Healthy Stewardship: Faithfully Caring for God's ProvisionsSample

Day 9: Generosity as Stewardship

Scripture: 2 Corinthians 9:6-7 (NKJV)

The Cheerful Giver

But this I say: He who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully. So let each one give as he purposes in his heart, not grudgingly or of necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver.

Reflection: Generosity is a key aspect of stewardship. How can you be more generous in your life? Are there areas that bring resistance to the thought of being generous? If so pray for revelation as to why it evokes such an emotion.

Prayer: Lord, cultivate a spirit of generosity in my heart. Show me where and why I am resistant in any area and allow me the opportunity to repent in correction. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
