Malachi 3:10 Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this," says the LORD Almighty, "and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that you will not have room enough for it. NIV   
Proverbs 3:9-10   9 Honor the LORD with your wealth, with the firstfruits of all your crops; 10 then your barns will be filled to overflowing, and your vats will brim over with new wine. NIV   
Proverbs 19:17 He who is kind to the poor lends to the LORD, and he will reward him for what he has done. NIV   
2 Corinthians 9:7,11 NIV   
7 Each man should give what he has decided in his heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. 11 You will be made rich in every way so that you can be generous on every occasion, and through us your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God.

Giving!

We had a wonderful time in worship with James Ponak, who came all the way from Chilliwack to serve us by leading the worship. 
​We prayed for Duncan & Maureen who are on their way to serve at Haggai International for some 3 months.
Pastor Dwayne gave teaching on giving which includes finances. He was so motivated to do the teaching that he forgot to make time for the offering! ☺

Levers & Finances

3/11/2018

0 Comments

 
"Why we do what we do" and "What works?" are the themes of this series. Today's topic was Levers & Finances, still looking at "Put God first" as the lever in life. Pastor Dwayne brought a crowbar to demonstrate.  Please note that this was not a message to motivate people via guilt to give more money.  God is very good to us.
We said bye to Tiz who visited Keremeos for a number of months.

Matthew 6: NIV    33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. 25 "Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? 28 "And why do you worry about clothes? See how the lilies of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. 34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.

Today Lael had her first experience of leading our worship with the help of the Boshoffs. Thank you! 
​We celebrated the Lord's Supper, lead by Marina (with a hoarse voice) and Ferdi.
Pastor Dwayne continued the series on "Why we do what we do" by giving principles and laws that work.  He gave a demonstration of a lever. He elaborated on worship and "Putting God first".

The feast in the kingdom of God 
Luke 22:15-16   15 Jesus said, "I have looked forward to this hour with deep longing, anxious to eat this Passover meal with you before my suffering begins. 16 For I tell you now that I won't eat it again until it comes to fulfillment in the Kingdom of God." NLT   
Luke 14:15 ... he said to Jesus, "Blessed is the man who will eat at the feast in the kingdom of God." 

Psalms 23:5 You prepare a feast for me in the presence of my enemies. You welcome me as a guest, anointing my head with oil. My cup overflows with blessings.  NLT
Why we do what we do
Exodus 29:42 "For the generations to come this burnt offering is to be made regularly at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting before the LORD. There I will meet you and speak to you; NIV   
Romans 12:1 Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God - this is your spiritual act of worship. 
Psalms 141:2 May my prayer be set before you like incense; may the lifting up of my hands be like the evening sacrifice. NIV

Exodus 13:2,12-13 NIV    2 "Consecrate to me every firstborn male. The first offspring of every womb among the Israelites belongs to me, whether man or animal." 12 you are to give over to the LORD the first offspring of every womb.
