*SOURCE OF WEALTH*
1st September, 2025
READ: 1 Samuel 25:2-17
Shall I then take my bread, and my water, and my flesh that I have killed for my shearers, and give it unto men, whom I know not whence they be?
1 Samuel 25:11
When God blesses you and gives you great increase you are expected to remember the house of God. Your wealth is supposed to produce wealth for the kingdom of God. Become a source of wealth for the church by remembering the Lord when you are blessed. Nabal is the best example of someone who did not remember the Lord when he experienced prosperity. When you do not remember God’s house in your day of prosperity, you are good for nothing.
Be the salt of the earth by being a source of wealth for the kingdom of God. Become a source of wealth for the church by giving special offerings.
Moreover, because I have set my affection to the house of my God, I have of mine own proper good, of gold and silver, which I have given to the house of my God, over and above all that I have prepared for the holy house.
1 Chronicles 29:3
Be the salt of the earth by being a source of wealth for the kingdom of God. Become a source of wealth for the church by helping when there is a need.
I have received my full pay and have more than enough. I have everything I need. That’s because Epaphroditus brought me the gifts you sent. They are a sweet-smelling offering. They are a gift that God accepts. He is pleased with it. My God will meet all your needs. He will meet them in keeping with his wonderful riches. These riches come to you because you belong to Christ Jesus.
Philippians 4:15-19 (NIRV)
