THE POWER OF VALUE

"5 Those who sow with tears will reap with rejoicing. 6 The one who carries the precious seed will walk and cry; But he will come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves. "Psalm 126: 5-6

The process of sowing and harvesting is not always one of joy and joy. At the beginning, it can be one of the hardest moments, having to decide to give the best with the hope of a great reward. There is power in your precious seed. When you move in faith and apply these supernatural principles of the Word of the Lord, you experience the innumerable benefits that He promises you in His Word.

The Word of God has the power to transform every area of ​​your life, including the economic area.

Spiritual principles can really make a difference in your life. It is one thing to do things with ignorance and that the principle works, but maximizing your results depends on the knowledge you have. If you have a good field, and little experience, you can sow a seed and have results, because the principle works; If you sow and water, you will have results. But that same ground can be used by someone with more experience, and use their knowledge to make the necessary changes so that the seed yields a hundred percent, maximizing its potential so that the results are greater. Perhaps you have sown your seed of faith, you have offered, but you have not had all the results you expected. The principle works, but when you do it with knowledge and revelation, then you maximize your results.

"41 While Jesus was sitting before the ark of the offering, he watched the people throw money into the ark; and many rich people threw a lot. 42 And a poor widow came and threw two white ones, that is, a quadrant. 43 Then he called his disciples and said to them, "Assuredly, I say to you, this poor widow has cast more than all those who have thrown into the ark; 44 for all have thrown away what is left over; but this, out of her poverty, she poured out all that she had, all her sustenance. "Mark 12: 41-44

There is no one who has caught the attention of Christ, who has not received a miracle. We are not told what happened later in this woman's life, but something God must have done for her; God must have moved in his favor. In this story, we can see the importance of giving true value to things, and above all, the importance of giving God that which has value and meaning for your life.

The value system is subjective; What is valuable to you, not necessarily to another. Jesus was teaching the power of courage and how he values ​​things. The cost is one thing, the price is something else, and the value that is given to something is another level; The first two are mostly objective, while the last is subjective. If you build a car, you know how much it cost you, there is no subjectivity. We can put a price on it, which would be above cost, and it could be variable, it could change because it has not been sold, for example, but it is objective. But the value is something different; That same car can have a different value, at different times. It can be given a certain added value because someone famous has used it, for example. If we do not understand this principle, we do not give due value to the things of God. The value of that car is sentimental for those who value the famous person who used it. The value in this case would be greater than its price.

God moves by those things that are valuable; And the value is something emotional, internal, personal; What is valuable to one, not necessarily to another. And what catches God's attention is when you are able to give Him that which has value and meaning for your life. In this story that is narrated in Mark, Jesus observes a group of people taking offerings to the coffers of the temple. And the Bible says that there were people who gave a lot, but gave what was left over; And the amount that moved Jesus was that given by a widow, that what he gave was relatively little in comparison. But what moved Jesus was not the amount, but the value of that offering. That woman gave more than the others because she gave everything, gave of her need, her sustenance; The others gave what was left over. For God, what was valuable was measured not by what they gave, but by what was left over, by what remained after giving. To the others, they had a long time after giving; Not like that woman; She gave of her sustenance, and her action caught the attention of Christ.

There are times when you need to get Jesus' attention, times when you need Him to move in your favor, to turn your gaze to you. And, if something moves God, it is when you learn to give him the most valuable, the most difficult, the hardest. That act of faith, for Him represents everything. Why? Because that is one of the demonstrations of your divine nature; God gave the best of Him.
