Giving brings God great pleasure. And He desires for the abundance that He gives without measure to overflow from His children into the lives of others. When Jesus fed the 5,000, there was great abundance, even after the need was met. (John 6:13). This is the kind of prosperity God desires for His people. The believer should never be satisfied with living hand to mouth as if God never intended or desired to prosper them. Abundance cannot be given from a meager existence. Rather, the life that overflows with the blessings of God can give as it has received.
