Jesus came into this world to save, to
heal, to GIVE Himself as a ransom for many. He did not come into this
world to take anything out of it. He brought us salvation. He showed
His compassion to those who were poor, needy, sick and hungry.
If we are children of God and the
Spirit of Christ lives in us we will have that same attitude that was
in Jesus Christ. We will also rather GIVE than receive. We will GIVE
ourselves to this world and to Jesus, and to God our Father. We will
not be on the TAKE.
Many believers have open hands. They
just want to receive. They want salvation FREE, they just WANT and
WANT and WANT. If we have the Spirit of Christ in us we will be
givers. Jesus said it is more blessed to GIVE than to RECEIVE. If we
do not have anything to give we are POOR. If we don't have Jesus in
us to give to this world then we are the poorest of all men even
though we might be rich. Many believers are rich but inside they are
poor because they don't have Jesus, they don't have LOVE, they don't
have compassion. They maybe have money and earthly possessions but
they are poor and naked and blind because the love of Christ is not
inside of them.
If we have the love of Christ in us we
will be giving, love and adoration to Jesus our Master, and to God
our Father; we will give God the respect due to Him. We will give
Jesus who lives in us to the world around us. How much Jesus do we
have inside of us? How much are we giving of ourselves for the
Kingdom of God? Are we on the TAKE or are we giving, our time, our
resources? Are we giving of ourselves for the Kingdom of God? Because
if we don't GIVE we will not RECEIVE. If we want eternal life we
have to give ourselves to the Kingdom of God.
May Jesus bless you.
