The liberality referred to here is liberality for
kingdom purposes. Giving generally opens a floodgate of blessings (Luke Chapter
6 verse 38, Isaiah Chapter 32 verse 8) and also brings healings in diverse
dimensions to the peoples and nations of the world (Job Chapter 42 verses 6 to
12, Genesis Chapter 20). When people and nations give of their time, money,
expertise, knowledge, skills, etc to bring people out of poverty, ignorance,
and diseases into a better quality life, they are giving healing (as some of
their Christian brethren take advantage of such opportunities to serve as
missionaries) and they in turn; both the sending nations and missionaries
receive healings from God as well.
God gave the greatest gift of all for the
redemption, salvation and deliverance of humanity from satanic captivity and
death to abundant life in Christ Jesus. Please see John Chapter 3 verse 16, John Chapters 10
verse 10; 15 verse 13 , Romans Chapter 8 verses 31 to 32, 2nd
Corinthians Chapter 8 verse 9.
In the book of Haggai Chapters 1 and 2, the Bible
records that the people of Judah gave of
their resources to complete the rebuilding of the Temple in Jerusalem that was
abandoned on account of the fierce opposition to the rebuilding of the Temple. As
the people released their resources for the rebuilding of the temple, they were
healed of the famine in the land despite the fact that they had not planted
fresh crops.
