THE LAW OF DIVINE RECIPROCITY

January 31, 2024 • Dr Zubeda Sing, Pastor Zubeda Sing

Give, and you will receive. Your gift will return to you in full—pressed down, shaken together to make room for more, running over, and poured into your lap. The amount you give will determine the amount you get back.” Luke 6v38

 

There is a universal law of divine reciprocity (the practice of exchanging things). You give and God gives in return. When you plant a seed, the ground yields a harvest. Even in your relationships.

 

The ground can only give to you, what you give to the ground. When you put money in the bank, the bank gives you interest. That is reciprocity. However, many people want something for nothing when it comes to the things of God, even though they know that is not how it works in the world system. Yet we are always expecting God to send us something when we have not invested anything into the kingdom of God.

 

If you are not investing your time, talent, commitment and your money, why do you want something in return? How can you expect God to honour your desire when you have not honoured him in obeying his command.

 

Abundance begins with investment. God expects you to receive a harvest from your giving. Our giving is no longer a debt we owe, but a seed that we sow. The life and power source is from our heavenly Father. Ours is simply an act on the power potential in the seed life that we sow. Giving and receiving belong together.

 

Only when we give are we in a position to expect to reach out and receive a harvest.

 

CONFESSION/PRAYER

I am a cheerful, bonafide giver.

I give and I know that my Father will give back to me, pressed down, shaken together and running over.

I invest my time, talent and commitment into the house of God and I know God will reward me with sufficient time and resources to fulfill all of my requests and desires.

My seed has power to yield an abundant harvest.

As much as I am a giver, I am a receiver too.
