Do Not Be Stingy!

Key Verse

“And whosoever shall give to drink unto one of these little ones a cup of cold water only in the name of a disciple, verily I say unto you, he shall in no wise lose his reward.” Matthew 10:42

Text — Matthew 10: 40-42

Message

The Bible which is the word of God says that “God loves a cheerful giver” (2 Corinthians 9:6). Many children are stingy and they do not like to share their possessions with others. Even when their parents give them money for offering, they spend it on snacks and refuse to put it in the offering bag! Such a bad attitude is noticed by God and it will attract His punishment. Whenever your parents give you money for offering, put it in the offering bag and do not spend it.

Children of God must not be stingy! You must help those who are in need if you can and God will surely bless you. Are you stingy? Do you hide your snacks behind your back when you see your friends coming? God does not bless stingy children therefore, you must stop being stingy today! What God expects from you is to cultivate the attitude of giving. There are many children around you who are suffering. You can give out the clothes, textbooks and writing materials you no longer use. This should be done with the permission of your parents. As you do all these, God will bless you in return.
