SERIES: I WAS MADE FOR THIS
Ps.
Aaron Creasey
RECAP
I was made for his Plan
I was made for his Purpose
PASSAGE - LUKE 7
A MAN WITH EVERYTHING
AND A WOMAN WITH NOTHING
A MAN WITH EVERYTHING
Status
Money
House
Community
AND A WOMAN WITH NOTHING
ITS EASY TO SAY THE BIGGEST DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THEM IS WHAT THEY HAD IN THEIR HAND.
BUT ACTUALLY THE BIGGEST DIFFERENCE IS HOW THEY HELD IT IN THEIR HEART
EVERYONE IS MEANT TO CARRY SOMETHING
BUT WE ARE ALL MEANT TO CARRY IT THE SAME WAY.
WHAT YOU WERE CALLED TO CARRY,
WHAT YOU HAVE BEEN GIVEN
IS DIFFERENT THAN WHAT I HAVE BEEN GIVEN.
BUT WE ARE MEANT TO CARRY IT THE SAME WAY
WITH AN OPEN HAND
WE WERE MEANT TO BE GENEROUS
TITLE: YOU WERE MADE FOR GENEROSITY
PRAY
WE ARE GENEROUS BECAUSE HE WAS FIRST GENEROUS TO US!
I LOVE THINKING ABOUT THIS THOUGHT:
Everything that we have, comes from God.
ALL THINGS COME FROM GOD
THROUGH HIM AND FOR HIM!
But it is our choice to live FOR him.
Anything that we have received has come from him, but here is the important part.
It is made to go back to him!
ITS FROM HIM AND ITS FOR HIM
I love how PAUL puts it in Ephesians
Ephesians 3:7 (NLT)
7 By God’s grace and mighty power, I have been given the privilege of serving him by spreading this Good News.
GIVEN TO SERVE
GIVEN TO GIVE
THINGS ARE NOT BAD, BUT HOW WE HOLD THEM MAKES ALL THE DIFFERENCE.
Its not our nature to hold things well!
this is why generosity is a constant reminder
STORY
MICAH - Not wanting to let go of the shell.
Human nature tells us to close our hands when receive something of great value.
Kingdom Nature tells us to hold it with an open hand.
It may not be our nature
We were made to be generous
GENEROSITY IS NOT ABOUT FINANCES
Talking about generosity with TIME, THOUGHT LIFE, PRAYER LIFE, FINANCES, THINGS, THE WORDS THAT WE SPEAK,
ITS NOT IN OUR NATURE
HOW DO WE MAKE IT EASIER?
HOW DO WE MAKE A LIFE OF GENEROSITY ACHIEVABLE?
Pt One: Generosity Takes Our Ownership
Generosity REQUIRES ownership.
YOU CAN’T GIVE WHAT YOU DON’T HAVE
IF THATS YOUR TIME… IF THATS YOUR FINANCES… OR IF THAT IS WITH YOUR POSSESIONS
"I feel like God wants me to give a car away”
I cant now just give my neighbors car away.
I DON’T OWN IT!
Same thing, if I feel led to give $1,000 to Berm
but I only have $100 I cant give it, because I don’t have it.
YOU CAN’T GIVE WHAT YOU DON’T HAVE
Finances is the easy target but this goes for all areas of your life.
ESPECIALLY TRUE FOR OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS.
ARE YOU GENEROUS WITH YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS
IF WE ARE TO TRULEY SHARE JESUS WITH THOSE AROUND US
WE NEED TO TRULEY OWN OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS.
What does it look like to own your Relationship with Jesus?
ACCEPTANCE WHERE YOU ARE AT
APPLICATION IN THE PRESENT
Reading, Praying, Worshiping.
VISION FOR THE FUTURE
This is what makes your relationship personal.
TO have a personal revelation of who Jesus is for you personally.
FIGURE OUT HOW YOU WORK, AND WORK IT
Reading this book about trees from a forest somewhere oversees.
I forget where.
Young Trees that are unable to get nutrients for themselves, from the sun.
Grab nutrients from trees around.
The other trees may keep them alive,
But when it comes time for them to grow into adult trees themselves
(so they can share nutrients with the trees around them)
They will do one of two things
They will sprout up fast and skinny causing them to rely on the trees around them, which then the shade from the trees that they are going to for help, ends up killing them from the lack of sunlight.
OR be unable to grow all together and eventually succumb to nature.
Such a great picture, of a life of spiritual ownership with Jesus.
A TREE CAN TRY TO SURVIVE WITHOUT THE SUN BUT SOONER OR LATER IT IS GOING TO NEED THE SUN
WE NEED THE SON - WE NEED OUR PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS
We are called to Ownership of our faith
QUESTION:
Where is your ownership level at with your faith?
Is it something that you borrow or something that you have made your own?
What can you do to go Deeper with Jesus in this season?
OWNERSHIP COMES FROM REVELATION
REVELATION COMES FROM PERSONAL ENCOUNTER
Revelation is Less of what you have to do
And more about the revelation of what HE has done for you.
