You will be made rich in every way so that you can be generous on every occasion, and through us your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God. — 2 Corinthians 9:11
As we examine our blessings and give thanks to God for his wonderful grace, let's ask why God has blessed us so much. Let's also remember the primary spiritual principle that God made clear in today's Scripture and also in his call to Abraham in Genesis 12:2: God's people are blessed to be a blessing. Let's make sure we are not just recipients of God's blessings. Let's commit to be conduits of those blessings to others.
Maturity
1 Corinthians 3:1
Brothers and sisters, I could not address you as people who live by the Spirit but as people who are still worldly —mere infants in Christ.
Self-Centeredness
John 3:30
He must become greater; I must become less.”
Justice
Romans 4:8
Blessed is the one
whose sin the Lord will never count against them.”
God -Knowledge of:
John 10:14
“I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep and my sheep know me—
Ephesians 3:19
and to know this love that surpasses knowledge —that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.
Romans 1:20
For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.
