Excel In Giving

February 19, 2019 • Jim Johnston

Giving is a challenge of spiritual magnitude. It ties to the fabric of our physical being whilst determining the destination of our spiritual outcome. This is often because giving is contrary to human nature. It is the hurdle over which many believers fail to clear and in in doing so fail to experience the full extent of what God has for us. God gave us His most precious thing through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, that we may receive His best and in turn return to God our best.

Excel In Love

Love is more than an emotion, it’s a command. If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing. (1 Corinthians 13:1-2)

The Collins dictionary says earnestness is to be ‘serious and sincere, often excessively so.’ An attitude characterised by seriousness and commitment. The Christian walk is not a sprint but a marathon. In order to complete the race we need to avoid distraction.

Excel In Speech

When we become new in Christ, we have a new way of thinking. We align ourselves with the word of God and allow it to renew a right spirit within us. Instead of letting our flesh win we take on the new man. Men sometimes speak idle or empty words, but God never does. Every word He has ever spoken has been filled with faith, power and life.

Excel In Knowledge

Knowing the Bible and being able to parrot it out is not knowledge. Knowledge in the Bible denotes an understanding, a recognition or an acknowledgment. Knowledge is the deeper appreciation of something or a relationship with someone. We know from Scripture that knowledge is a gift from God.

Real faith will be seen by others, our bodies are involved! Paul wanted the Corinthians to demonstrate their faith and make good on their promise to provide famine relief. Despite their problems Paul commended the Corinthians in several areas of their lives encouraging them to be generous like the churches in Macedonia.
