“You will be enriched in every way so that you can be generous on every occasion, and through us your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God.” (2 Cor. 9-11 NIV)

It will result in thanksgiving to God!

God will “enrich you in every way!” Wow, think of that promise! That is huge! But, notice that the reason for enrichment is explained clearly. It is NOT to make you greedy! It is to enable you to be generous on every occasion resulting in thanksgiving to God!

Develop an attitude of gratitude!

It’s about your attitude. And it’s about understanding that blessings from God are intended to help you serve the Lord’s people which will cause them to then overflow with many expressions of thanks to God! That’s what the next verse in the promise above says clearly:

“This service that you perform is not only supplying the needs of the Lord’s people but is also overflowing in many expressions of thanks to God” (2 Cor. 9:12 NIV). It’s a lot to praise God for?
