The Best Things In Life | Wednesday
Wednesday | June 10
Focus of the Week:
Tithing is a discipline, but generosity is a mindset. God isn’t just teaching us how to give, He’s transforming how we think. As we shift from a scarcity mindset to an abundance mindset, we begin to trust that God is not only enough, but more than enough. This is where generosity becomes a natural overflow, not an obligation.

Scripture
Scripture Helps Us Hear God And Live His Truth.
10For God is the one who provides seed for the farmer and then bread to eat. In the same way, he will provide and increase your resources and then produce a great harvest of generosity in you. 11Yes, you will be enriched in every way so that you can always be generous. And when we take your gifts to those who need them, they will thank God.
2 Corinthians 9:10–11 (NLT)
2 Corinthians 9:10–11 (NLT)
God Multiplies What We Release
Everything you have started with God.
He is the provider of the seed.
He is the source of the supply.
He is the one who sustains it all.
And Paul reminds us of something powerful:
God doesn’t just give to meet your needs.
He gives so that generosity can flow through your life.
“He will provide and increase your resources… and produce a great harvest of generosity in you.”
Notice the order.
But if we hold tightly to what He’s given, we interrupt that flow.
Because what we cling to stays limited.
But what we release becomes multiplied.
This is where trust becomes real.
It’s easy to say God is our provider.
It’s harder to live like it when we’re asked to let go of something.
But generosity is the evidence of trust.
It says:
God, I believe You are my source.
God, I trust You to provide again.
God, I know this isn’t all there is.
And the result?
“You will be enriched in every way so that you can always be generous.”
Not just financially.
Spiritually.
Emotionally.
Relationally.
A generous life is a full life.
So today, don’t just ask, “What do I have?”
Ask, “What has God given me to release?”
Because what you release in faith, God can multiply with purpose.
He is the provider of the seed.
He is the source of the supply.
He is the one who sustains it all.

Notice the order.
- God provides.
- We release.
- God multiplies.

Reflection
Reflection Helps Us Pause, Listen, And Let God Speak To Our Hearts.
- What am I currently holding onto tightly that God may be asking me to release?
- Do I truly see God as my source, or do I rely more on what I can control?
- How have I seen God provide for me in the past?
Journaling Prompts
This Is A Safe Place To Be Honest With God
- Write about a time when God provided for you unexpectedly.
- Ask God what “seed” He has placed in your life to give.
- Describe what trusting God with your resources looks like right now.
