Instructions

These are short devotional thoughts to accompany a daily Bible reading. The readings are arranged for a chronological reading of the scriptures. I am reading the Today's New International Version. However, it should work with any version. It is my prayer that it will encourage reading of God's word, and inculcating the teachings into daily living. May His richest blessings be with you!

February 22


 
Leviticus 26-27
There is a principal found in today's reading that weaves itself through the entire Bible. Our blessings from God, or lack thereof, have a direct correlation to what we offer, or refuse to offer, Him. Even though our motive in giving should never be with thought of what we will gain in return, God does increase our blessings when we give liberally. He examines our heart to determine the purity of our gift, and corresponds in kind. Perhaps when we find ourselves on the short end of the stick, it may be that we have been short in our offerings to the Lord!
