GRATEFUL AND GIVING

Genesis 12:1-3: “The LORD had said to Abram, "Leave your country, your people and your father's household and go to the land I will show you. I will make you into a a great nation

And I will bless you; I will make your name great, and you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you.”

I will bless you. You will be a blessing.

I. LET’S PRACTICE BEING GRATEFUL.

“In everything give thanks; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.” (1 Thessalonians. 5:18)

Philippians 4:6-7: “Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.

And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”

“The unthankful heart...discovers no mercies; but let the thankful heat sweep through the day and, as the magnet finds the iron, so it will find, in every hour, some heavenly blessings!” Henry Ward Beecher

The grateful person has an unlimited capacity to enjoy God’s blessings, no matter how few or how many they may be. unlimited capacity

II. LET’S GIVE CHEERFULLY FROM THAT GRATEFULNESS.

2 Corinthians 9:6-9: “Remember this: Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously. Each person should give what they have decided

in their heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.”

Cheerful givers are a great testimony to how much we are satisfied with our Savior.
