Psalm 138:2 I will bow down toward Your holy temple and will praise Your name for Your love and Your faithfulness for You have exalted above all things Your name and Your word.

His name and His word give us all we need. Between the promises in His word and the authority in His name, there is no need that God has not already met. As we humble ourselves before Him, He trains us to rightly divide His word as He transforms our nature into the image of His Son so we can bear the family name.

1 Peter 4:10 Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God's grace in its various forms.

What God has given me is good. Where He has led me is right. That which He has purposed for me is proper. What He has given to others is for them; He will hold them accountable for how they used their gifts, for how they followed God's leading for them. I have only what comes from God, and only what God has given me will I be responsible for. For only what God has given me will He give me strength and skill to use.

1 Samuel 16:7 But the Lord said to Samuel, “Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The Lord does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.”

Just as God does not look simply at how much we give, but rather at whether we give out of our plenty or our necessity, neither does He look simply at what we do, but rather at why we do it. Each comes from the heart, and will either make the gift acceptable, or unacceptable, to God.
