“Having been warned in a dream not to go back to Herod, they returned to their country by another route.” – Matthew 2:12
The Magi listened to God’s guidance and changed their plans to protect the Christ child. This shows us the importance of being open to God’s direction, even in our giving. Do you seek God’s guidance before you give? Are you willing to follow His lead, even if it means changing your plans?
Spend time in prayer, asking God to show you where He wants you to give this season. Be open to unexpected opportunities to be a blessing.
Prayer:
Lord, just as You guided the Magi, guide me in my giving. Show me where and how I can make the greatest impact. Give me the wisdom to recognize the opportunities You place before me, and the courage to follow Your leading, even when it challenges my plans. Amen.
