Financial Freedom: Based on Crown Ministries materialsVector Consultants
In the Bible, Jesus had more to say about money than about heaven and hell. Nearly half of Jesus' parables are about possessions. There are over 23,250 scripture references.
The document discusses the importance and blessings of observing the Sabbath or Shabbat. It explains that God instituted the Sabbath as a day of rest after creating the world in six days. Keeping the Sabbath is one of the Ten Commandments. The document outlines traditional Jewish practices for welcoming the Sabbath, including lighting candles and saying blessings over wine and bread. It encourages taking time to rest and enjoy God's blessings on the Sabbath.
The document discusses the keys of prayer, faith, and obedience in hearing God's voice.

Obedience to God by following His commands makes it easier to believe and trust Him. The document provides five ways to practice hearing God's voice: setting aside daily quiet time, being still, not demanding answers from God, expecting to hear from Him, and being aware of messages from angels.
The document discusses Jesus' teachings about the dangers of wealth and materialism, citing stories of the rich young ruler and the rich fool to illustrate how money can become an idol that distracts from God. It also provides characteristics of millionaires, noting that true wealth is created through spending less than one earns and investing the difference over the long run rather than pursuing quick riches.
This document provides financial principles for building wealth based on biblical teachings. It recommends saving 10% of monthly income, investing 10%, and spending 10% on personal and family development. The remaining 70% should go toward bills, debt repayment, and living expenses.

The document also discusses getting a mentor and developing skills to increase your income capacity over time. Overall, it promotes disciplined saving and investing according to biblical financial principles to achieve long-term financial freedom and prosperity.

The document discusses the biblical concept of faithfulness as a fruit of the Spirit. It defines faithfulness as being rooted in God's unending love, mercy, and covenant loyalty. God's faithfulness is seen in his keeping of promises, bringing triumph to sufferers, forgiving confessed sins, and helping with temptation. For humans, faithfulness means being devoted to God rather than money and keeping one's word even if it causes personal harm. The document urges measuring God's faithfulness by his promises rather than one's circumstances.
Spiritual maturity is an important goal for believers to progress toward. It involves a desire to grow, nourishment through studying God's word regularly, and exercise through consistently applying biblical principles. Reaching maturity takes time and patience - believers should not expect to grow overnight or become discouraged by mistakes and rebukes along the journey. Maintaining hunger for righteousness, feeding daily on scripture, and regularly practicing faith are key steps to advancing toward spiritual maturity.
New teastament giving v.tithing, master, ppt, 5 22-14 Paul Hansen
This document discusses tithing and giving in the New Testament compared to the Old Testament. It makes the following key points:
1. The New Testament does not command tithing for the church as the Old Testament did for Israel under Mosaic law. While giving is encouraged, it is not specified as a percentage or amount.
2. Extra-biblical teachings on tithing as a command go beyond what is clearly taught in scripture. Tithing applied specifically to agricultural produce in Israel, not all forms of income.
3. Following only what is clearly taught in scripture ensures obedience to God, while traditions and interpretations by men can lead to error if not grounded in the Bible.
Saving money is encouraged in the Bible for future needs. Saving honors God by valuing money as his gift and allowing one to help others in need. Debt is seen as bondage, so spending less than one earns and investing wisely are principles to make money grow over time. Giving to charity also yields high returns. The passage uses Hezekiah as an example of prospering by serving God with all his heart in everything he did.
Aram murdered a man and buried his body in a river, but a strong wind uncovered the corpse. Overcome with guilt, Aram wept at the scene, realizing his secret could no longer be kept even if buried deep under land or sea. Secret sins tend to lead to more sins and can become habitual or addictive, potentially causing people to be lost. While secret sins should be confessed only to God, open confession is required for obvious sins. Secret sins can endanger spiritual growth if not controlled.
Sermon Slide Deck: "The Mission of Jesus" (Luke 19:1-10)New City Church
The mission of Jesus is to seek and to save the lost.
This message was given on January 8, 2017 at New City Church in Calgary by Pastor John Ferguson. For more info, please visit: www.newcitychurch.ca.
The document is a sermon that argues the Lord demands total commitment from his followers. It provides numerous Bible verses showing Jesus requires disciples to deny themselves, take up their cross, and follow him above all else. The sermon warns that half-hearted commitment is not enough and that Christians must surrender all things to serve the Lord fully.
1) David served God's purpose in his generation by working humbly as a shepherd, fighting bravely against enemies of Israel like Goliath, waiting patiently for God to fulfill his promise of kingship, and leaving a godly legacy through his writings in the book of Psalms.
2) All Christians should seek to understand God's unique purpose and plan for their lives and serve Him faithfully in both their daily choices and through helping others learn about the gospel.
3) While God forgives sins, disobedience still has consequences; David's life provides an example of both God's forgiveness and the repercussions of wrongdoing.

The document discusses several ways that God speaks to believers, including through the Bible, the Holy Spirit, circumstances/timing, other people's lives, actual voices, and more. It emphasizes that hearing God is a learned skill that requires humility and choosing to listen for God's voice in various ways he may reveal himself. Believers must be attentive and obedient to fully hear what God is saying.

In the new life we are transformed by the renewing of our minds. In the new life we are renewed by the Holy Spirit. In the new life we are dead to sin but alive to God. In the new life we are washed from our sins. in the new life we put to death the old man and put on the new man. In the new life we died and our life is hidden with Christ in God. In the new life we were brought back from death in sin.

How God Uses Money to Shape Us: ResponsibilityPacific Church
The document discusses biblical principles of financial responsibility, including honoring God with one's wealth, paying bills promptly, budgeting, diligence, and saving. It outlines five main responsibilities: 1) Honor God with how money is used. 2) Pay bills promptly to provide for family. 3) Budget carefully as riches do not last. 4) Be diligent through hard work and avoiding laziness. 5) Save little by little for future needs as the prudent ant does.

Money is not the most important thing in lifeSenghour Touch
True friendship, family, and health are more important than money according to the document. It argues that true friends are defined by reliability, honesty and helpfulness rather than money. Family provides happiness that is worth more than wealth, as people often forget family time due to focusing on money. Finally, while money is significant, health is more crucial and money means nothing without good health.
Is it more money what really improves our motivation? Does higher salary make me more happy? If not, what then...? This presentation summarizes in a popular way the state of art of motivation and happiness research.
1. While more money can increase happiness up to a point, continual increases in income do little to further boost happiness over time. People quickly adapt to their new financial circumstances.
2. Money can potentially lead to more stress through increased responsibilities and social comparisons with similar others.
3. Research finds that spending money on life experiences rather than material goods tends to bring more lasting happiness. Actively making the most of one's experiences enhances well-being.
This document discusses the evolution of money through four stages: commodities like metals used as early forms of money; the invention of paper money regulated by central banks; the emergence of credit money through bank deposits and checks; and modern currencies like the US dollar, euro, Japanese yen, and British pound sterling.

The document recommends estimating income and expenses, planning for savings and emergencies, and using the envelope system to manage spending categories.
This document outlines principles of Christian finance according to scripture. It discusses that (1) everything belongs to God and we are merely stewards of what He has given us. It also notes that (2) it is God who enables us to acquire wealth through His blessings. Finally, the document provides tips for financial stability including increasing income sources through work or passive income and decreasing expenses through simplifying lifestyle and saving regularly.
This document discusses Christian principles for handling finances. It suggests that how we earn, spend, and share money reveals our spiritual priorities and whether we love God or the world. The document encourages working hard, spending wisely on necessities, saving, and giving generously through the church. It emphasizes trusting God to provide for our needs and not worrying about the future. Our faithfulness in small financial matters determines what spiritual riches God will entrust to us.
This document discusses the principle of tithing and its benefits. It argues that tithing opens one up to greater prosperity and abundance by aligning with universal spiritual laws. Regularly giving 10% of one's income is suggested to see tangible returns in unexpected financial windfalls and opportunities. Personal stories are shared of people who experienced miraculous results, such as unexpected job offers or discounts, after committing to tithing. The overall message is that tithing is an ancient spiritual principle that still works today to bless those who practice it with wealth and fulfillment.

The document provides guidance on properly using monetary treasures or wealth that God has entrusted to people. It discusses tithing, or giving 10% of one's earnings to God and the church. While some people claim they cannot afford to tithe or that tithing was just for Israel, the document argues that tithing was practiced before Mosaic law and that one cannot outgive God; by faithfully returning treasures to God, God will provide for all needs.
This document is an excerpt from a book about prosperity and financial increase from God. It discusses how God's plan is for believers to prosper according to Jeremiah 29:11. It argues that prosperity, like healing, is part of the redemption package that Christ purchased. The missing ingredient for many believers experiencing lack of money is a lack of faith that prosperity is God's will. One's destiny as a believer is prosperity, as God has predetermined and assigned increase. God gives power to get wealth in order to establish His covenant/contract with believers.
The document discusses how many people do not receive financial harvests despite giving for years. It explores 31 possible reasons for this, including that some do not truly believe God wants them to prosper, do not respect money, never ask for specific financial blessings, rely on their own abilities instead of God, are unwilling to learn from mentors, refuse to obey basic biblical principles, and more. The author aims to help people understand why financial prosperity is part of God's plan by sharing principles from their own journey and teachings from the Bible.

A375 Example Taste the taste of the Lord, the taste of the Lord The taste of...franktsao4
It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375

The Hope of Salvation - Jude 1:24-25 - MessageCole Hartman
Jude gives us hope at the end of a dark letter. In a dark world like today, we need the light of Christ to shine brighter and brighter. Jude shows us where to fix our focus so we can be filled with God's goodness and glory. Join us to explore this incredible passage.
The Book of Ruth is included in the third division, or the Writings, of the Hebrew Bible. In most Christian canons it is treated as one of the historical books and placed between Judges and 1 Samuel.
2. Do you have savings?
How much do you have in your savings
account in number of monthly income?
Do invest your money regularly?
What percentage of your monthly income do
you invest?
If 5 machines produce 5 widgets in 5 mins.
How long will it take 100 machines to
produce 100 widgets?
3. Any worker who follows Biblical principles for
making wealth can experience financial
freedom and have more than enough for
themselves, regardless of their starting
income! It’s not too late to start if you are still
a worker today!
4. If you save $100 every month and invest in a
10% interest rate compounded annually after
30 yrs you have – over $200,000.
5. 10% - God First –Tithe (Well after the tax
man)
10% - Investment –There is a way to even
beat the tax man with this
10% - Personal Development and family and
friends
70% - Bills, Debt repayment, and other living
expenses
6. Malachi 3:8 – 12 (Tithe Means – a tenth,
offerings are the gifts you bring after your
tithes)
Lev 27:30 – the 1st 10% belongs to the Lord
Gen 14:20 – the first tithe
Deut 14 –We partake of the tithes
7. 8 "Will a man rob God?Yet you have robbed Me! But
you say,`In what way have we robbedYou?' In tithes
and offerings. 9You are cursed with a curse, For you
have robbed Me, Even this whole nation. 10 Bring all
the tithes into the storehouse,That there may be food
in My house, And try Me now in this," Says the LORD
of hosts, "If I will not open for you the windows of
heaven And pour out for you such blessingThat there
will not be room enough to receive it. 11 "And I will
rebuke the devourer for your sakes, So that he will not
destroy the fruit of your ground, Nor shall the vine fail
to bear fruit for you in the field," Says the LORD of
hosts; (Mal 3:8-11 NKJ)
8. 30 `And all the tithe of the land, whether of the
seed of the land or of the fruit of the tree, is the
LORD'S. It is holy to the LORD. (Lev 27:30 NKJ)
9. TheTithe is God’s way of teaching us how to walk in
the supernatural blessing of God
It should not become a religious activity – It should be
an expression of love and wisdom
It is designed to remind you of the source of your
income not to burden you with another bill
It is designed to build your faith in God as a constant
provider
It is designed to practically involve God in the
execution of your financial plan and battle against
waste.
It is the minimum you should do – 100% really belongs
to the Lord!
10. This 10% is suggestion – the more you want
to have, the more of this you do.
You don’t have to start with 10% , you can
start with 5 but get to 10% as quickly as you
can.The younger people should start right at
10.
This is your physical seed!This is what gets
blessed as you tithe!
Tithing without investments is - eating your
seed!
11. 12 Then Isaac sowed in that land, and reaped
in the same year a hundredfold; and the
LORD blessed him. 13 The man began to
prosper, and continued prospering until he
became very prosperous; 14 for he had
possessions of flocks and possessions of
herds and a great number of servants. So the
Philistines envied him. (Gen 26:12-14 NKJ)
12. Your value is not in the amount of stuff you
have. It is in the value God places on you.
Christ in you is you hope and your security
Sin continues to seek to trap – Freedom is
only in Christ Jesus.
If you are not sure that your place is secured
in heaven through Christ, don’t leave today
without making things right with God.
13. The best gift you can give to your family,
friends and community is an increased
capacity to help. It’s is unwise to ever stop
learning.
Discipleship is all about learning from
someone or a group of people who are doing
what you sense you should be doing. It’s all
round learning!

16. Gifts – Birthday, Christmas,Wedding, Baby

Help with life situations
Just because….
I will suggest you make this section 5% for
personal Development and 5% for Family and
Friends. It is important to give to Family and
Friends because God’s love in you calls for it.
17. Your real income is only 70% of the money
you see on your pay cheque.Work with that
only.
Try to fit all your expenses into this 70% and
your goal should be to keep reducing this
every year as much as possible and increase
others.
19. Try to automate the 10:10:10
Continue to envision your growth goals and
ask God to help you increase your capacity to
be a blessing
Listen to the Holy Spirit before deviating
from the principle – don’t be rigid, God
always has a better plan.
There is nothing wrong with a 10:20:20:50
lifestyle
20. What if 70% is not enough?Work with your
mentor to make it work.There is a way,
maybe you just cant see it.
What if I don’t have a mentor that I respect
and am willing to work with –Well now you
know why….
How do I get a mentor? –The best place to
start is your Lifegroup.
21. You have received a great potential from God
– Use it.
God expects you to multiply your resources
and increase your capacity to influence your
community
Vs 26 –You wicked and Lazy servant
If I do not have a workable plan to increase
my capacity and multiply my resources, I am
being a wicked and lazy servant.
