WHY?GENER OUS IT IS MORE BLESSED TO GIVE THAN TO RECEIVE ACTS 20:35

ITS A GREAT WORD! The nature of God The character of Jesus The action of the Holy Spirit It is about ATTITUDE MORE THAN ADEQUATE Generosity cant be measured anywhere but its noticed everywhere 2 Corinthians 8:2-3 Philippians 2:3

THE NATURE OF GOD Creation is not just adequate! God created it then gave it to us to enjoy and to rule over, to live in and multiply. Psalm 8:3 When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars that you have set in place……….

ROB DUNN, AUTHOR OF EVERY LIVING THING The truth is we are still so ignorant……there is still not a plot of tropical forest anywhere in the world that has been inventioned completely – not even a hectare.

THE PROMISES OF GOD – MORE THAN ADEQUATE Abraham – a very ordinary bloke A nobody is made a somebody and promised to bless nations. MORE THAN ADEQUATE And this promise remains for you and me as we are, by faith heirs of the promise. Promise of the Holy Spirit is not just a ticket for heaven – its a promise of being more than conquerors.

Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord. They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope. Matthew 11:28-29 Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. Isaiah 40:29-31 He gives power to the weak and strength to the powerless. Even youths will become weak and tired, and young men will fall in exhaustion. But those who trust in the Lord will find new strength. They will soar high on wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint. Philippians 4:19 And this same God who takes care of me will supply all your needs from his glorious riches, which have been given to us in Christ.

Romans 8:37-39 No, despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loved us. And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from Gods love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrownot even the powers of hell can separate us from Gods love. No power in the sky above or in the earth belowindeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord. Proverbs 1:33 But all who listen to me will live in peace, untroubled by fear of harm. John 14:27 I am leaving you with a giftpeace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So dont be troubled or afraid. Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord

FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD THAT HE GAVE
