"Stingy Purse Strings"
"And he said, this will I do: I will pull down my barns, and build greater; and there will I bestow all my fruits and my goods. And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry."
To whom much is given, much is required!!
Here we have a "self-made man." Look at what he says, "MY soul did all this; I got this big bank account." He's boasting in his own ability. God's response to that is, "It's yours? Let's see if you're going to leave with this stuff; you came here with nothing and you're going to leave with nothing."
Unfortunately, the more God blesses some people, the stingier they get. Don't let that be you. A lot of times the biggest givers in the church are the poorest people. They give a higher percentage of what they have. When they give, they feel it and it's a sacrifice. You see, the rich guy just writes some amount and thinks he can just give God a tip. But understand this, unto whom much is given, much is required. The rich man should feel his giving too, just like the man that is not rich.
When God blesses you with more money, you have to be willing to step up to the next level. If you are diligent in ministering to the Lord with your substance, God will bless you with more and more.
