VERSES FOR OFFERINGS

VERSES FOR OFFERINGS

Think about giving – it's truly beautiful in God's eyes. When you're preparing your offering, remember it should be your best, given with a sincere heart. It should be a joyful act, knowing how much God has already blessed us with, even when we don't deserve it. He's been incredibly generous, hasn't He?

If you only give what's leftover, well, life might just mirror that back to you. Think about it – give as if you're giving to yourself. Don't do it out of obligation or because you expect something in return. True giving comes from the heart.

Don't make a big show of it either. It's not about getting praised or patted on the back. Let your giving be a quiet act between you and God. He sees what's in your heart, and He loves a cheerful giver. Remember what it says in 2 Corinthians 9:7: "Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver."

Giving is an act of worship, a way to give back a portion of what God has already given us. And when God gives, He gives abundantly. When you offer from the heart, you're opening the door for even more blessings. The more you give, the more you receive. It's a beautiful cycle.




Genesis 9:13-15

Genesis 12:1-3

NOW [in Haran] the Lord said to Abram, Go for yourself [for your own advantage] away from your country, from your relatives and your father's house, to the land that I will show you. [Heb. 11:8-10.]Now there was a famine in the land, and Abram went down into Egypt to live temporarily, for the famine in the land was oppressive (intense and grievous).And when he was about to enter into Egypt, he said to Sarai his wife, I know that you are beautiful to behold.So when the Egyptians see you, they will say, This is his wife; and they will kill me, but they will let you live.Say, I beg of you, that you are my sister, so that it may go well with me for your sake and my life will be spared because of you.And when Abram came into Egypt, the Egyptians saw that the woman was very beautiful.The princes of Pharaoh also saw her and commended her to Pharaoh, and she was taken into Pharaoh's house [harem].And he treated Abram well for her sake; he acquired sheep, oxen, he-donkeys, menservants, maidservants, she-donkeys, and camels.But the Lord scourged Pharaoh and his household with serious plagues because of Sarai, Abram's wife.And Pharaoh called Abram and said, What is this that you have done to me? Why did you not tell me that she was your wife?Why did you say, She is my sister, so that I took her to be my wife? Now then, here is your wife; take her and get away [from here]!And I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you [with abundant increase of favors] and make your name famous and distinguished, and you will be a blessing [dispensing good to others].And Pharaoh commanded his men concerning him, and they brought him on his way with his wife and all that he had.And I will bless those who bless you [who confer prosperity or happiness upon you] and curse him who curses or uses insolent language toward you; in you will all the families and kindred of the earth be blessed [and by you they will bless themselves].

Genesis 17:1-2

WHEN ABRAM was ninety-nine years old, the Lord appeared to him and said, I am the Almighty God; walk and live habitually before Me and be perfect (blameless, wholehearted, complete).This is My covenant, which you shall keep, between Me and you and your posterity after you: Every male among you shall be circumcised.And you shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin, and it shall be a token or sign of the covenant (the promise or pledge) between Me and you.He who is eight days old among you shall be circumcised, every male throughout your generations, whether born in [your] house or bought with [your] money from any foreigner not of your offspring.He that is born in your house and he that is bought with your money must be circumcised; and My covenant shall be in your flesh for an everlasting covenant.And the male who is not circumcised, that soul shall be cut off from his people; he has broken My covenant.And God said to Abraham, As for Sarai your wife, you shall not call her name Sarai; but Sarah [Princess] her name shall be.And I will bless her and give you a son also by her. Yes, I will bless her, and she shall be a mother of nations; kings of peoples shall come from her.Then Abraham fell on his face and laughed and said in his heart, Shall a child be born to a man who is a hundred years old? And shall Sarah, who is ninety years old, bear a son?And [he] said to God, Oh, that Ishmael might live before You!But God said, Sarah your wife shall bear you a son indeed, and you shall call his name Isaac [laughter]; and I will establish My covenant or solemn pledge with him for an everlasting covenant and with his posterity after him.And I will make My covenant (solemn pledge) between Me and you and will multiply you exceedingly.

And your Seed (Heir) will possess the gate of His enemies, [Heb. 6:13, 14; 11:12.]And in your Seed [Christ] shall all the nations of the earth be blessed and [by Him] bless themselves, because you have heard and obeyed My voice.

The Lord our God made a covenant with us in Horeb.Neither shall you witness falsely against your neighbor.Neither shall you covet your neighbor's wife, nor desire your neighbor's house, his field, his manservant or his maidservant, his ox or his donkey, or anything that is your neighbor's.These words the Lord spoke to all your assembly at the mountain out of the midst of the fire, the cloud, and the thick darkness, with a loud voice; and He spoke not again [added no more]. He wrote them on two tables of stone and gave them to me [Moses].And when you heard the voice out of the midst of the darkness, while the mountain was burning with fire, you came near me, all the heads of your tribes and your elders;And you said, Behold, the Lord our God has shown us His glory and His greatness, and we have heard His voice out of the midst of the fire; we have this day seen that God speaks with man and man still lives.Now therefore, why should we die? For this great fire will consume us; if we hear the voice of the Lord our God any longer, we shall die.For who is there of all flesh who has heard the voice of the living God speaking out of the midst of fire, as we have, and lived?Go near [Moses] and hear all that the Lord our God will say. And speak to us all that the Lord our God will speak to you; and we will hear and do it.And the Lord heard your words when you spoke to me and the Lord said to me, I have heard the words of this people which they have spoken to you. They have said well all that they have spoken.Oh, that they had such a [mind and] heart in them always [reverently] to fear Me and keep all My commandments, that it might go well with them and with their children forever!The Lord made this covenant not with our fathers, but with us, who are all of us here alive this day.

He [God] does not say, And to seeds (descendants, heirs), as if referring to many persons, but, And to your Seed (your Descendant, your Heir), obviously referring to one individual, Who is [none other than] Christ (the Messiah).

Romans 11:1-2

I ASK then: Has God totally rejected and disowned His people? Of course not! Why, I myself am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, a member of the tribe of Benjamin! [I Sam. 12:22; Jer. 31:37; 33:24-26; Phil. 3:5.]Let their eyes be darkened (dimmed) so that they cannot see, and make them bend their back [stooping beneath their burden] forever. [Ps. 69:23.]So I ask, Have they stumbled so as to fall [to their utter spiritual ruin, irretrievably]? By no means! But through their false step and transgression salvation [has come] to the Gentiles, so as to arouse Israel [to see and feel what they forfeited] and so to make them jealous.Now if their stumbling (their lapse, their transgression) has so enriched the world [at large], and if [Israel's] failure means such riches for the Gentiles, think what an enrichment and greater advantage will follow their full reinstatement!But now I am speaking to you who are Gentiles. Inasmuch then as I am an apostle to the Gentiles, I lay great stress on my ministry and magnify my office,In the hope of making my fellow Jews jealous [in order to stir them up to imitate, copy, and appropriate], and thus managing to save some of them.For if their rejection and exclusion from the benefits of salvation were [overruled] for the reconciliation of a world to God, what will their acceptance and admission mean? [It will be nothing short of] life from the dead!Now if the first handful of dough offered as the firstfruits [Abraham and the patriarchs] is consecrated (holy), so is the whole mass [the nation of Israel]; and if the root [Abraham] is consecrated (holy), so are the branches. [Num. 15:19-21.]But if some of the branches were broken off, while you, a wild olive shoot, were grafted in among them to share the richness [of the root and sap] of the olive tree,Do not boast over the branches and pride yourself at their expense. If you do boast and feel superior, remember it is not you that support the root, but the root [that supports] you.You will say then, Branches were broken (pruned) off so that I might be grafted in!No, God has not rejected and disowned His people [whose destiny] He had marked out and appointed and foreknown from the beginning. Do you not know what the Scripture says of Elijah, how he pleads with God against Israel? [Ps. 94:14; I Kings 19.]

THE BOOK of the ancestry (genealogy) of Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed), the son (descendant) of David, the son (descendant) of Abraham.

[Deut. 27:26.]Now it is evident that no person is justified (declared righteous and brought into right standing with God) through the Law, for the Scripture says, The man in right standing with God [the just, the righteous] shall live by and out of faith and he who through and by faith is declared righteous and in right standing with God shall live. [Hab. 2:4.]But the Law does not rest on faith [does not require faith, has nothing to do with faith], for it itself says, He who does them [the things prescribed by the Law] shall live by them [not by faith]. [Lev. 18:5.]Christ purchased our freedom [redeeming us] from the curse (doom) of the Law [and its condemnation] by [Himself] becoming a curse for us, for it is written [in the Scriptures], Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree (is crucified); [Deut. 21:23.]To the end that through [their receiving] Christ Jesus, the blessing [promised] to Abraham might come upon the Gentiles, so that we through faith might [all] receive [the realization of] the promise of the [Holy] Spirit.

Romans 5:1-2

THEREFORE, SINCE we are justified (acquitted, declared righteous, and given a right standing with God) through faith, let us [grasp the fact that we] have [the peace of reconciliation to hold and to enjoy] peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One).For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, it is much more [certain], now that we are reconciled, that we shall be saved (daily delivered from sin's dominion) through His [resurrection] life.Not only so, but we also rejoice and exultingly glory in God [in His love and perfection] through our Lord Jesus Christ, through Whom we have now received and enjoy [our] reconciliation. [Jer. 9:24.]Therefore, as sin came into the world through one man, and death as the result of sin, so death spread to all men, [no one being able to stop it or to escape its power] because all men sinned.[To be sure] sin was in the world before ever the Law was given, but sin is not charged to men's account where there is no law [to transgress].Yet death held sway from Adam to Moses [the Lawgiver], even over those who did not themselves transgress [a positive command] as Adam did. Adam was a type (prefigure) of the One Who was to come [in reverse, the former destructive, the Latter saving]. [Gen. 5:5; 7:22; Deut. 34:5.]But God's free gift is not at all to be compared to the trespass [His grace is out of all proportion to the fall of man]. For if many died through one man's falling away (his lapse, his offense), much more profusely did God's grace and the free gift [that comes] through the undeserved favor of the one Man Jesus Christ abound and overflow to and for [the benefit of] many.Nor is the free gift at all to be compared to the effect of that one [man's] sin. For the sentence [following the trespass] of one [man] brought condemnation, whereas the free gift [following] many transgressions brings justification (an act of righteousness).For if because of one man's trespass (lapse, offense) death reigned through that one, much more surely will those who receive [God's] overflowing grace (unmerited favor) and the free gift of righteousness [putting them into right standing with Himself] reign as kings in life through the one Man Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One).Well then, as one man's trespass [one man's false step and falling away led] to condemnation for all men, so one Man's act of righteousness [leads] to acquittal and right standing with God and life for all men.For just as by one man's disobedience (failing to hear, heedlessness, and carelessness) the many were constituted sinners, so by one Man's obedience the many will be constituted righteous (made acceptable to God, brought into right standing with Him).Through Him also we have [our] access (entrance, introduction) by faith into this grace (state of God's favor) in which we [firmly and safely] stand. And let us rejoice and exult in our hope of experiencing and enjoying the glory of God.

Psalm 104:1-5

BLESS (AFFECTIONATELY, gratefully praise) the Lord, O my soul! O Lord my God, You are very great! You are clothed with honor and majesty–He sends forth springs into the valleys; their waters run among the mountains.They give drink to every [wild] beast of the field; the wild asses quench their thirst there.Beside them the birds of the heavens have their nests; they sing among the branches. [Matt. 13:32.]He waters the mountains from His upper rooms; the earth is satisfied and abounds with the fruit of His works.He causes vegetation to grow for the cattle, and all that the earth produces for man to cultivate, that he may bring forth food out of the earth–And wine that gladdens the heart of man, to make his face shine more than oil, and bread to support, refresh, and strengthen man's heart.The trees of the Lord are watered abundantly and are filled with sap, the cedars of Lebanon which He has planted,Where the birds make their nests; as for the stork, the fir trees are her house.The high mountains are for the wild goats; the rocks are a refuge for the conies and badgers.[The Lord] appointed the moon for the seasons; the sun knows [the exact time of] its setting.[You are the One] Who covers Yourself with light as with a garment, Who stretches out the heavens like a curtain or a tent,You [O Lord] make darkness and it becomes night, in which creeps forth every wild beast of the forest.The young lions roar after their prey and seek their food from God.When the sun arises, they withdraw themselves and lie down in their dens.Man goes forth to his work and remains at his task until evening.O Lord, how many and varied are Your works! In wisdom have You made them all; the earth is full of Your riches and Your creatures.Yonder is the sea, great and wide, in which are swarms of innumerable creeping things, creatures both small and great.There go the ships of the sea, and Leviathan (the sea monster), which You have formed to sport in it.These all wait and are dependent upon You, that You may give them their food in due season.When You give it to them, they gather it up; You open Your hand, and they are filled with good things.When You hide Your face, they are troubled and dismayed; when You take away their breath, they die and return to their dust.Who lays the beams of the upper room of His abode in the waters [above the firmament], Who makes the clouds His chariot, Who walks on the wings of the wind,When You send forth Your Spirit and give them breath, they are created, and You replenish the face of the ground.May the glory of the Lord endure forever; may the Lord rejoice in His works–Who looks on the earth, and it quakes and trembles, Who touches the mountains, and they smoke!I will sing to the Lord as long as I live; I will sing praise to my God while I have any being.May my meditation be sweet to Him; as for me, I will rejoice in the Lord.Let sinners be consumed from the earth, and let the wicked be no more. Bless (affectionately, gratefully praise) the Lord, O my soul! Praise the Lord! (Hallelujah!)Who makes winds His messengers, flames of fire His ministers. [Heb. 1:7.]You laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be moved forever. [Job 38:4, 6.]

But the fruit of the [Holy] Spirit [the work which His presence within accomplishes] is love, joy (gladness), peace, patience (an even temper, forbearance), kindness, goodness (benevolence), faithfulness,Gentleness (meekness, humility), self-control (self-restraint, continence). Against such things there is no law [that can bring a charge].

Prayer

Lord, You are the Alpha and the Omega! Father, creator of heaven and earth, You are the first and the last, the beginning and the end. In Jesus' name, I come before You with joy and gladness to thank You for Your faithfulness and provision. Your word says, "It is more blessed to give than to receive." Lord Jesus, help me to be compassionate, to be sensitive to the needs of my brothers and sisters in faith and to my neighbor. Help me to be a reflection of Your love, for that pleases Your heart and is a sweet offering in Your presence. I offer my heart to worship and honor You with my possessions, with the work of my hands, for from what I have received from You, I give back to You. Today, I renounce selfishness, self-centeredness, indifference, and stinginess. I give You my best because You gave Your best out of love for us. Receive my offering, and may it rise as a sweet aroma to Your presence. Your word says, "Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously." Lord, may I, in the same way, be a channel of blessing and sow into the lives of others. Grant me, Lord, a generous and giving heart so that my life may be a pleasing offering to You. I firmly believe that my reward comes from the kingdom of heaven and that everything I give to those in need is as if I give it to You, my Lord. In Jesus' name, Amen.
