Seed will always yield greater

Heb 11:17

“By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son.”

Faith is not afraid to give up what it possesses in the now. Faith understands that what you have with you now when given up becomes the minimum, the seed that will yield greater. The Scriptures say, when Abraham was

tried, he offered up what was his only begotten son. 

It might be the only thing while it was in your hand, but when released it becomes one of the many. Remember the widow woman at Zarephath, she had only a meal left for herself and her son. The plan was to eat it and die but then she was challenged to give it up for Elijah, and when she did, the barrel of flour did not fail neither did the cruse of oil stop running. 

Faith recognizes if I am being asked to give up my last, it is only to make room for more.

Psalm 126:5 &6

“They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.”

Faith is perfected by your giving.
