Deuteronomy 15:10 Give generously to them and do so without a grudging heart; (The Lord has commanded us to give to the poor and to those in need and to give generously. Because they are a part of the family of man, they are part of our family for whom we provide. The Hebrew literally means give generously, but in a way that you don't become evil, that you don't give reluctantly or unwillingly. Giving in itself is not enough. Not only are we to give out of a duty to the Lord so as not to displease Him, but we are to give out of a heart of love. Also, as we give and as we give generously, implied in the charge is to give again and again if needed, being careful not to restrict our generosity.) then because of this the Lord your God will bless you in all your work and in everything you put your hand to. (Our giving does not go unrewarded. In the Lord's Own generous giving toward us, as He calls us to obey Him, He establishes benefits and blessings to us for doing what we should be doing in the first place. Here again, He promises blessings for our obedience. He promises a harvest, that we will reap what we sow, that our own prosperity, both in the more specific economic sense and in the larger sense of prosperity of the soul, will be increased and expanded and broadened across the spectrum of our lives.)
