THE POWER OF A GIFT / PRESENT IN MAINTAINING RELATIONSHIPS
Psalm 24:1, 1 Chronicles 16:29, Proverbs 11:9
⭕️Genuine deliverance for those who are born-again comes through knowledge.
⭕️The present (offering) we bring before God is for maintaining a good relationship – a relationship that is not parasitic.
⭕️God doesn’t need presents from us; God has everything.
⭕️We don’t bring a present to a person because they have need of what we are bringing.
⭕️If someone is in need of what you’re giving them, it is a charitable donation.
⭕️Be careful that you don’t have the mentality that you’re giving charitable donations to God.

⭕️If you bring a present before God, it shows something about your mentality.
