God Gives More
“Give, and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you.” - Luke 6:38
Did you know that you cannot “out-give” God? That’s right. Whatever you give, God can multiply. When you give with a cheerful heart, without any expectation of return, that is when God blesses you.
He tells us this in Luke 6:38 which says, “Give, and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you.”
Did you catch that? Whatever you give, will be given back to you, but tenfold! It will be given back, pressed down, and RUNNING OVER. That means that God will bless you, it will be in abundance or what you could do for yourself.
Whenever you give to others, God right back to you. That is the type of God He is. Being obedient to God isn’t always easy. It isn’t always easy to give without expectation. We are so used to being “matchers,” expending that our kindness be matched or at least appreciated in some tangible form.
But when we give without expectation, especially when you know the person can never return the favor, God will bless us. And God’s blessings are far greater than what any person can match.
No, you cannot out-give God. When you are obedient to Him, He rewards you. And His rewards are always worth it. Obeying God is always the right choice, especially when it comes to giving!
