“Practice Over And Above Giving”
Practice Over And Above Giving
- The Bible teaches there is more, and we are called upon to practice over and above giving; meaning, we are to practice giving over and above the first tenth of all God gives us.
- The Bible teaches generosity; the world does not. Generosity is an investment into eternity, not an investment into this world.
- Generosity is a lifestyle that gives freely and lives open handedly. Closed hands, cold heart. Open hands, warm heart.
- Living like this will lead you not only to give God the first then percent of all He gives you, but it will also lead you to practice over and above giving.
- God gives you His greatest gift, Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
- God is the one who provides for you.
- The principle of generosity- what you sow, you reap.
- Grace is overflowing: When God sees generosity, His grace extends more toward you so you can give generously.
- God meets your needs: When he sees generosity, He takes care of you.
- Grace giving is over and above generosity, being lived out by us.
