Why you should give to the Ministers of the Gospel..

in #steemchurch5 years ago

Every third Sunday of the month in my local church, we set it aside to observe what we call, "I Care for my Pastor." It is usually a moment to give whatever we have to our pastor and in return, we get blessings.

The ministers of the gospel are those God has chosen and called to preach His words so as to bring about salvation, peace, blessings, wealth and every other good thing to mankind.

Gospel ministers are sll God's workers. This then means that God includes them in His payroll and God does not owe.

Why then do we need to give to them?

Yes, it is necessary that we offer gifts to these men and women. We give to them not because they lack food to eat or clothes to wear. We give to the ministers of the gospel not because they are poor.

But we give that we might receive blessings in return. No one sows into the life of any minister and goes back without being blessed by God.

Giving brings blessing and abundance. It is also a good way to obtain favour from God. Any time you give a man of God cheerfully, you are certain to receive the prophet's reward.

Learn to give to your pastors and God's blessings will be yours.

Happy Sunday!

Nice one bro 👊
Giving attracts blessings, it's not just about giving but rather doing so with a good heart and not by compulsion.

Remember, blessed is the man that gives than the one that takes.
Thanks for reminding me about this 😊

Wow, pleased to see you here.

(1 Corinthians 9:13-14 NIV) Don't you know that those who work in the temple get their food from the temple, and those who serve at the altar share in what is offered on the altar? {14} In the same way, the Lord has commanded that those who preach the gospel should receive their living from the gospel.

I can't agree less
