Cassandra Mack’s Soul Fast 40-Day Challenge
Day 28
Fasting From Negative Choices
Today’s Fast: Today We Are Fasting from the choice to… Be Stingy
Stinginess is the opposite
of generosity. While a generous
person gives freely- and finds joy in paying it forward, a stingy person
withholds and like a parasite is more concerned with taking rather than giving
reciprocally. Though stinginess is most commonly associated with money, a
person may be stingy in other things like a person who always wants your
emotional support but never supports you when you need support.
Stinginess is such an undesirable
quality that this is what the Bible has to say about it……..
Proverbs
23: 6 – 8
warns us …”Do not eat the bread of a man
who is stingy; do not desire his delicacies, for he is like one who
is inwardly calculating. Eat and drink!” he says to you, but
his heart is not with you. You will vomit up the morsels that you have
eaten, and waste your pleasant words.”
Stingy people never give from their
hearts. They always give begrudgingly or with an ulterior motive. This is why
you have to be mindful about accepting things from stingy people. If you notice
stinginess within yourself make the choice to change your heart and choose
generosity over stinginess.
Today Is A New Day
It’s new because the sun has risen this morning.
It’s new because you have arisen to meet it.
And the risen version of you has
the power and capacity to rise to the occasion and handle your business for
today.
Remind Yourself:
…“ Every man shall give as he is able,
according to the blessing of the LORD your God which He has given you.” (Deuteronomy 16: 17)
PRAYER: You can pray the
scripture from today’s message or you can pray about anything that’s on your
heart.
