Exodus 25:2, Tell the Israelites to bring me an offering. You are to receive the offering for me from everyone whose heart prompts them to give.

Take not giving for granted especially when it comes things of the Lord, the propagation of his ministry and things that are to his Glory and exaltation of his name.

But it is important that even as we give we give out of our own volition and not through coercion or psychological manipulation or any other ways which may not be directly from the givers own initiative, thoughts or mind.

This is critical because when we fail to do so I’m accordance with our absolute willingness we do not get to receive the blessings that comes with giving. It is equally important to God that we give willing which is why in our verse today it was emphatically stated.

God is a powerful being and has our hearts mind and soul in hands hands and can turn and control us accordingly however he sees fit but he never does this, he has given us our own will to do anything we would set our minds to do, even worshipping him is not compulsory.

And so please do not be coerced in anyway neither should you allow yourself to be misled for even if u how hugely and it’s not from your own volition you miss out a the blessing that may have been yours

May the Grace of the almighty God lead and guide us in our daily lives as activities that may learn to not be manipulated but to give willingly and from our hearts that we may also be able to receive the Blessings due us. Thanks for your time and have a wonderful week.
