Which Comes First? Recieving or Giving

LFTK Header

Dear Child,

I am the great Giver. It is who I am and what I do. I am all-sufficient. I have everything to give. I have what you need. You must become a receiver. You were created to be a taker. When you were born, your spirit was destitute. Regardless of the affluence of your birth family, you were in absolute poverty in your spirit. You needed life, not physical life on earth but spiritual life that lasts forever. Just as the earth needs the sun to have life, you need Me to have life.

I call out, "Come to me, all, and I will give to you." I want to give eternal life, and when you have it, you will never perish. No one can snatch you from Me; neither can anyone ever take eternal life from you once you have received it. You see, I give, and you must first receive from Me in order to be a giver in life. When you ask in faith, with no doubting, I will give to you liberally. It is never wrong for you to ask Me for anything you lack. I want you to receive all that I have to give to you. As the sun continually pours out its light at all times, I am always giving.

I gave My only Son to bring light into the world. I did not send Jesus to condemn the world, but so that everyone in the world might be saved through Him. After you believe in and receive Jesus, you will be drawn into the light. You will be glad to have your deeds, done in Me, a clear testimony of what I haven given You. By being a receiver, you can give Me great glory. As you receive from Me, you will blossom and bloom just as the earth does under the sun.

It was My desire to send Jesus to do My will. What I say may sound confusing to you, but Jesus came down from heaven to give life to everyone who believes in Him. I give you to Jesus who will raise you up in the last day. This is My will that everyone who sees Jesus and believes in Him may have everlasting life. You are not able to see Jesus with your physical eyes. The Holy Spirit through grace allows you to see Jesus in your spirit, to know Him. Jesus gave himself for the life of the world. He freely gives you all things.

Trust Me, commit your ways to Me, rest in Me. I want you to delight yourself in Me, and I will give you the desires of your heart. Yes, I will always give you what is good. Come to me and by receiving, you too will become a giver like Me. By being a receiver, you can announce to everyone how great and glorious I am.

Go ahead, Ask Me. Take, receive, and then give.
