How do we know that God inspires generosity in giving?

Answered in 1 source

God inspires generosity by working grace in the hearts of believers, leading them to give willingly.

The spirit of generosity is closely tied to the grace of God. In 2 Corinthians 8:2-3, Paul notes that the Macedonian churches gave beyond their ability, prompted by a willing heart, indicative of God's grace at work in them. This willingness to give, even in the face of poverty, showcases that true generosity comes from a heart touched and transformed by God's grace. Thus, when believers experience God's goodness, they respond with joyful and willing hearts to support fellow saints, understanding that their resources ultimately belong to God.
