Power of Giving It Away



Key Scripture:  “This most generous God who gives seed to the farmer that becomes bread for your meals is more than extravagant with you.  He gives you something you can then give away, which grows into full-formed lives, robust in God, wealthy in every way, so that you can be generous in every way, producing with us great praise to God.” II Corinthians 9, The Message
Power Point:
Your prayers are a force to be reckoned with. Give them away.
His love in you is a force to be reckoned with. Give it away.
Heaven in you and through you is a force to be reckoned with. Give it away.
Being in Jesus is a force to be reckoned with.  Give it away.
God’s glory is a force to reckoned with. Give it away.

The key to abundant life in the kingdom is having the generous heart of God in you.  He gave everything away for us and we’re supposed to keep the flow going. He’s given us gifts.  Give them away. Give away His wisdom and knowledge, His healing and compassion. Give away His thoughts. Give away His Presence. He’s given you the keys to abundance in Him. Give them away. He’s given you Himself.  Give Him away.

You get to bring God on the scene for yourself and for every person you meet. Give Him away so that other people can see His goodness and kindness and His plans for them. He gives us freely all things to enjoy. Give those things away.

“If you want more happy than your heart can hold,
If you want to stand taller if the truth were told,
Take whatever you have and give it away!”
If you want less lonely and a lot more fun
And deep satisfaction when the day is done,
Throw your heart wide open and give it away.”
(Bill Gaither, “Give It Away”)

Power Thought:
Do you want more happy than your heart can hold?
