LIFE APPLICATION TRUTH-GENEROSITY

November 21st, 2012 1 comment

JOHN SHIRK – From Second Corinthians 9:11.

“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.”

One of the outcomes of a life filled with thanksgiving is generosity. Our hearts are made tender toward people in need. St. Augustine once said, “Find out how much God has given you and take from it what you need; the remainder will be needed by others.”

This thought challenges us not to be wasteful with what we have been given, but to consider how we might use what we have wisely, including life’s extras. Material things are not for hoarding, but for personal enjoyment and generous giving. We find this principle in First Timothy 6, where Paul told Timothy to command the rich in this present world to put their hope in God, who richly provides us with everything for our enjoyment. And then, he told Timothy to command them to do good, to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share.

Generosity is a vital sign of a changed life in the Year of Transformation.

PRAISE&WORSHIP THANKSGIVING EDITION!

November 18th, 2012 6 comments

KRISTI LEIGH – It’s time for one of my favorite Praise & Worship Show themes of the entire year: The Thanksgiving Edition!  Whether your life is great right now…or totally falling apart, God is good.  I don’t share these words lightly–I’ve lived them and know they’re true!  When things are rough, it can be difficult to sing about God’s goodness or our feelings of gratitude toward Him, but my encouragement is to forget about your trials and challenges.  Just think about Jesus.  Your sacrifice of praise is a beautiful and powerful thing!

To quote Hillsong’s “Desert Song”:
“All of my life, in every season
You are still God and I have a reason to sing
I have a reason to worship!”
I hope this Thanksgiving is alive in your heart!
