It can be a wrong gift! God deserves our best as gift and giving self to God for His glory is a worthy gift. Think of it, can a door be opened with a finger? When a man is giving gift to God with one finger instead of a whole hand (whole heart) the chances to an open door is limited. Giving gift to God with a finger is like giving without the whole heart. God is the giver of all and He alone can take all away. It is more than worthy to always give back to God with all heart. Man must understand and know to always give to God in His name and not in any man\u2019s name.\u00a0 Are you giving back to God by mouth or giving to Him by Heart? Answer to the question will no doubt determine believer\u2019s journey on earth. Abraham\u2019s gave to God with his whole heart which is the evidence of his love for God.<br \/>\nGod called Abraham to deliver a sacrificial offering, <strong><em>\u201cNow it came to pass after these things that God tested Abraham, and said to him, \u201cAbraham!\u201d And he said, \u201cHere I am.\u201d Then He said, \u201cTake now your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you.\u201d (Genesis 22:1-2)<\/em><\/strong> Without hesitation, Abraham delivered his offering to God. Abraham\u2019s obedience allowed Abraham to have an open door of communication from above.<br \/>\nOffering delivered gift without hesitation is the evidence of cheerful giving to God.<br \/>\nIn all your giving, give back to God cheerfully.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Prayer for today:<\/strong> <em>Ask God for the grace of giving cheerfully in all of your giving.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FAITH CAPSULE: what are you giving back to God?
