Pray for the Continuing Release of Financial Provision to Fulfill the Vision and the Work of the Ministry.
Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be put into your bosom. For with the same measure that you use, it will be measured back to you.”
God uses us to provide for His Kingdom work. He could make money grow on a tree or come out of a fishes mouth but he chooses to bless us in the process.
Then everyone came whose heart was stirred, and everyone whose spirit was willing, and they brought the Lord’s offering for the work of the tabernacle of meeting, for all its service, and for the holy garments.
But this I say: He who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully.
So let each one give as he purposes in his heart, not grudgingly or of necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver.
Nothing compares to God’s faithfulness in our giving.
We can never out-give the lord
The life we live is limited to our perspective on Giving.
Now we are asking in faith, for something that we don’t have. But we do have a seed we can plant.
We provide a seed with our prayers… We Give God something to work with. This will show our faith!
So Jesus answered and said to them, “Have faith in God.
For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says.
Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them.
The prayer we are to make is a prayer of Faith.
Do Not doubt. If you doubt then don’t engage. Cause anything you do without faith is sin.
Make Sure It’s God.
We are told to Judge the Spirits. The voices we hear. We must take the time to examine what we believe in. If it is indeed God. This process isn’t always a rational one. You need the Holy Spirit to lead you into this place. Into this conversation.
Is there peace in it? Is there Life in it? Is there Love in it? If not then it probably isn’t for you. God might not have this for your life.
So before you prayer make sure you believe in this project. That we are to build the House of God and bring it to a place that represents God’s presence here.
I know in our natural minds we could argue the purpose or the intent of God in doing this but this is not a time for leaning on our understanding its a time to lean on our trust of the Lord. If He said it we must move on it!
If it is God Get behind it with all your heart! Go for it all out! Let’s hold back nothing!
If you first believe with your heart. Now lets ask. Lets seek God’s help to increase our seed! To multiply our harvests and yields.
Spend Time seeking God’s heart in this. Then pray a prayer of faith! believing and acting upon your faith.
Honor the Lord with your possessions, And with the firstfruits of all your increase;
So your barns will be filled with plenty, And your vats will overflow with new wine.
Declare His glory among the nations, His wonders among all peoples.
