1 THESSALONIANS 5:18 (NASB) In everything give thanks; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus.

Christians ought to be the most generous people in the world.

1 TIMOTHY 6:17-19 (NIV) Command those who are rich in this present world not to be arrogant nor to put their hope in wealth, which is so uncertain.

Hope can drift onto yourself or onto your wealth.

1 TIMOTHY 6:17-19 (NIV) Command those who are rich in this present world not to be arrogant nor to put their hope in wealth, which is so uncertain.

1 TIMOTHY 6:17-19 (NIV) but to put their hope in God, who richly provides us with everything for our enjoyment.

1 TIMOTHY 6:17-19 (NIV) Command them to do good, to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share.

1 TIMOTHY 6:17-19 (NIV) In this way they will lay up treasure for themselves as a firm foundation for the coming age, so that they may take hold of the life that is truly life.

The way You and I take hold of the life which is truly life is by opening our hands.

A generous life requires a plan.

The tithe is not a law of God. The tithe is a grace of God.

2 CORINTHIANS 9:12 (NIV) Your generosity is not only supplying the needs of the Lord’s people but is also overflowing in many expressions of thanks to God.

2 CORINTHIANS 8:9 (NLT) You know the generous grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. Though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, so that by his poverty he could make you rich.
