You Are in a Place of Abundance!

“Thou hast caused men to ride over our heads; we went through fire and through water: but thou broughtest us out into a wealthy place.”
Three powerful verses in Proverbs 11 remind us of the ageless principles of giving. First, you cannot outgive God (Proverbs 11:24) If you give freely, you will gain even more! Giving is the way to abundance and increase. Second, if you purpose in life to refresh others and not just yourself, God will be sure to supply your own needs as well (Proverbs 11:25).
You must make it your goal in life to bring joy and happiness to others through giving to them. You will be personally refreshed from watching their joy, and God will make certain that someone comes along occasionally to refresh you!
Finally, if you hoard what you have been given instead of sharing it, you will be cursed instead of blessed (Proverbs 11:26) Because giving is so much like God, when you give, your gift brings you into His economy.
Even though you may have a need, invest in others, and you will gain, prosper and be crowned with blessing!
