He laid down His life for us. And
we also ought to lay
down our lives for the
brethren. 17 But whoever has this
world‟s goods, and sees his
brother in need, and shuts up his
heart from him, how does the
love of God abide in him?

little children, let us not love
in word or in tongue, but in deed
and in truth.

You Cannot Serve God
and Riches

hate the one and love the
other, or else he will be
loyal to the one and
despise the other. You
cannot serve God and
mammon.
50. WE ABIDE IN HIM
• He‟s words abide in us.
• We can ask what we desire.
• And it will be done for us!
• Ask with generosity
51. YOU CAN NEVER GO WRONG ON THIS:
• When you prophesy to someone
that God loves him/her you are
100 % accurate in your prophecy;
because that is the nature of God,
that is what He is, that is what He
does.
52. PROPHESYING IS SIMPLY SPEAKING GOD‟S
HEART OVER A PERSON, OR OVER YOURSELF!
• Tonight, you are prophesying over yourself:
• That God loves you.
• That you love God.
• That you love your neighbor
• That you love yourself
53. REMEMBER TO USE THE RIGHT
GRAMMATICAL TENSE.
•
Time Expressions with Present Perfect
•
When we use the Present Perfect it means that something has happened
at some point in our lives before now. Remember, the exact time the
action happened is not important.
• Time Expressions with Present Perfect
• When we use the Present Perfect it means that something has
happened at some point in our lives before now. Remember, the
exact time the action happened is not important.

actions are possible.
54. WHAT DOES IT MEAN?
• God has loved you before He put the foundations of the
universe!
• He has blessed you since you were in your mothers womb!
• His love is:
• Eternal
unconditional
unlimite
free
• You cannot buy God‟s love.
• You cannot pay for it.
• Why you would try to buy something that you already possess
and that has been giving you by free?
55. NEXT WEEK…
• Next week we will start an Study of
“The Feast of the Lord.”
• Leviticus 23 speaks of the seven Feasts of
the Lord.
• These feast have a prophetical picture for
Israel, for the Church and for our own lives.
