Growing Folks Giving | Bishop Keith W. Reed Sr. | Sermon Only

About this sermon

In this powerful and insightful sermon, Bishop Keith W. Reed Sr. teaches on the biblical principles of giving — not from guilt or obligation, but from gratitude and grace. Preaching from Malachi 3:8–10 and 2 Corinthians 8–9, Bishop Reed contrasts two types of giving: tithing under the law and grace giving under love. He reminds believers that while tithing was commanded in the Old Testament, Jesus calls His followers to give through relationship, not regulation. Grace giving is about devotion, not duty. It’s not measured by a percentage, but by the posture of your heart. When you understand that everything you have comes from God — your time, talent, and treasure — you’ll give joyfully, knowing that God loves a cheerful giver. Using real-life illustrations and relatable examples, Bishop Reed encourages every believer to grow beyond giving by habit to giving by heart. When we give freely and faithfully, God opens the windows of heaven and makes us conduits of His blessing. 💖 Key Message: You can’t beat God giving — no matter how hard you try. 📜 SCRIPTURE REFERENCES: Malachi 3:8–10 – “Will a man rob God? … Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse.” 2 Corinthians 8:1–9 – The Macedonian church gives joyfully despite trials. 2 Corinthians 9:6–8 – “God loves a cheerful giver.” Romans 8:32 – “He who did not spare His own Son… how shall He not also freely give us all things?” Matthew 23:23 – Jesus teaches on justice, mercy, and faithfulness in giving. 🔔 CALL TO ACTION: If this message blessed you, LIKE, SHARE, and SUBSCRIBE to our channel!
