New Dawn Daily Devotional with Apostle Joel
*[[1Co 9:11]] ISV* If we have sown spiritual seed among you, is it too much if we reap material benefits from you?God's children should learn from the Word of God to take care of those
who plant spiritual seeds into their lives with material benefits.
Start to take your responsibility to take care of those who feed you
with the Word of God, this will help reduce the gimmicks which some men
and women of God do to raise finances for their needs.

Corinthians 9:14 Philips translation says, "On the same principle the
Lord has ordered that those who proclaim the gospel should receive their
livelihood from those who accept the gospel" . Our Lord Jesus Christ
has commanded that ministers of the Gospel should live through the
teaching of the Word of God.
Galatians 6:6 reinforces the same
truth: "Let him who receives instruction in the Word [of God] share all
good things with his teacher [contributing to his support]" (Amplified).
The Phillips translation of this verse says, "The man under
Christian instruction should be willing to contribute toward the
livelihood of his teacher."
First Timothy 5:17 in The Living
Bible says, "Pastors who do their work well should be paid well and
should be highly appreciated, especially those who work hard at both
preaching and teaching."
The Williams translation says, "Elders
who do their duties well should be considered as deserving twice the
salary they get, especially those who keep on toiling in preaching and
teaching."
So the Word of God makes it clear that ministers of the Gospel should be well supported by those they minister to.
Make up your mind to start appreciating those who minister your
spiritual needs.This could be the key to your miracle you have been
seeking.
Prayer
Dear Heavenly Father, Today i make up my
mind to advance the Kingdom of God by taking care of God's ministers
needs. God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ is counting on me and I
will not let him down. I now know my responsibility in the kingdom of
Heaven in Jesus name. Amen
