How God Works
Ask God to help you see the ways He is at work in your life.

Read: Genesis 45:3-8

Transforming believers into reflections of Jesus can be a long process of small changes, which means God’s work may seem slow to us. For example, Abraham was assured he would be the father of nations (Genesis 15:1-5). Nonetheless, he had to wait decades for his son Isaac to be born. Even though God was at work the entire time, Abraham must have wondered if the pledge had been forgotten.

Believers like to share stories about the Lord’s dramatic intervention in their life. Knowing that He provides, rescues, or heals is both exciting and reassuring. But He also works in ways that may seem inconsequential. For example, Joseph was just a servant in Potiphar’s household—yet this was his first step toward becoming the country’s second-in-command (Genesis 39:1-4; Genesis 41:41). It’s a good reminder that God has a purpose for everything that comes into our life.

If you want to experience God in action, you don’t have to wait for Him to do something big. Be attentive, because every day is an opportunity to see Him at work. Get into His Word so you can understand how He has acted in the lives of others. Then watch for His involvement in your own.

Characteristics of a Generous Spirit
The choice to be generous has nothing to do with how much money we have.

Read: 2 Corinthians 8:1-15

When we hear of a need, it may be that our desire is to give but our bank account convinces us doing so is impossible. Though we know generosity should characterize believers, sometimes it seems the only way to be generous is to be wealthy.

The Christians in Macedonia prove this isn’t the case. Using them as a model of openhandedness, Paul motivated the Corinthians to follow through on their original commitment to support the church in Jerusalem. The example of the Macedonians in today’s passage helps us identify the characteristics of generosity:

A generous person is sensitive to the needs of others. The Macedonian believers’ own troubles didn’t prevent them from feeling compassion for the needs of others (v. 2).

A generous spirit sees needs as opportunities. The Macedonian Christians begged Paul to let them help support the saints in Jerusalem (v. 4).

Liberality flows from a life yielded to God. These believers first gave themselves to the Lord in obedience to His will (v. 5).

A generous spirit has nothing to do with how much money we have; rather, it has to do with how much the Lord has of us. When we are fully surrendered to Him, He provides the grace we need in order to share what we have—whether time, treasure, or talent.

Our Generous Provider
Because the Lord has richly provided for us, we should respond generously to the needs of others.

Read: Psalms 65:1-13

Have you ever considered how generous the Lord is toward us? He created the earth and all it contains. He made the sun to both give light and help living things to thrive, and He sends rain to water the land and quench our thirst.

God’s abundant provision for physical needs should cause us to stand in awe of His love and care for us, but His generosity doesn’t end there. He has also provided for all our spiritual needs through His Son. By means of Jesus’ death on the cross, we are reconciled to the Father and given a wealth of blessings: His Word supplies guidance, His Spirit empowers us and transforms us into Christ’s image, and His church offers encouragement and support. Yet His generosity goes even further than this.

The Lord has also given us the promise of an inheritance in heaven (1 Peter 1:4). All that He’s prepared for us is beyond our human understanding, but Revelation 21:1-27 and Revelation 22:1-21 describe the new heaven and earth as a place of abundance and blessing.

Since the Lord has so richly provided for us, our first response should be gratitude, followed by generosity toward others. Based on His example, let’s tend to more than physical needs. We can also help spiritually by encouraging fellow believers and proclaiming the gospel to people who don’t yet know Jesus.

God’s Call to Repentance
When we repent, God responds with compassion, forgiveness, and acceptance.

Read: Luke 15:11-24

In the Parable of the Prodigal Son, the younger brother asked for his inheritance early so he might live as he chose. Once the father gave it to him, the young man made many unwise choices. What happened next illustrates the principles of godly repentance.

After squandering all of his money, the wayward son found work feeding pigs. One day he came to his senses and recognized his terrible plight. His repentance began with an awareness of his wrong choices and the fact that his situation was due to them.

Knowing that his difficulties came from unrighteous behavior, the prodigal grieved over his mistakes and acknowledged his sin (Luke 15:18). He declared he was no longer worthy to be considered his father’s son. His repentance was made complete when he turned away from his old ways and returned to his father. The Lord likewise calls us to repent and return to Him.

What a welcome the wayward young man received! Upon seeing his son, the father was filled with compassion and ran to embrace him. Forgiveness and acceptance were extended—blessings that God also freely offers to whoever asks Him.

The prodigal son did not clean himself up before returning home. He simply left his old life, turned toward home, and trusted in his father’s mercy. And so can we.
