How To Be Rich!

week 3 at Lifechurch
Why did God make you rich?
11You 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. 2 Cor 9:11

God has blessed us with more than we need. We're rich. But we will not trust in our riches, but in Him who richly provides. Because we have more, we will give more!

*because I have more, I will give more!
How can you learn to give more?
*you must be an intentional giver. plan! practice giving!
2 Cor 9:7

I will intentionally...
1) return to God what belongs to God
Leviticus 27:30 Malachi 3:10
*tithing teaches me to put God first!
The purpose of tithing is to teach you always to put God first in your lives.
Deuteronomy 14:23 The Living Bible
*tithing increases my faith in God!
Malachi 3:10
2) give more and more and more!
2 Cor 8:7

We will not give like average people! We will give like one who is rich!

God has blessed us with more than we need. We're rich. But we will not trust in our riches, but in Him who richly provides. Because we have more, we will give more!
