Giving is not only Godly and a command from God, it is blessed.

In love God 's law is 'Give and you will receive'...pushed down, shaken together and running into your lap.

But our heart is key. If we are giving from a heart other than from obedience, joy and love...we have missed the mark. Our heart must be pure before God, not giving to receive blessing and not giving out of guilt or any other motive...other than love for our God and for others. God sees our heart.

Only God knows a persons situation and he is not asking us to judge people who beg. He is asking us to come obey and to do as He asks us, in His word and through His Holy Spirit.

We must be both wise as serpents and gentle as doves.

Matthew 5:42

Give to the one who begs from you, and do not refuse the one who would borrow from you. 42 Give to those who ask, and don't turn away from those who want to borrow. 42 No more tit-for-tat stuff. Live generously.

Luke 21:1-4

As Jesus looked up, he saw the rich putting their gifts into the temple treasury. He also saw a poor widow put in two very small copper coins. “Truly I tell you,” he said, “this poor widow has put in more than all the others. All these people gave their gifts out of their wealth; but she out of her poverty put in all she had to live on.”

Luke 19:8

But Zacchaeus stood up and said to the Lord, “Look, Lord! Here and now I give half of my possessions to the poor, and if I have cheated anybody out of anything, I will pay back four times the amount.”

Matthew 6:1-4

“Be careful not to practice your righteousness in front of others to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven. So when you give to the needy, do not announce it with trumpets, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the streets, to be honored by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your giving may be in secret. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.”

1 Timothy 6:17-19

Command those who are rich in this present world not to be arrogant nor to put their hope in wealth, which is so uncertain, but to put their hope in God, who richly provides us with everything for our enjoyment. Command them to do good, to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share. In this way they will lay up treasure for themselves as a firm foundation for the coming age, so that they may take hold of the life that is truly life.

Matthew 26:6-13

While Jesus was in Bethany in the home of Simon the Leper, a woman came to him with an alabaster jar of very expensive perfume, which she poured on his head as he was reclining at the table. When the disciples saw this, they were indignant. “Why this waste?” they asked.“This perfume could have been sold at a high price and the money given to the poor.” Aware of this, Jesus said to them, “Why are you bothering this woman? She has done a beautiful thing to me. The poor you will always have with you, but you will not always have me. When she poured this perfume on my body, she did it to prepare me for burial. Truly I tell you, wherever this gospel is preached throughout the world, what she has done will also be told, in memory of her.”

2 Corinthians 9:6-8

Remember this: Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously. Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.

Psalm 112:5

Good will come to those who are generous and lend freely, who conduct their affairs with justice.

2 Corinthians 9:10-15

Now he who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will also supply and increase your store of seed and will enlarge the harvest of your righteousness. You will be enriched in every way so that you can be generous on every occasion, and through us your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God. This service that you perform is not only supplying the needs of the Lord’s people but is also overflowing in many expressions of thanks to God. Because of the service by which you have proved yourselves, others will praise God for the obedience that accompanies your confession of the gospel of Christ, and for your generosity in sharing with them and with everyone else. And in their prayers for you their hearts will go out to you, because of the surpassing grace God has given you. Thanks be to God for his indescribable gift!

Proverbs 11:24

One person gives freely, yet gains even more; another withholds unduly, but comes to poverty.

Proverbs 11:25

A generous person will prosper; whoever refreshes others will be refreshed.

Begging is for those that do not understand who they are in Christ Jesus, not living in faith and making God their complete source. No matter what situation we find ourselves in, it is clear that the LORD wants us to learn to come to Him in faith. Then He himself will prompt the hearts of his people to give to you. There are many ways He will bring you miraculous blessing if you trust in Him. It is a sin to ignore the commands of the LORD, and He calls you unto Himself....He is jealous over you, and He wants you to go to Him first, not someone else. You will see in the scriptures below....they don't say ask others....they say ASK GOD HIMSELF. You will see He is a mighty God ready to pour out His blessing on you.
