2 CORINTHIANS 9
GOD LOVES A CHEERFUL GIVER
Continuing his encouragement of giving, Paul instructs the Corinthians to prepare their generosity in advance. Titus will soon visit the church in Corinth to collect money for the believers in Jerusalem and he urges them to be prepared. Paul knows the benefits of giving, saying that whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly and whoever sows bountifully will also reap bountifully.
Paul instructs the believers to give according to what they have decided in their hearts, not out of compulsion or obligation. God loves a cheerful giver and wants the followers of Jesus to find joy in willingly being generous.
God provides believers with hearts of grace, allowing them to abound in good works. God will increase the harvest of righteousness, bringing glory and thanksgiving to God. Not only do good works help others in need; they honor the God who created them.
