(Use Your Resources for the Gospel)
TO THE BIBLE: Luke 8:1-3 NKJV
“Now it came to pass, afterward, that He went through every city and village, preaching and bringing the glad tidings of the kingdom of God. And the twelve were with Him, and certain women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities… provided for Him from their substance.”
LET’S TALK
Freda loved the Lord deeply but often felt she couldn’t do much because she wasn’t a preacher. One Sunday, she heard a message about women who supported Jesus with their finances.
Though she only earned a little from helping her mum at the store, she began consistently partnering with her church’s outreach projects.
She noticed how her small seeds kept opening doors: scholarships, unexpected gifts, and even the salvation of a cousin who came to a crusade she helped sponsor.
Certain women who had been delivered from evil spirits and infirmities, like Mary Magdalene and many others whose names weren’t mentioned, ministered to the Lord Jesus of their substance.
Their names might not all be written, but God remembers their acts of service, and one day, we will see the full list. These women travelled with Jesus and paid the bills for His evangelistic journeys.
They supported the mission financially. That’s partnership. I can relate to this; there are people who sponsor different aspects of our evangelical work.
They go above and beyond financially to ensure the success of our missionary work around the world. These are partners who fund the Gospel with their resources.
The key here is understanding the principle of giving in to God’s work. It’s a grace, the grace of giving (2 Corinthians 8:4-6), and you can choose to function in that grace.
When you focus on fulfilling God’s dream, you won’t need to struggle for anything. The Bible says, “…seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you” (Matthew 6:33).
Many think that success is about acquiring material possessions, but true success comes from doing God’s work and establishing His will in the earth. Everything the Lord has blessed you with is for the furtherance of the Gospel; always remember that.
So, like the women the Bible talks about in Luke 8, use your resources for the Gospel. It’s one of the ways to get yourself plugged into limitless and unending supply.
The Lord Himself guarantees your prosperity because He sees that you operate with a Kingdom mindset, walking in the light of His Word.
