11/30/14 - MASTERING YOUR MONEY - PART 2


MASTERING YOUR MONEY II

God’s Plan for Your Money

What does God want me to Have?

I.                    ENOUGH TO LIVE

 

1.      Daily Bread

Matthew 6:9-11

In this manner, therefore, pray: Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name 10 Your kingdom come. Your will be done On earth as it is in heaven. 11 Give us this day our daily bread.

 

2.      No Thought

Matthew 6:25-34

25 “Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? 26 Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? 27 Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?

28 “So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; 29 and yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. 30 Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?

31 “Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32 For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. 33 But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. 34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.

 

 

 

II.                  ENOUGH TO BE PREPARED

Proverbs 6:6-8

6 Go to the ant, you sluggard! Consider her ways and be wise, 7 Which, having no captain, Overseer or ruler, 8 Provides her supplies in the summer, And gathers her food in the harvest. How long will you slumber, O sluggard? When will you rise from your sleep? 10 A little sleep, a little slumber A little folding of the hands to sleep— 11 So shall your poverty come on you like a prowler, And your need like an armed man.

 

Proverbs 21:20

20 There is desirable treasure, And oil in the dwelling of the wise, But a foolish man squanders it.

 

Genesis 41:35-36

35 And let them gather all the food of those good years that are coming, and store up grain under the authority of Pharaoh, and let them keep food in the cities. 36 Then that food shall be as a reserve for the land for the seven years of famine which shall be in the land of Egypt, that the land may not perish during the famine.”

 

Luke 19:8

 Then Zacchaeus stood and said to the Lord, “Look, Lord, I give half of my goods to the poor; and if I have taken anything from anyone by false accusation, I restore fourfold.”

 

III.               ENOUGH TO GIVE

Acts 20:35

“…It is more blessed to give than to receive.”

 

Deut 8:18

18 “And you shall remember the Lord your God, for it is He who gives you power to get wealth, that He may establish His covenant which He swore to your fathers, as it is this day.

 

James 2:15-16

15 If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food, 16 and one of you says to them, “Depart in peace, be warmed and filled,” but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does it profit?

 

1 Cor. 16:2

On the first day of the week let each one of you lay something aside, storing up as he may prosper, that there be no collections when I come.

 

 

IV.               ENOUGH TO ENJOY

 

1 Tim 6:17

17 Command those who are rich in this present age not to be haughty, nor to trust in uncertain riches but in the living God, who gives us richly all things to enjoy.

 

Genesis 3:6

So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree desirable to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate. She also gave to her husband with her, and he ate.

 

2 Sam 12:8

I gave you your master’s house and your master’s wives into your keeping, and gave you the house of Israel and Judah. And if that had been too little, I also would have given you much more!

 

V.                  ENOUGH TO LEAVE

Prov 13:22

22 A good man leaves an inheritance to his children’s children, But the wealth of the sinner is stored up for the righteous.

 

Numbers 27:9-11

If he has no daughter, then you shall give his inheritance to his brothers. 10 If he has no brothers, then you shall give his inheritance to his father’s brothers. 11 And if his father has no brothers, then you shall give his inheritance to the relative closest to him in his family, and he shall possess it.’ ” And it shall be to the children of Israel a statute of judgment, just as the Lord commanded Moses.

 

Exodus 3:6

Moreover He said, “I am the God of your father—the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.” And Moses hid his face, for he was afraid to look upon God.
