We have learned from the Apostle Paul's visit to Miletus to confer with the Elders of Ephesus who came 40 miles to be with him about the joy of giving. Paul was in a hurry to get to Jerusalem for Pentecost. He was taking a special offering he had been collecting from other Christian believers for the poor saints in the Jerusalem Church.
As we think of going to church on this Pentecost Sunday 2020, let us ask God what gift would He desire us to give in a special offering to the church above the tithes? Is that something you might like to consider? Will you obey God if He tells you what to give?
May I encourage you to think about it. Selah!
I personally have prepared to give a special offering today.
Jesus said, "It is more blessed to give than to receive" (Acts 20:35).
The word "blessed" means more fruitful and more profitable.
Obey God today. You will be glad you did.
