\ DO YOU WANT A CLOSER WALK WITH JESUS?
(Part 2) Last week we told you there were 4 f areas of faith that were very important We w talked about really knowing the character of
£ God. I pray you received that. The Bible says in Rom. 10:17 "So than faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the word of God." Hearing is to receive the word in your spirit. When the Bible speaks of the heart, it means spirit, by the most part. So, if you have built your foundation, read Col. 1:9-29 #1 Faith Giving. 3 m To be a faith giver, you must know that: 3 p A. God is your source, not your farm; your job, i ? your savings, all this is unstable. Remember it S
! is not what is your source, but WH is your j
p source. (Phil. 4:19). The Bible says, "God is ] f the same today, yesterday and forever There s
^ is a law, or principle of the Bible "sowing and j reaping”. Gal. 6:7 says, "Be not deceived; j God is not mocked: for what so ever a man w soweth, that shall he also reap " So, you can- j not out-give God. In our giving, we will change ?
the world. God said, "we are labores together £ with Him". (I Cor. 3:9. II Cor 6:1) £
(B). Jesus said in Luke 6:38, "Give, and | it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and run- & ning over, shall men give into your bosom. 9 i For with the same mesure that ye mete withal £ i it shall be measured to you again Whatever p | you give becomes a seed It can be money, S' time or material things. You plant your seed 9
for God to multiply back to you. But, you must J first give by faith. y We have singers in our church that are 9 very good, but I remember the first time some 9 of them sang, it was not that good But. they y gave and God gave them a beautiful voice. I 9 have seen it work in finances, love, talent. S' time, anything that represents you. You give until it becomes a part of you. Just as you look to God as your source, and give to God as 9 seed you plant: so must you expect a miracle £ from God. When you do your part and realize your faith, God will send the miracle. Part 3 of this series will be next week. Remember, Jesus is the man Faith is the message. Love is the method. This article sponsored by: ROBERT DUNPHY MINISTRIES, INC. 1, Box 266. Sperryville.
