Beloved, you should be a voluntary giver. The Bible affirms that Zacchaeus gave his goods to feed the poor without being asked (Luke 19:1-9). He is a worthy example and I advise that you imitate him. Psalm 41:1-3 says, “Blessed is he that considereth the poor: the LORD will deliver him in time of trouble. The LORD will preserve him, and keep him alive; and he shall be blessed upon the earth: and thou wilt not deliver him unto the will of his enemies. The LORD will strengthen him upon the bed of languishing: thou wilt make all his bed in his sickness.”
Another type of giver you should be is an unpretentious giver. In giving, you should be modest and unassuming; don’t try to impress others or make a show of your giving. In Luke 10:25-37, the Bible relates the story of a traveller who was attacked by armed robbers, wounded and left half dead. Though a priest and a Levite_both ignored the man, the Samaritan had compassion on him. He bound up his wounds, poured oil and wine on it, set him on his beast and took him to an inn to take care of him. He paid for the sick man’s treatment and promised to pay more when he returned from his trip. I want you to note that the Samaritan did all these without making any show of his giving. Imitate him!
As a believer, the Bible enjoins that you should be a perfumed giver. The Philippians were perfumed givers. The Bible says that their gifts were “an odour of a sweet smell, a sacrifice acceptable, well-pleasing to God (Philippians 4:18). What this means is that they gave a fragrant offering, acceptable sacrifice, pleasing to God. Your giving should have these beautiful features. Finally, you should imitate the greatest giver — God, who gave His only begotten Son for For you and me that you might be safe John 3:16 to 17.
Beloved having learnt the type of giver you should be at the type of revenue wants to be he should not make a decision to be an exemplary giver. Draw up a plan on how to achieve that. Take practical steps to become a faithful giver today. Your rewards will be amazing!
