Why ask for your daily bread when you own the bakery?
Randy Alcorn
Image
A disciple does not ask, How much can I keep? but, How much more can I give? Whenever we start to get comfortable with our level of giving, it's time to raise it again.

Image
When my thirst for joy is satisfied by Christ, sin becomes unattractive.
Randy Alcorn
Image
Sin and death and suffering and war and poverty are not natural—they are the devastating results of our rebellion against God. We long for a return to Paradise—a perfect world, without the corruption of sin, where God walks with us and talks with us in the cool of the day.

Give. Giving affirms Christ's lordship. It dethrones me and exalts Him. It breaks the chains of mammon that would enslave me and transfers my center of gravity to Heaven.
Randy Alcorn
Image
It's dangerous faith in our untamed Savior that leads us to the joy we crave.
Randy Alcorn
Image
Give regularly. Stewardship is not a once-a-year consideration, but a week-to-week, month-to-month commitment requiring discipline and consistency.
Randy Alcorn
Image
Give cheerfully. If we're not cheerful, the problem is our heart, and the solution is redirecting our heart, not withholding our giving.

Image
In the midst of prosperity, the challenge for believers is to handle wealth in such a way that it acts as a blessing, not a curse.

Image
You can't take it with you - but you can send it on ahead.
Randy Alcorn
Image
The repentant man rightfully loses trust in himself. He recognizes his self-dependence as the source of his problems, not the solution.
Randy Alcorn
Image
God prospers me not to raise my standard of living, but to raise my standard of giving.
Randy Alcorn
Image
Earth is a in-between world touched by both Heaven and Hell. Earth leads directly into Heaven or directly into Hell, affording a choice between the two. The best of life on Earth is a glimpse of Heaven the worst of life is a glimpse of Hell.
Randy Alcorn
Image
Not only will we see His face and live, but we will likely wonder if we ever lived before we saw His face!
Randy Alcorn
Image
To procrastinate obedience is to disobey God.
Randy Alcorn
Image
Give voluntarily. When we catch a vision of God's grace, we will give beyond our duty.
Randy Alcorn
Image
Whenever we have excess, giving should be our natural response. It should be the automatic decision, the obvious thing to do in light of Scripture and human need.
Randy Alcorn
Image
Give more as you make more. Remember: God prospers us not to raise our standard of living, but to raise our standard of giving.

When you leave this world, will you be known as one who accumulated treasures on earth that you couldn't keep? Or will you be recognized as one who invested treasures in heaven that you couldn't lose?
