Week 1 Good news, bad news
Week 2 Deceitfulness of riches
Week 3 Why did God make you rich?
Week 4 How to BE rich
2 Corinthians 9:11
11 You will be made rich in every way so that you can be generous on every occasion, and through us your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God.
2 Corinthians 9:7
7 Each man should give what he has decided in his heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.
If you want to give from the heart, intentionally, then return
to God what belongs to God:
Consider the principle behind returning to God what belongs to God
Leviticus 27:30 30A tithe of everything from the land, whether grain from the soil or fruit from the trees, belongs to the Lord; it is holy to the Lord.
If you want to give from the heart, intentionally, then return
to God what belongs to God:
Consider the principle behind returning to God what belongs to God
Malachi 3:10a 10
Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there
may be food in my house.
If you want to give from the heart, intentionally, then return
to God what belongs to God:
Consider the principle behind Tithing that helps us put God first
Deuteronomy 14:23 (TLB) 23The purpose of tithing is to teach you always to put God first in your lives.
If you want to give from the heart, intentionally, then return
to God what belongs to God:
Consider the principle behind Tithing that helps increase our faith in God
Malachi 3:10b Test me in this,” says the Lord Almighty, “and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that you will not have room enough for it.”
Is the spiritual discipline and principle of tithing
affirmed by Jesus?
Matt 23:23…“Woe to you, teachers of the law and
Pharisees, you hypocrites! You give a tenth of your spices—mint, dill and cummin. But you
have neglected the more important matters of the law—justice, mercy and faithfulness. You
should have practised the latter, without neglecting the former.
Giving more… and more?
2 Corinthians 8:7
But just as you excel in everything… see that you also excel in this grace of giving
God has blessed me with more than I need. I’m rich. (Wk 1)
I will not trust in riches, but in Him who richly provides. (Wk 2)
Because I have more, I’ll give more.(Wk 3)
