Today I want to share with you the Principle of Prosperity.
“The harvest depends on how we sow”.
Bible says in 2 Corinthians 9:6 - he who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully.
Sometimes we undermine the power of God’s Word. It's proven through the centuries that God’s Word has always accomplished its meaning whoever have applied it.
We all know that when we sow a seed in the ground, we reap plenty of fruits from it's tree. When we deposit a sum of money in the investment, we reap it with interest in due time.
Likewise, whatever we sow in God’s kingdom, we will reap the great and abundant riches in our lives.
It's not the 10% of our money that God is after, He is after us. He wants us to give our 'entirety' to Him. He wants us to give our heart, soul, mind, body, and spirit.
And when we give our whole being to Him, He has promised us to give back as it says in Luke 6:38 - give, and it will be given to you; good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For the measure you give will be the measure you get back."
I have experience it so many times in my own personal life. The day I learnt about what God had promised, I said to Him, “Ok Lord! because you are always true to your promise I entrust my entire life completely into your hands and now you do the rest.”
Since then I also started giving with a cheerful heart and more than just 10% of my pay. Above and beyond my tithes, I started giving in every fellowship I attended, without counting, whatever amount came into my hand.
Thereafter, God never shortchanged me.
When God called me to Bible College, He sent two unknown persons into my life who wanted to pay for my fees. Later, after I realized from my principal, I had to say ‘no but thanks’ to both of them because someone else had already paid it for me. Even when I came to Singapore, God blessed me with the entire airfare and met all my needs in Singapore, not only financially but also physically, emotionally and spiritually. I never lack anything in His presence. I can truly testify that God’s Word is always true and proven.
We might fail God but God always have kept His promise and remains faithful to His Word forever.
If we put God first in all the areas of our lives, and not just one or two areas where we feel comfortable, he has promised to give back to us with good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over. He has said in His Word in Ps. 23 that when we make the Lord our shepherd, we will never lack anything.

Let us open our hearts to give today with the measure where it stretches our faith and test God’s Word to become true and real in our own personal life.
