Managing My Receiving (5 of 7)
Series: Biblical Money Management
Frank Damazio
Introduction: The principle of receiving is scriptural, as is the principle of reaping. Reaping is receiving, reaping is fulfillment, reaping is finishing the course, reaping is the receiver's reward. All seed will produce more than what is planted, so it is in God's economy. We plant, life and work waters, but God gives the increase. We are positioning ourselves for increase, both individually and corporately. We are believing to receive our full portion. We come with open hearts and open hands, prayerfully saying, "God, pour into our hands your sovereign, divine provision." Scripture says "Everyone who asks, receives." We are asking for increase, blessing, multiplication, and miracles. God, you desire to bless us and we desire to receive. We sow not only money as our seed, but also prayer, faith, evangelism. The world is in desperate need and there are souls we need to harvest for Christ. The advance of the gospel requires the investment of dedicated believers. We choose to advance, knowing it requires more resources to reach our region and beyond. It takes you the believer to become a giver and a receiver. To give without faith to receive cuts the process in half.
