A Prayer for Giving Joyfully | Your Daily Prayer

Living with Less Podcast
Updated Aug 01, 2025


Whether you’re offering time, resources, encouragement, or tithes, the Bible teaches us to give not out of obligation, but from a heart overflowing with joy and gratitude. This video prayer is a gentle reminder of why joyful giving matters in the life of a believer. Inspired by 2 Corinthians 9:7, this devotion will encourage you to see generosity not as a burden, but as a blessing—a way to reflect God’s own generosity to the world. If you’re struggling with giving, or simply want to align your heart with God's purpose in generosity, this prayer is for you. Heavenly Father, You are the giver of every good and perfect gift. Thank You for the blessings You’ve entrusted to us—big and small. Teach us to give not from guilt or fear, but from faith and freedom. May our offerings—whether money, time, or talents—be marked by love, not reluctance. Let cheerful giving become a reflection of Your grace in us. Use what we give to bless others, build Your kingdom, and bring You glory. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
