The Expansion of Our Finances
We’re Asking God to Give Us
More Than Enough!
Read: 2 Corinthians 9:1-15, especially verse 8 …
“God has the power to provide you with MORE THAN ENOUGH of every kind of grace. That way, you will have everything you need always and in everything to provide MORE THAN ENOUGH for every kind of good work.” (2 Corinthians 9:8, CEB)
Believe: As we give to others in their times of need, God promises to provide us with “more than enough.” (God longs to bless His generous children, especially when they IMITATE His character and compassion!)
Ask: So, ask God these three questions and listen throughout your day for His responses:
• Since I’m asking You to expand my finances so that I may expand Your Kingdom, Lord Jesus, will You show me where I’ve been prompted by Your Spirit to give to others (not my Church’s Budget) already but have failed to do so so I can give that money and fulfill Your Will?
• Since I’m asking You to expand my finances so that I may expand Your Kingdom, Lord Jesus, will You show me where I need to increase my generosity and end my selfishness when it comes to giving financially to others (not my Church’s Budget)?
• Since I’m asking You to expand my finances so that I may expand Your Kingdom, Lord Jesus, will You show me how to trust Your MORE THAN ENOUGH response to my generosity to others (not my Church’s Budget)?
Pray: For a God-sized expansion of God’s power and ability over your finances with these words … “You are the Lord my God who can give me the ability to produce wealth (Deuteronomy 8.18). So I cry out to You, God of wealth-building power, EXPAND my finances, show me how to build wealth – not for personal greed but to meet both my needs and the needs of others. My deepest desire is to expand Your goodness into more and more lives for my King Jesus! Increasing my income will allow me to increase my generosity in giving! For Your glory in my story in 2020: Our Year of Expansion!”
Be Specific: Now, pour out your heart to God for the things you are praying and fasting for. as it pertains to your finances, ESPECIALLY asking God to answer the three questions above!
A Year of Expansion!
