[Sunday] Coveting Abundance - Generosity
We should fear and love God so that we do not scheme to get our neighbor’s inheritance, house, wife, or get it in a way which only appears right, but help and be of service to them in keeping it.
QUESTIONS FOR THE WEEK: Generosity - Coveting Abundance
-What kinds of things are done under the guise of fair dealing by people who want what belongs to someone else yet do not want to appear dishonest? How does society aid and abet such practices?
Read 1 Kings 21:1-16. How do Ahab and Jezebel covet? How are their actions dishonest?
What ways today are we tempted to act in a similar way to Ahab and Jezebel?
In a world full of coveting, Jesus “gives his life as a ransom for many” (Mark 10:45). How is Jesus the opposite of the world? What hope does this hold for you?
What Had happened at Grace this week.
It's right there, all around us is the party of God's abundance. The question for us all is: Will we enjoy ourselves in God’s generosity, or will we rely on our own strength?
