Giving Expecting Specificly, but not generally: How?

God can only bless us as we totally surrender alligience to Him by obeying or doing what God in His Word tells us. The will of God is not always happiness but joy along the way. It's not just about money nor prosperity as some say this on TV mistakenly by Christian TV Preachers.

We think of giving with expecting something when we think outside the box of obedience to His will. God has a usual way of working and we call this His way or better, His principle. When we honor by obedience to principle and specific do it we are rewarded "in the relationship" and that is first spiritually and if God wills, materially.

It is not an option not to be givers nor obeyers but focus and concentration when life becomes bitter and we don't see the answers come (the way we want them,) becomes necessary.

God has you and me in mind all the time because He loves you and me all the time: He's trying to get you in conformity with the image of His Son, Christ. So God may allow troubles and afflictions if it means a greater vessel for His use and a greater joy in heaven for you by deepening your character through suffering.

Christ is going to take a stand for you but down on this earth you will be persecuted for doing right things. Jesus says we can make it because He overcame this world. He will live through you. You will recognize Him in your hearts. Just be sure you have identified with the Risen Christ in a relationship daily, by obeying, giving, trusting. By grace you are saved, not works however. Phil 3:10;I Peter 4:13,14; Col. 1:24; 2 Cor 9, 10.

"If you abide in Me (Jesus) and My words abide you, you will ask whatever you wish and it shall be done for you by My Father, so proving you to be My disciples." John 15

It's nice to see a message from a Christian that doesn't threaten the rest of us with eternal suffering. Very refreshing indeed. Posters here in the South are VERY different.

You and me I don't worry about, but it's that "other fellow" who doesn't seem to fit. A Hassidic friend of mine says his Rabbi assures him there is a great era of peace, prosperity and good will just around the corner. There's only one catch, first they got to get rid of the Arabs.

Let me introduce myself. I'm Dave C. I'm a Blood washed born again Christian, believe in the Gift of Righteousness found in God's Son, take a stand for a new standard, make no apologies for it and attend church Services at an Assemblies Of God church in NYC suburb. I've accepted Christ as my Savior and Lord. I was four. Being all God wants me to be is a part of my calling I'm pursuing in God. I'm 50 years old and loving being single and freed up love to my family and church family. I Algebra tutor math to a twelve year old child. As well I'm a Gideon who distributes Bibles to many needy locations. God's unconditional love is totally awesome. I witness with joy to My Jesus My comfort, for he has taken my sins away! I do this as I can with a song and an upbeat message to all who will listen of Jesus, and His saving Power, for without Him we can do nothing. With Christ we can reign in God and in life to all possibilities from God's radical grace in Him Romans 5:17;8:1. He's made something... beautiful... out of my life! "Are you tired of chasing pretty rainbows? Are you tired of spinning round and round. Wrap up all the shattered dreams of your life... and at the feet of Jesus lay them down. Give them all, give them all, give them all to Jesus, shattered dreams, wounded hearts, broken toys, give them all, give them all, give them all to Jesus, And He will turn your sorrow into joy" You gotaaaa hear Evie sing this song by the way! Here's another, "Not gonna bow to your idol. I won't bow oh no. I won't bow oh no. We don't have to give in to it. We can choose to go against the crowd. Not gonna bow to your idol." And, "I'm trading my sorrow. I'm trading my shame. I'm layin them down for the joy of the Lord."
