Sermon:The Grace Of Giving-Part 1

Supernatural Giving And Supernatural Receiving

Introduction: A New Method Of Operation. We can't get His results doing it our way.

We are going to look at how did Jesus give and how did He receive.

What Is Grace?
"Grace is God's ability to produce results"

Bishop Butler
"The grace of God is the anointing. The anointing is the power of God to do whatever God's says regardless of your ability or inability "

"The grace of God is the manifestation of the power of God"

Can Grace Effect Your Finances?

Luke 21:1-4 (CWSB)
The Widow’s Offering (Mark 12:41-44)
1 And he looked up, and saw the rich men casting their gifts into the treasury.
2 And he saw also a certain poor widow casting in thither two mites.
3 And he said, Of a truth I say unto you, that this poor widow hath cast in more than they all:
4 For all these have of their abundance cast in unto the offerings of God: but she of her penury hath cast in all the living that she had.

Mite, a small brass coin, worth about a 1/5 of a cent.

Luke 21:4 (Wuest - The New Testament: An Expanded Translation)
4 for all these out of their superfluous funds threw in their gifts, but she herself, out of that which she possessed and which did not meet her need in the necessities of life, threw in all that she had with which to sustain life.

Luke 21:4 (MSG)
4 All these others made offerings that they'll never miss; she gave extravagantly what she couldn't afford—she gave her all!"

* What did her actions demonstrate?
* What are your actions demonstrating?
* "You should never eat more than what you sow." - Creflo Dollar "Unmasking the Spirit of Mammon"


Doing The Works Of Jesus

John 14:10-12 (CWSB)
10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father -- in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.
11 Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works’ sake.
12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.

Jesus Was A Giver

Acts 10:38 (CWSB)
38 How God anointed -- Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.

(Rick Renner Sparkling Gems In The Greek 2)
The words “doing good” in Acts 10: 38 is a translation of the Greek word euergeteo, an old word that denotes a benefactor; a philanthropist; one who financially supports charitable works; or a person who uses his financial resources to meet the needs of disadvantaged people. This word was used only to portray the provision of food, clothes, or some other commodity to meet a physical or material need.

Jesus Had Partners

Jesus had a group of very wealthy women and "many others" who supported His ministry.

Luke 8:1-3 (CWSB)
1 And it came to pass afterward, that he went throughout every city and village, preaching and showing the glad tidings of the kingdom of God: and the twelve were with him,
2 And certain women, which had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary called Magdalene, out of whom went seven devils,
3 And Joanna the wife of Chuza Herod’s steward, and Susanna, and many others, which ministered unto him of their substance.

The Grace to give in action

Pastor Rodney Pearson
"Partnership I give, you give"

John 6:1-13 (CWSB)
Jesus Feeds the Five Thousand (Matt. 14:13-21; Mark -6:30-44; Luke 9:10-17)
1 After these things Jesus went over the sea of Galilee, which is the sea of Tiberias.
2 And a great multitude followed him, because they saw his miracles which he did on them that were diseased.
3 And Jesus went up into a mountain, and there he sat with his disciples.
4 And the passover, a feast of the Jews, was nigh.
5 When Jesus then lifted up his eyes, and saw a great company come unto him, he saith unto Philip, Whence shall we buy bread, that these may eat?
6 And this he said to prove him: for he himself knew what he would do.
7 Philip answered him, Two hundred pennyworth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may take a little.
8 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, saith unto him,
9 There is a lad here, which hath five barley loaves, and two small fishes: but what are they among so many?
10 And Jesus said, Make the men sit down. Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.
11 And Jesus took the loaves; and when he had given thanks, he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to them that were set down; and likewise of the fishes as much as they would.
12 -- When they were filled, he said unto his disciples, Gather up the fragments that remain, that nothing be lost.
13 Therefore they gathered them together, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves, which remained over and above unto them that had eaten.
