A. MEMORY VERSE: “A feast is made for laughter, and wine maketh merry: but money answereth all things”. Ecclesiastes 10:19

B. BIBLE TEXT: LUKE 8:1-3
. And it came to pass afterward, that he went throughout every city and village, preaching and shewing the glad tidings of the kingdom of God: and the twelve were with him,

  1. And certain women, which had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary called Magdalene, out of whom went seven devils,
  2. And Joanna the wife of Chuza Herod’s steward, and Susanna, and many others, which ministered unto him of their substance.

C. LESSON INTRODUCTION: If wishes were horses, beggars might ride. Wishes have never made and can never make a poor man wealthy. God is ready to bless His children but that blessing that He trusted into your hand is meant to be used for the growth of His Kingdom on earth.

BLESSING, A NECESSITY FOR THE CHILDREN OF THE KINGDOM
God is ready to bless His children:

  1. A genuine blessing comes from God, Hab 2:8
  2. With the condition of their readiness, Isaiah 1:19
  3. It is He that giveth power to get wealth, Deuteronomy 8:18
  4. God can also cause our blessings to cease, 1 Chronicles 29:12, Ecclesiastes 5:18, Hosea 2:11. The Lord maketh poor and maketh rich 1 Samuel 2:7

The children of the Kingdom can provoke His blessings by:

  1. Believing and trusting in God, Romans 10:10
  2. Being diligent, Proverbs 22:29
  3. Giving and sowing especially in the life of the needy and in the house of God, Luke 6:38, Isaiah 55:10. Abraham sowed his only son Isaac, Genesis 22:15-17
  4. Showing kindness to others. Remember the good Samaritan.

It is commonly said that nothing goes for nothing. Money is meant to be spent. God has blessed you so that His work will no longer suffer any lack on the earth.

THE KINGDOM CHILDREN’S RESPONSIBILITY
The children of the kingdom are blessed in order to use their wealth for the Kingdom’s advancement, Luke 8:1-3. Like Peter who gave his boat to Jesus to use – Luke 5:3. Your car, your boat, your home as centre for house fellowship, your talents, your time, your substance etc. can be used for the King’s work. Tabitha, called Docas used her blessing to help the poor and widows, Acts 9:36-39. Let us not be weary in well doing Galatians 6:9, in the church, those that believed were together and had all things together Acts 2:44-45.

CONCLUSION: You will only be remembered for what you have done for God and when you get to heaven you shall enjoy the life of service for our master.
