“He who has a generous eye will be blessed, For he gives of his bread to the poor.” (Proverbs 22:9 NKJV)
He is challenging us to establish the habit of having our eyes watchful for opportunities to bless and share our bread, especially the bread from heaven, with the spiritually hungry. That's the secret catalyst of prosperity and success in the Kingdom of God's economy, sharing our Lord Jesus Christ - the holy Word from heaven (John 1:14). Doing so with ardor ensures continuous flow of resources and wealth to those who are disadvantaged and in need. That's how God's economic system works. God blesses us to bless others. Keeping in mind that Lord Jesus said: 'it is more blessed to give than to receive (Acts 20:35)'. Blessing others is the engine of progress provided by God for our overarching prosperity as His children in Christ Jesus.
Our bread and everything we have is of God. We are mere stewards. So, it is fitting to heed the Lord's command: "Freely you have received; freely give." (Matthew 10:8b). An open hand propels exponential returns for the wise agents in the economic activity of God's Kingdom. Keeping which that we gain in a tight fist kills the growth of our personal resources and shuts the inflow of blessings. It hinders God’s system to work for our prosperity. It is written: "The world of the generous gets larger and larger; the world of the stingy gets smaller and smaller. The one who blesses others is abundantly blessed; those who help others are helped.” (Proverbs 11:24, 25 MSG)
