility.
Being a son or daughter of your parents, you're entitled to so many benefits such as food, clothing, shelter, school fees etc.
You also have a responsibility to sweep the house, wash the dishes, cars... To the degree of how responsible you are in the family, is the degree you enjoy the benefits.
The kingdom of God also is a family with both benefits and responsibility. Salvation, divine health, prosperity, longevity, protection... are all the benefits of redemption.
In God's family, we're not only entitled to benefits; we also have a responsibility such as soul wining, commitment to the study of God's word, prayer, fasting, giving etc.
As a son or daughter of God, when you're being reprimanded to win souls for God through evangelism, or to study Gods word, pray, fast, give, it is a sign that you're irresponsible.
Every true son or daughter in a family seeks for
the wellbeing of the family; what to do to move the family forward.
Many Christians claim to love God, yet they don't pay their tight. How can you claim to love God when you're not interested in advancing His kingdom? God made it clear that it is through prosperity that his kingdom will spread abroad (Zechariah 1:17).
As responsible sons and daughters of God, giving towards the family should be an expression of love. I love God, I'm a member of God's family and I desire it's advancement
so I give....
Your Giving Should Be Propelled By
1. Love for God and
2. Responsibility
When you give or tight you're
1. Acknowledging God as your source
4. Sanctifying your finances.
Awake oh sons and daughters of God. let's be responsible in God's family as we enjoy all the redemptive benefits.
