WORD OF HOPE FOR TODAY BY by Bro. Rolly Custodio
ATTITUDES OF THOSE WHO GET AND THOSE WHO GIVE
“It is more blessed to give than to receive.” Acts 20:35 NKJV
Today’s Insight
Are you a taker or a giver? If you’re not sure how to answer that question, think about certain TV personalities. Even though they have genuine talent their main motivations are ratings, image, approval, and profits. Check their background. Chances are that the little girl who dressed up like Cinderella and said, “Look at me,” now lives and performs for the approval of the crowd. Or the little boy who shouted, “I’m Tarzan,” now goes around with a sense of entitlement. John writes about a man in the church called Diotrephes, “who loves to have the preeminence” (3Jn v. 9 NKJV).
Leadership coach Dan Reiland observes: “If communicators teach out of need, insecurity, ego, or even responsibility, they’re not giving. The needy person wants praise, something the audience must give. The insecure person wants approval and acceptance, something the audience must give. The egotistical person wants to be lifted up, to be superior and just a little bit better than everyone else, something the audience must give. Even the person motivated by responsibility wants to be recognized as the faithful worker, to be seen as responsible—something the audience must bestow upon them. Many communicators teach in one of these modes all the time and aren’t aware of it.
Application
Then there’s the giver. This person teaches out of love, grace, gratitude, compassion, passion, and the overflow. These are all giving modes. In each of these modes of the heart the audience doesn’t have to give anything—only receive. The teaching then becomes a gift. It fills and renews.” Today, ask God to help you become a giver and not a taker.
Today’s Prayer
Heavenly Father, Thank you for your Word Today. Lord thank you for you are our great model who gives His Son first while we were sinners. Father thank you for without giving your son we have no salvation. Lord we believe that giving produces miracle and become rich. While holding our richest produces selfishness in our lives and we become poor. Lord anoints our life to be a give and not a taker for your glory In Jesus’ Name. Amen!
Prayer for Salvation
Lord I admit I am a sinner I repent of all my sins and I receive you into my heart as my personal Lord and Savior Amen. If you mean that prayer above from the bottom of your heart you are now saved. It is God’s Word promise in John 3:16 that if you trust His Son Jesus you will not die but you will have Eternal Life. Welcome to the family of God.
