GIVING FINANCIALLY HELPS IN ADVANCING GOD'S WORK

Luke 8:1-3 [1]And it came to pass afterward, that he went throughout every city and village, preaching and shewing the glad tidings of the kingdom of God: and the twelve were with him,
[2]And certain women, which had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary called Magdalene, out of whom went seven devils,
[3]And Joanna the wife of Chuza Herod's steward, and Susanna, and many others, which ministered unto him of their substance.
By divine design, those who receive the blessings of the gospel of Jesus are mandated to give towards its spread. Every believer must be acquainted with this simple truth.
The funding of the gospel is our collective responsibility and not God’s. Of course it is God who makes the provisions available – but this is channeled through men. If we don’t have generous men in the church who are committed to giving for the work of the gospel, the message of Christ will not go far.
When God wanted His temple to be built in the wilderness He commanded Moses to instruct the children of Israel to bring the materials. It was the people who gave for the materials. God did not ask the world to bring the materials. We should not expect those outside the sphere of the church to come build the church for Christ.
The moment believers come to the understanding that funding the gospel is their responsibility, many will give freely. This is God’s golden standard: Those who receive the word should give to those who teach them.
God won’t come down from heaven to preach the gospel. He has committed the preaching of the gospel to us His children.
The gospel can only go as far as we let it. The name of Jesus can be heard in distant lands only by the church. Every believer must know this in truth.
We are the custodians of the gospel of Jesus Christ. And we are the ones Jesus mandated to preach His gospel. If we don’t preach it, it will not be preached. And it takes money to preach the gospel. Those involved in the preaching of the gospel in full time must be supported.
The church needs equipment and channels to preach the gospel. Television, radio, internet, books and taping are all means of preaching the gospel. And it takes a considerable amount of money to use this tools to propagate the gospel of Christ.
Free distribution of Bibles, books and tapes cost money. There are people giving millions of dollars to see these things made possible. God is counting on you to see the gospel go round the world.
