Summary

What does God say about investing? Discover his economy and multiplying your efforts beyond measure. Learn how to be a faithful steward and sow generously.

Introduction

As believers, God calls us to be good stewards of the resources entrusted to us. This includes not only our money, but also our time, talents, and even our very hearts. In 2 Corinthians 9:6-10, Paul talks about how what we give to God, we will receive back from him.

What Does God Say About Investing? You Reap What You Sow

Paul believes that the amount you sow directly affects the amount you will receive. If you sow a small amount, you will only receive a small amount in return. However, if you sow a large amount, you can expect to receive a larger amount in return.

God's economy is not like the world's economy. In the world, we often measure success by how much we accumulate for ourselves.

What Does God Say About Investing? Some Practical Suggestions

So, how can we practically invest in God's economy? A surrendered heart to him is where it starts.
