“The Motive for Giving”
Pastor Joey Anjiki
1. Place first not human evaluation, but God’s evaluation
* Matthew 6:2 (See above)
* The Pharisees lived placing first “evaluation from visible people”
* Matthew 6:4 (See above)
* Live placing first evaluation from invisible God
2. Do not request anything in return, but give for the glory of God
* Matthew 6:1 (See above)
* Matthew 6:3 (See above)
* The broken statue of Christ
3. Turn your eyes to God, who abundantly rewards
* Matthew 6:1 “…If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven.” (NIV)
* Matthew 6:2 “…Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full.” (NIV)
* Matthew 6:4 “…Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you” (NIV)
* Reward = “misthos” in Greek
* The story of a teacher and young girl
* Proverbs 19:17 “Whoever is kind to the poor lends to the Lord, and he will reward them for what they have done.” (NIV)
Thoughts to share at mini church:
1. What does living a life that places not the eyes of humans, but the eyes of God first bring about in us?
2. What kind of mindset should we have when doing good deeds?
3. Have you ever received a reward from God?
