TRIBE OF LENDERS

TRIBE OF LENDERS

 Proverbs 19:17

 He who is kind and generous to the poor lends to the Lord, and he will reward him for what he has done.
--------------------------------------------
It is easy to go through life with the mind of "it's not enough...it's not enough". By nature, we were created to recognize the fact that it's we first then ....
We were created to survive and always know that there is not enough. Our genes have been made to think about ourselves alone and how we survive in the world of scarcity.

This fact that thrives within us is not supposed to be proved true. There are several results that God has set for those that prove such rules wrong. You know, when you try to go against human nature and try to mimic the nature of God, you attract more of what God has set for the cause. As the human nature is self centered and self seeking, stepping out of such to pursue kindness and open hands attracts God's attention...it attracts the rewards.

God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son. This act showed the open hands God had to humanity. Whoever mimics such character of having open hands attracts more of God. And what does God have? His properties ranges from gold, diamonds, emeralds, Sapphire, to things beyond knowledge.

The verse of today talks about being generous to the poor. And what happens, you become a lender to God. When you give to the poor you make God owe you. You join the tribe of lenders.
There is no verse in the Bible where God says He will owe things to someone like He does it with giving. And of course His collateral is high notch ...it's in gold, emeralds...and so on.
Lending of course attracts interest on it. The money Lent out comes back more than it went out. And for this case, the things given to the poor come back in more measure. 
Do not wait for God to pour out His blessings because you pray to become wealthy. He desires you to give . He desires you have open hands. This is where He will open the flood gates of heaven to pour out so much blessing. There is no record of a generous person who was known to be poor. Giving is a sign that you have more and God should continue to bless you to help .
Be generous in this tribe, God will workout to see you compensated in full.

                     GOD BLESS YOU

OLDEN STRENGTH

OLDEN STRENGTH Psalm 77:1 I will remember the deeds of the Lord; yes, I will remember your miracles of long ago. -------------------------------------------- It is easy to go through life thinking about the future and forgetting the past. Craving for the future is one thing I have realized does not end. Even the very rich still have cravings. There can not be a moment where cravings end and the mind is inactive only thriving in gratification. Such a moment is only created by us. Anyway, that was a by- the- way. Our point starts from here. The future does not hold the roots but the past does. The roots are not from the sky but are from where the tree started. What makes the tree strong are the roots .  What makes the future strong are the roots. They are the past. You cannot know where you should go unless you know where you came from. How typical you may know where you came from is another factor.  Knowing that God is great is not knowing the future that holds. Knowing that Go...

FORWARD

FORWARD Luke 13:33  In any case, I must press on today and tomorrow and the next day—... --------------------------------------------    A Levite in the desert thought was cunning. After killing the Egyptian, he sauntered back to the community. Little did he realise that he was noticed by his fellow and that the news had gone about faster than it could. Knowing this, he fled to Midian where he met the Lord. And being asked by the Lord to rescue his people from slavery, Moses refused. He thought that role was better with someone more superior. But after the Lord insisting, he took the task. The people who were thought as slaves were no lesser to stubbornness and disrespect. They gave Moses hard time. But one thing that happened was forward movement.  Even the Lord used lots of wonders to sustain them through the journey and yet many died from their stubbornness. But regardless of their deaths, the journey went forward. God moved forward. Moses faced the worst of trial...
