Be Generous and do good

Galatians 6:6-10

Those who are taught the word do share in all good things with those who teach. God judgement is not a mock trial. We reap what we sow. Let us not grow weary while doing good for in due season we will reap if we do not lose heart. Let us do good to all when we have the opportunity especially to those who are of the household of faith.

1) Be a good steward

2) Judgement is a serious thing.

3) We reap what we sow

4) Don't lose heart in doing good

Being a good steward is using your talents, time and money that God has given you to wise use. Food and shelter should be given in support of the gospel ministry as an expression of stewardship. It would definitely mean our tithes and offerings. When a gospel worker is in need such as perhaps a literature evangelist, we could help our brothers and sisters in Christ.

God's judgement is not a mock trial. I should not treat it lightly, it is real, it does not involve my temporal life which I already cling onto so dearly or at least treasure to a measurable extent but this involves my eternal life. I must be serious when it comes to the judgement and not take God lightly at His word.

We will reap in this life and in the final judgement. We can cultivate the fruits of the Spirit if we sow to the Spirit. My actions are important. Character is after all the only thing I can bring to heaven. It is not my body, my possessions but my character that I should do well to mold here.

Doing good is the summation of the law. We will reap in this life and at the 2nd coming of Jesus so let us not lose heart. Doing good is worth it. Jesus love makes me want to pass that light, that goodness and that love on to another.
