Today I want to share Jerry Savelle's website devotional!
WHAT IS IN YOUR HAND?
Today I want to encourage you to start giving where you are.
Don’t wait until you have millions and all the conditions are perfect in your
life before you start giving. If you don’t start where you are, then you will
never experience God’s best for your life.
There are never “perfect” conditions, but you must start
anyway. Jesus said when you are faithful with little, then He will trust you
with more (Matthew 25:21). You cannot begin to prosper if you are not willing
to start giving where you are right now.
Do you know what God said to Moses when he was about to lead
the children of Israel out of Egypt?
He said, “What is that in your hand?”
Moses, “A stick.”
God, “I can use that stick.”
All Moses had was a stick, a rod. Yet God said that He could
use it.
And God can use anything that you give to Him, you just have
to start. If you don’t have anything but $1.00, give that $1.00 and give it
with the right attitude. Give it with a thankful heart. If you don’t have a
$1.00, then give 25 cents. If you don’t have that, then go volunteer to rake
leaves or clean toilets at your church. Give God something to work with and He
will honor it.
The important thing is to start now. Show God that you will
be faithful. Sow what you can. And God promises in 2 Corinthians 9:10 that
He will increase your resources for sowing.
I read this a long time ago and wanted to share it with you,
“It is possible to give to someone without truly loving them. But it is
impossible to love someone and not give to them.” If you say that you love God,
you really love God, then it is impossible to not give to Him. Because love
always gives.
So, I’m asking the question, “What’s that in your hand?” Let
God use it and watch him begin to bless you!
AMEN! And THAT is how we receive anything and everything from the hands of God! We start right where we are! We find out what the Word of God says about our situation. Now we meditate on that WORD until we 'SEE' it! Then we declare, proclaim, and confess that we HAVE the answer the moment we prayed. NOW we simnply continue to rejoice as though we could already SEE it, and then we WILL! AMEN! Here is Hillsong with "Say The Word":Shalom in Him!
