PC 2011 01 03 Looking unto Jesus
Posted on January 3, 2011 | No CommentsThe scriptures are on the video, some of my notes are below Our primary personal stewardship is that of our own heart. Proverbs 4:23 Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it [are] the issues of life. we need to guard it by meditating on God’s word, by surrounding ourselves with his promises and by being constantly aware of his thoughts towards us. I wish to make clear that the BIble is not talking about eastern meditation as we know it today -
TL_78_Reject Covetousness & Idolatry
Posted on October 16, 2010 | No CommentsE. CONCLUSION Covetousness is idolatry because when we are ruled by greed, we serve our own personal interests first, thus obeying the dictates of our flesh rather than the leadings of the Lord God. Covetousness is a subtle way of putting something before God in our lives. We put our own interests before His and those of others, and unwittingly become servants of Mammon. We must face it squarely: We are covetous to the degree we let the love of money rule us. Love of money is the root... -

He may test for a while, but He will bless those that put Him and His Kingdom first in their lives. God wills that we prosper in every dimension of our lives (3 Jn 2). However, we often prevent this prosperity from happening in our finances because we violate basic principles in handling our money. One of the reasons... -

Posted on October 2, 2010 | No CommentsD. GIVING: A SOURCE OF GOD’S BLESSING 3 of 4 3. Kingdom Principles Our attitude toward money is all-important. If we are faithful to learn and observe some basic principles of Kingdom economics, we will begin to see our money problems disappear. a. All Money Is God’s. “The earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof?” (Ps 24:1;50:12) “The silver is mine, and the gold is mine says the Lord” (Hag 2:8). Even the money that the sinners have ultimately belongs to God and will one day be turned... -

Posted on September 25, 2010 | No CommentsD. GIVING: A SOURCE OF GOD’S BLESSING 2 of 4 2. The Measure Of Our Giving The greatest giver in the Bible was a little widow who only had two mites (about one penny) – and she gave it, Jesus said, “.. this poor widow has given more than all the rest of them combined” (Luke 21:3). God measures our giving by what we have left, not what we put in the offering. I have seen many church leaders who want their members to give to support them and... -

Posted on September 18, 2010 | No CommentsD. GIVING: A SOURCE OF GOD’S BLESSING 1 of 4 Giving is a matter of faith, not a matter of what we have. As an example, here is a spiritual principle you will disagree with unless you have faith. After you have given one dollar in tithe out of your ten dollar income, the nine dollars left – with God’s blessing on it – will go farther toward meeting your needs than the ten dollars without God’s blessing. (Go back and read it once more). No mathematics teacher in... -

Three Weaknesses To Watch Three weaknesses usually let us know if we have a problem with the love of money: l selfishness, l bad stewardship, and l not giving to God. a. Selfishness. There are ministers who use the Lord’s money to buy expensive motorcycles and houses. “We’ll use them for the Lord’s service, “they rationalize. It can be exactly the same immature self-centered thinking as the fellows in the boot camp dormitory. Buying a one hundred...
