TOPIC: WAYS GOD BLESSES A MAN (RICHES)

BIBLE TEXT: Deut 8:10-18; Gen 26:1-3,12-14
Deuteronomy 8:10-18
[10]When thou hast eaten and art full, then thou shalt bless the LORD thy God for the good land which he hath given thee.
[11]Beware that thou forget not the LORD thy God, in not keeping his commandments, and his judgments, and his statutes, which I command thee this day:
[12]Lest when thou hast eaten and art full, and hast built goodly houses, and dwelt therein;
[13]And when thy herds and thy flocks multiply, and thy silver and thy gold is multiplied, and all that thou hast is multiplied;
[14]Then thine heart be lifted up, and thou forget the LORD thy God, which brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage;
[15]Who led thee through that great and terrible wilderness, wherein were fiery serpents, and scorpions, and drought, where there was no water; who brought thee forth water out of the rock of flint;
[16]Who fed thee in the wilderness with manna, which thy fathers knew not, that he might humble thee, and that he might prove thee, to do thee good at thy latter end;
[17]And thou say in thine heart, My power and the might of mine hand hath gotten me this wealth.
[18]But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day.

Genesis 26:1-3,12-14
[1]And there was a famine in the land, beside the first famine that was in the days of Abraham. And Isaac went unto Abimelech king of the Philistines unto Gerar.
[2]And the LORD appeared unto him, and said, Go not down into Egypt; dwell in the land which I shall tell thee of:
[3]Sojourn in this land, and I will be with thee, and will bless thee; for unto thee, and unto thy seed, I will give all these countries, and I will perform the oath which I sware unto Abraham thy father;
[12]Then Isaac sowed in that land, and received in the same year an hundredfold: and the LORD blessed him.
[13]And the man waxed great, and went forward, and grew until he became very great:
[14]For he had possession of flocks, and possession of herds, and great store of servants: and the Philistines envied him.

HYMN FOR TODAY: I am pressing on the upward way

MEMORY VERSE: But my God shall supply all my needs according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus

LESSON AIM: At the end of the study, teens should Know that riches are blessings from God.

CENTRAL TRUTH: God gives power to make wealth and be rich.

INTRODUCTION: God didn’t create man to suffer One of God’s packages of blessing is riches/wealth. It is the plan of God that his children lend to nations and not borrow. Teenagers should understand that riches are not needed in heaven. Many have been deceived into thinking that living in financial poverty is holy and pleasing to God. This is not true as riches are meant to be used and enjoyed on earth. That is why we must use what we have to glorify God’s Name. Daddy G.O. once said “I have been both rich and poor —- and I like rich better. It gives God glory when we live out His will on the earth as it is in heaven

STUDY GUIDE
A. Teenagers should note these in relation to riches:

  • God’s intention – Deut 28:12
  • Riches are integral part of God’s blessings.
  • Riches come from God through His power – Deut 8:18
  • God’s blessings come with conditions – Deut 28:1, Psalm 1:1-3
  • When you give, you receive – Luke 6:38
  • Those God blesses, fear God and run from sin – Psalm 1:1-3
  • Jesus was made poor, that we may become rich – 2 Cor 8:9
  • All these point to the fact that God is interested in the riches of His children.

B. Who is the giver of these blessings?
God is the ultimate giver. James 1: 17 – “Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights,
with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning”

C. Discuss the different issues that will make teenagers not to enjoy the blessings of God and His riches.

ACTIVITY: Tell them to list the kind of riches that can develop wings and fly.

Life Application: Follow God’s principles about riches and you shall be richly blessed.

CONCLUSION: Any riches not from God do not last and can develop wings and fly Prov. 23:5. Anyone who lacks blessings from God cannot sustain riches.
