Special Missions Contributions
2 Corinthians 8:13-14 the goal is equality!
When does money stop being Gods? We would all agree that every good blessing comes from God and that he is the ultimate provider! When does the money that God blesses us with stop becoming his?
2 Kings 6:32-7:1-19
God provided in a situation by all human logic was hopeless!
Gods name is Jehovah Jireh! God provides! Genesis 22:1-24
When your in need you can relate and remember others that are in need. The men with leprosy were in need and when God provided they did forget the other people that were in need.
Do you have enough money? Do you have enough for needs or wants? There is a difference between what we want and what we actually need! There is no end to mans wants! What are eyes desire have no limits!
We have more than enough and others have too little!
By sharing these men saved an entire city. They are never mentioned again in the Bible and their names were never recorded. Giving and sharing did not cure their leprosy or make them rich. Their reward was not in this life time!
Matthew 6:19-21
Of your concern in life is to be rich then giving will not be your priority. Giving money will not make you rich but giving money will not make you poorer either. The Gods goal is equality.
When does money stop being Gods? The men with leprosy new that the money was not theirs and they knew they needed to share. When you believe this, when you know that it is not yours in the first place it is easy to give.
What about us? When we see we have more than enough, when we see that God has provided! What will we give?
