A Generous Person Will Prosper

          A generous person will prosper; whoever refreshes others will be refreshed - Proverbs 11:25.              

               We will prosper when we are generous as good will come to us. Good will come to those who are generous and lend freely - Psalm 112:5. What we give will be given back to us. 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 - Luke 6:38.

         Our God is a generous giver. If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you - James 1:5. He gives us richly all things to enjoy - 1 Timothy 6:17. Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us - Ephesians 3:20. 

              Let us be generous and be blessed. The generous will themselves be blessed - Proverbs 22:9.  It is more blessed to give than to receive - Acts 20:35. But this I say: He who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully. Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver - 2 Corinthians 9:6, 7.

                                                                 

PRAYER: Dear Lord, You are a generous God. Let us be generous and prosper. In Jesus' name we pray. Amen.
