Jesus was known to tell others that it is better for His followers to be the givers more so than being the receivers. The Son of God lived a life of intentional release - He gave away all that He had to offer until there was literally nothing else for Him to give. Because His Spirit lives within all of those who commit themselves to Him, we are also given the nature of living as generous givers. We intentionally release our time, our efforts, our skills, our abilities and our money into the Kingdom. The Apostle Paul once wrote a group of believers to exhort them to faithfully accomplish that which they intended previously to do, namely, giving financially to the Kingdom opportunity in front of them. From Paul's words to them, we can gain much wisdom and instruction about what it looks like for us to live today with a spirit of intentional release. It is only in this life that we have the opportunity to sacrifice towards the advance of the Kingdom and store up eternal rewards for ourselves in the age to come. Here is how we can make the most of that opportunity.
