GOALS

Philippians 3:14

"I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus."

The Multiplication Effect

2 Corinthians 8:1-7, 9

"Now I want you to know, dear brothers and sisters, what God in his kindness has done through the churches in Macedonia. 2 They are being tested by many troubles, and they are very poor. But they are also filled with abundant joy, which has overflowed in rich generosity. 3 For I can testify that they gave not only what they could afford, but far more. And they did it of their own free will. 4 They begged us again and again for the privilege of sharing in the gift for the believers in Jerusalem. 5 They even did more than we had hoped, for their first action was to give themselves to the Lord and to us, just as God wanted them to do.

6 So we have urged Titus, who encouraged your giving in the first place, to return to you and encourage you to finish this ministry of giving. 7 Since you excel in so many ways—in your faith, your speech, your knowledge, your enthusiasm, and your love for us —I want you to excel also in this grace of giving.

9 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."

Giving Ladder:

0% - 3% Nothing to Something

3% - 7% Something to Significant

7% - 10% Significant to Tithing

10% - 15%+ Tithing to Sacrificial

Proverbs 3:5

"Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding."

Growing in the grace of giving is act of faith that God blesses.

Whatever you give to God, he multiplies.

Mark 10:29-30

Jesus replied, "and I assure you that everyone who has given up house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or property, for my sake and for the Good News, 30 will receive a hundred times as much in this present age: homes, brothers, sisters, mothers, children and fields—along with persecutions—and in the age to come eternal life."

Whatever you give to God, he multiplies.

2 Corinthians 9:6,8

"Remember this: Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously…And God will generously provide all you need. Then you will always have everything you need and plenty left over to share with others."

Whatever you give to God, he multiplies.
