Joyce Meyer Daily Devotional 3 March 2026 (Tuesday) Message
TOPIC: What Does Real Generosity Look Like?
In everything I have pointed out to you [by example] that, by working diligently in this manner, we ought to assist the weak, being mindful of the words of the Lord Jesus, how He Himself said, It is more blessed (makes one happier and more to be envied) to give than to receive.
— Acts 20:35 (AMPC)
There are many people around us on a daily basis who are in need. People we could bless if we took a moment to think about how we could help them.
I have learned that true giving is not giving until I can feel it. Giving away clothes and household items that are old and I am finished with may be a nice gesture, but it does not equate to real giving. Real giving occurs when I give something I want to keep, or I make an effort that will give aid to someone else.
That’s how God gave to us. When He sent Jesus to pay for our sins, He gave His very best. God gave us His only Son because He loves us, so what will love cause us to do? Can we at least be inconvenienced or uncomfortable occasionally in order to help someone in need?
