Morning Chapel Prayer Today
Sister Cindy…
He satisfies us with long life and peace because we look to Him.
I remember one time I said, “Lord, how can I satisfy you?”
I bless the Lord with all my soul, with all that is within me. I let this mind be in me. I let Him enrich me in His ways of doing, His ways and the intents of His heart, the motivations of His heart, the emotions that He is flowing through me, emoting, causing me to get into motion with the compassion of the Lord… Because Jesus was moved by compassion.
We want to be moved by compassion and DJ was moved to give Jill that $50 compassion and the motivation of God’s heart.
Because God is in the timeless realm. He sees from outside of time and He orchestrates time so that their times are fruitful.
And some people would say He’s never late, He’s never early, but He’s right on time. And we want to be lined up to God’s time. Because His timing is always blossoming and blooming and fruiting at once.
So this is the verse that I got right when we sat down. It’s 2nd Corinthians 9:9–11. “As it is written, the benevolent person scatters abroad.” It’s just like carefree. Ooh! You know. Not thinking too much about what, “How is this going to affect me, blah, blah, blah.” But it’s just a like, “God, you have given me so much. I’ve been forgiven so much, and your presence is with Me and I have your heart, I have your mind.”
It was Jesus who said He thought it not robbery to be equal with God. He wanted to share everything He had and He paid a price to do it. But He was moved with compassion for us.
But, yet, while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. “As it is written, he, the benevolent person, scatters abroad. He gives to the poor. His deeds of justice and goodness and kindness and benevolence will go on and endure forever.”
What we do in this life has dividends. Eternal reaping of what He calls us to do out of that compassionate place in our hearts, fueled by love, fueled by prayer.
It’s fired by His Holy Spirit and ignited into the glory of God.
And the God who provides seed for the sower and bread for the eater will also provide and multiply your resources for sowing and increase the fruits of your righteousness, which display themselves as active goodness, kindness, and charity… the God kind of love, the giving love.
I’d write this scripture on my offering envelope because it held so much power.
Not because I’m just saying, well, I want it all to come back to me.
But His heart of giving, that’s the fruit of my righteousness, which displays itself.
So He increases that fruit in my heart so that I become like Him, the benevolent one.
“Thus, you shall be enriched in all things in every way, so that you can be generous and your generosity as it is administered by us will bring forth fruit of thanksgiving.”
We are scattering abroad to different countries the benevolence of God to help people, to establish buildings so that they can congregate, so that they can know you, Father. We’re having a conference in August for all these 23 countries I think it is that are coming. And they’re going to sit under this apostolic ministry and be greatly enriched. It’s a multiplying of our seeds sown, a multiplying of the fruit of our righteousness, which displays itself as active goodness, kindness, and charity. The mind of Christ who thought it not robbery to be equal with God.
We’re all really comfortable here, kind of. But there’s a world that’s shaking and needing so much. For our hearts to be expanded with the love of God and the generosity that God places in us and that we would give and it would be multiplied unto us.
This Word is so amazing with the promises, the exceeding great and precious promises… that if we allow God to have His way through us, He will take the little that we do and He will multiply it back to us.
Malachi says we won’t have room enough to receive it. That means our hearts are so expanded with the generous, giving heart of God that we just go “Whew! We’re going to scatter more abroad.”
Because God is the multiplying God. What we add, He multiplies—pressed down, shaken together, running over. But He tempers it with His giving heart.
So we thank you, Father, that the riches of the world are for a purpose. And our heart is beating with your purpose.
So we have been forgiven of so great… we forgive and we flow in those unforced rhythms.
You are the breasty one.
You are El Shadi.
You are the one who is more than enough, the excessive, benevolent one.
You supply us with the seed.
You supply us with the motivation, the heart inclination, the compassion.
And we jump at every opportunity.
We take our cues from you.
We say “Let it be. Let it be.” Because you’re our keeper. You’re keeping us day and night.
Your eye is on us to increase us. Our eye is on you, that you would increase the fruit of our righteousness.
As we move with you, you increase us, and we’re changed from within.
We’re developed into the character of God, employing our faith and adding our divine things that you’ve given us already, Father.
What’s in our hands? Motivated through the character that you’ve developed in us through walking with you.
The benevolent one, He does increase.
We’re not the same people that we were last year. Dead things are falling off. Weak and beggarly elements don’t hold any sway because God is so much greater and every day He’s new and there’s new mercies every day.
The mercy of God, the love of God, the tender kindness of God, the compassion of God, the covenant keeping God that says, “I will never leave you or forsake you, and surely I’m with you until the end of the age.”
So what are you afraid of? Why are you thinking naturally in these ways when I’m instilling in you love and compassion that never fails.
Like DJ was saying, all these other things fall away. But if you don’t have love, it’s just winding down.
You’re a clanging symbol and making noise.
Well, where’s your fruit?
We want to bring glory to you, Father.
And even in those ways that perplexed us, God said to me, “Cindy, if you’re not willing to be perplexed, because our head will say that doesn’t make sense, that’s not fiscally responsibly. Or it’s not in my schedule, or I don’t have time, and there’s more important things on my agenda. Maybe in the kingdom of God as I see, but how do you see it, Lord?
Because He sees the things that we don’t see and the importance. He says that sometimes our breakthroughs come in a package that we wouldn’t naturally consider. But He’s highlighting it like a beacon in our hearts and He’s like “beep, beep, beep, beep, beep.” Like you’re getting closer, hotter, hotter, hotter. And then you give $50 to Jill. And He’s like, cha-ching! You did it. Thank you. Hallelujah.
