NEW NATURE-GIVING

II Corinthians 9: 10-15
PART 2
Now he who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will also supply and increase your store of seed and will enlarge the harvest of your righteousness. You will be made rich in every way so that you can be generous on every occasion, and through us your generosity will result in thanksgiving to GOD.
This service that you perform is not only supplying the needs of GOD'S people but is also overflowing in many expressions of thanks to GOD. Because of the service by which you have proved yourselves, men will praise GOD for the obedience that accompanies your confession of the Gospel of Christ, and for your generosity in sharing with them and with everyone else. And in their prayers for you their hearts will go out to you, because of the surpassing grace GOD has given you. Thanks be to GOD for His indescribable gift!

HE WHO SUPPLIES, WILL SUPPLY

GOD
is the supplier of every good thing. He supplies the seed, the desire to give, goodness, righteousness and the life of His Son, the good news that we give to others so that they, too will be saved. GOD is the supplier of every good thing. Goodness can only come from GOD, the enemy can only copy goodness, he can not create anything that is, in essence, good. You can identify the copy cat goodness by the strings attached. The LORD gives with no strings attached, no hoops to jump through, no forms to fill out; the gift of GOD is for whosoever is in need, just receive His gifts without condition.

What is the purpose of the unconditional gifts? To bring all souls to Christ and that they will be saved from the grip of the enemy. Since GOD gave all that He had for all to be saved, our obedience to Him paves the way for others to be saved.

What is our part? There are some ways that we have a part in the plan of GOD. Our faith in JESUS; our faith in His finished work; our proclamation of the Gospel; our worship of Him; our thanksgiving for all that He has done; our obedience to His call to go to those in need and to supply their need; these things are our part of GOD'S work. The life-line of GOD to man is in our response to His call to give.

GIVE WITHOUT COUNTING THE COST, GIVE AND IT SHALL BE GIVEN TO YOU, GIVE AND YOU WILL BE BLESSED, GIVE FROM THE STOREHOUSE OF GOD, GIVE HIS UNCONDITIONAL LOVE.
