God will never give you more until you give from what you already have. A preacher came to see a farmer and asked him, “If you had Kshs. 200, would you give Kshs. 100 of it to the Lord?” The farmer proudly said, “I would.” The preacher went on, “If you had two cows, would you give one of them to the Lord?” “Sure,” the farmer answered. “If you had two pigs, would you give one of them to the Lord.” The farmer said, “Preacher, now that is not fair. You know I have two pigs.” It take no faith to wait to give when you have extra. That is like saying... ...When the harvest comes in I will plant the seed. ...When the building is completed I will buy the land. Giving is on the front end. It is an act of faith of your part, as well as an act of obedience. It shows how weak your faith is when you are reluctant to give.
