ADVICE

Choose An Over-And-Above Mentality

  • Do cultivate an "over and above" mentality by doing more than what's required to help others.
  • Doing extra positions you for God to open doors, bring favor, and multiply blessings in your life.
INSIGHT

Generosity Multiplies Opportunities

  • Generosity often multiplies beyond the initial gift rather than depleting you.
  • Barnabas' one generous act led to mentorship, ministry influence, and long-term opportunities.
ADVICE

Avoid Minimum-Effort Living

  • Do not live at the level of obligation or do the minimum to get by; stretch your generosity instead.
  • When you release what you have, you invite God to release greater blessings in return.
