BE EXCITED TO GIVE
(It is the Secret to Receiving) 

📖TO THE BIBLE  
Luke 6:38
“Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be put into your bosom. For with the same measure that you use, it will be measured back to you.

▶️LET’S TALK
In many places, people get excited when they hear the messages on receiving: how to receive increased money, how to receive increased blessings, how to “possess their possessions” and so on. But once you start teaching them that the secret to receiving is giving, the place gets quiet, and you can hear a pin drop! But you see, there’s a greater blessing for the giver than the receiver; the blessing lies in your giving. Jesus said, “It is more blessed to give than to receive” (Acts 20:35). There’s a promise on giving; but none on receiving.   
Always be excited about giving. Be motivated to give all the time, for whatever you give shall be multiplied back to you. Now the Lord Jesus didn’t say, “Give money, and money shall be given back unto you.” No, He said “Give!” That means absolutely anything: time, prayers, anything! Whatever good thing you desire in your life, sow the seed of it into the lives of others and it will be multiplied in your own life (Matthew 7:12). 

The blessing is for the giver, therefore make up your mind to keep giving, and always outgive your past. A giver is an automatic receiver because the more you give the more you receive. Never become tired of giving, and when you give don’t complain. Instead, be the one the Bible describes in 2 Corinthians 9:7 (AMPC)—a cheerful, joyous, “prompt to do it” giver whose heart is in his giving. The measure with which you give, is the measure with which you’ll receive. Therefore always give lavishly and bountifully, for that’s the secret to receiving and living in the overflow of God’s blessings.

▶️ GO DEEPER:
Galatians 6:7; 2 Corinthians 9:6-7 AMPC 

🗣 PRAYER 
Dear Father, I thank you for teaching me today the importance of being a cheerful, joyous, “prompt to do it” giver; I declare that I’m mightily blessed today as I give bountifully and lavishly, knowing that it’s  more blessed to give than to receive, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL

SATURDAY, DECEMBER 6TH 2025 LET THE GOSPEL BE YOUR PASSION For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth... (Romans 1:16). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME Dsc. Dsc. DD. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is the power of God to save, heal, deliver and transform lives. That’s why it must be a message you understand, live by, and burn with passion to share with others especially as the coming of the Lord draws nearer than we’ve ever known. Paul the Apostle declared that he was not ashamed of the Gospel. That statement came from a place of deep conviction and unwavering commitment. For him, preaching the Gospel wasn’t optional but life itself. He lived for the Gospel and was willing to die for its advancement. Read His inspiring and heart-stirring words in Acts 20:22-27, “And now, behold, I go bound in the spirit unto Jerusalem, not knowing the things that shall befall me there: Save that the Holy Ghost witnesseth in every city, saying ...

  SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 16TH 2025 THE KINGDOM, THE FIELD, AND THE SEED Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field (Matthew 13:24). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME Dsc. Dsc. DD. The Lord Jesus, in His remarkable teachings about the Kingdom, used parables to unveil profound truths. One of such examples is the parable of the wheat and tares in Matthew 13. He said, "...the kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field" (Matthew 13:24). That "man" is the Lord Himself, while the "good seed" represents the children of the Kingdom. The "field," as He later explained, is the world. This is extraordinary. The Lord sowed good seed, not in someone else's field, but in His own field. That tells you the world is His field and part of His Kingdom. It belongs to Him. No matter what we see in the world today, no matter how polluted it appears, the field still b...
