Daily Prayer for May 9th, 2019         

Good morning, God—thank You for this Thursday! 🙂

I know that You love a cheerful giver, as when I give, gladly, You send blessings right back to me. Thank You, Father! Holy Spirit, help me to always be a giver, either with a smile, a hug, a compliment, encouragement, contributions, or a helping hand. In Jesus name. Amen.

Luke 6:38 English Standard Version (ESV)

38 give, and it will be given to you. Good measure pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you.”

2 Corinthians 9:6-7 English Standard Version (ESV)

The Cheerful Giver

The point is this: whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows bountifully will also reap bountifully. Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.

James 1:17 English Standard Version (ESV)

17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change.

Matthew 6:19-21 English Standard Version (ESV)

Lay Up Treasures in Heaven

19 “Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal, 20 but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
