KINGDOM ACCOUNTING OR COUNTING THE KINGDOM WAY

KINGDOM ACCOUNTING OR COUNTING THE KINGDOM WAY The worlds method of counting does not compute in the kingdom. In the world the more you add and multiply the more you have and the more you have the more successful you are. But the kingdom adds by subtraction. What you give is never counted, it's what you have left over that is counted. If someone gave $1000.00 and had $1000.00 left over and someone else gave $10.00 and had $1.00 left which gave more? Some will say the thousand giver others the ten giver. Both are wrong! "And Samuel said, Hath the Lord as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the Lord ? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams."1 Samuel 15:22 (KJV) They both gave the same according to kingdom calculations. I asked the thousand giver to give a thousand dollars, he obeyed, and asked the ten dollar giver to give ten dollars, and he obeyed. Their reward is exactly the same for obedience. Obedience, gets them to the next level, not money. In Uganda giving a widow a bar of soap, may save her soul. In America, Giving a widow a car may ease her hardship. I am running My kingdom according to My purpose and I meet needs accordingly. Giving a car to a widow in Uganda would be foolish. What she needed was a bar of soap and that love that touched her heart and resulted in her salvation. A bar of soap would be considered a joke in America.  My kingdom calculator calculates, obedience x attitude. Ten dollars X joyfully given = big eternal returns. $1000.00 given grudgingly = zip, and calculates as a loss. "And he said, Of a truth I say unto you, that this poor widow hath cast in more than they all: [4] For all these have of their abundance cast in unto the offerings of God: but she of her penury hath cast in all the living that she had." Luke 21:3-4 (KJV)
