If I could only have ______, I’d be happy and fulfilled.” How would you have answered that question before hearing this week’s message? Has your thinking changed since then? If so, how?
??😙
Remember, we are not following Christ to be rich, but to inherit His kingdom. If God has blessed you with much, keep giving without holding back. No need to build bigger barns.
Amen!! 🤗
💯💯💯
No need to pursue wealth endlessly. There are more important things than wealth. Wealth is good, if used with prudence. I am richer than the richest person I know.
I wouldn't be where iam today if it wasn't for God's Mercy & Grace Amen 🙏🏽❤

I tithe obediently and I tested God and He did miracles for me when I literally had nothing! I just can’t afford not to tithe! However this message just encouraged me to do more and bless the Lord by giving offerings now aside from my tithes!! Hallelujah!
This is truth. Love this. Real preacher.
Amen.

Watching this in the UK. Thanks a ton for sharing!
Glad you were able to join us!! Have a blessed week.😊
Giving should be like breathing for God's children. If you want to be really generous, share the Gospel without discrimination.
🔥♥️Yes! Generous is part of our identity in Christ!

Tithing changed my life ❤
🤗
How did it change your life
@@kelliered4530 the more I give from my heart the more my family is blessed.
Great Message. I finally got a hold of giving a long time ago. I have been Blessed. I don't anyone anything. I Thank God for what He Blessed me with. It is all about Tithing.☝️
It's all about sacrifice.
Monday morning is south africa 🇿🇦 and what a way to begin a week amen. 🙌 this has truly hit home with me. Thank you for this powerful message
Thank you, for this message!!!
Of course! Thank you for joining us!
Wow thank you! So cool, love it!! I have experienced this every time I give God first and even more than just 10 percent! It’s awesome and I can’t win in giving more than God!! Haha
I am willing to cust God with my tide
If I could only have peace I'd be happy and fulfilled. 😊
I can really attest of putting God first most specially in tithing. I am blessed to be told the truth about honoring God first even before I started working. From that time on, I know all of mine is not my own and being generous will flow naturally. Praise God for He loves us first. Thanks Lifechurch.
Wow! Thanks for sharing, Jennifer! 🔥🙌♥️
Wow! Thank you, Pastor Chris!
Exactly, Kristy!

Be Blessed!
We bring it to God because it belongs to him. He gifted us our money and possessions because it was always his. It was never ours to begin with. Glory to God ❤️❤️
🙌🙌🙌
Money don't make a person happy. My family with the joy of God is rich. King Jesus!!
oh idk thanks sooooooo much u guys are helping me so much GOD BLESS U ALL
God bless you, Lidya!
I’m saying YES! More than anything I’ve been wanting to go on a vacation. I put aside a big chunk of money to go but He’s stirring me up to GIVE it back. Jesus forgive me for being self centered and forgetting that YOU are the owner of it all. 🙏🏻
🙌🙌🙌
God sees everything and if people think they can calculate generosity by a simple tithe calculation, they are shortsighted. What a person gives up and what a person spends are opposite sides of different equations.
Very blessed channel, keep them coming, very good

Money is a necessity while we are living on earth,to buy food,cloths,meds,etc it is not a source of true happiness,it is not a question of how much money we need to be happy but how much happiness do we need in life...true happiness is...psalm 1:2
🙌♥️🙌
I don't need money most days. I'm already happy. Human beings think they need a lot of money but continue to make bad choices.
May God bless us for name of The Jesus Christ Amen 🙏✨🌈🙏🇧🇩🙏🌎🙏💞💞❤️🙏
I am fulfilled and glad inside of me because I found the God completed my missing piece inside of me. I am found with the fire of love of the inside. Glory be to God for this Word it's a reminder for me to not be possess by the material possessions on earth or not be overwhelmed much of the things that is given from the Almighty God coz maybe you might be greedy and chasing more possessions and not asking God's counsel.
So glad you, @oceane marie fauchez, are here! Thanks for sharing.

Can someone give there first earnings towards someone less fortunate instead of there church and still receive blessings?
I think so. Thats what i do
I absolutely do. I tythe to both my church and also to other needy people in the Philippines. Our pastor actually encourages it!
@@twirlykaa2222 completely agree
That's a great question! Pastor Chris explains in this message that we believe that God's "storehouse" in the Old Testament is best represented by the New Testament church. You can see in the book of Acts that they were able to support the needy in their community through the church. I want the people in need who I may support to connect the blessing with God not from me. So giving through my church is a great way to do that. I can't speak for all local churches, but I know Life.Church gives millions of dollars each year to support people in need all over the world and in the communities where we have a church location. My family gives because we want to be a blessing to others, but I want God and the church to get all the credit in my community. Hope that helps! 🙂

invest time on things that have eternal value
Yes, such a good reminder!
God sees everything and if people think they can calculate generosity by a simple tithe calculation, they are shortsighted. What a person gives up and what a person spends are opposite sides of different equations.
Oh for sure! God looks on our heart! He wants us to give cheerfully. I just want my starting place to be at least what His law has required since before Moses' law was even in place! ♥️Thanks for engaging with us, firstbornjordan!

Genisis 2:3 the sabbath is the 7th day is it not?
Should the Gospel be about being rich or about being saved by faith in Christ Jesus who died for our sins?
Glad you, Ajayi, are here!
The Gospel is the Good News (and the Best news) of sharing God’s Gift of Jesus! For some that might be sharing thru conversation, and for others that might be sharing thru giving resources. All are precious in God’s sight. We are stewards of what God gives us.
“To those who use well what they are given, even more will be given, and they will have an abundance. But from those who do nothing, even what little they have will be taken away.”
Matthew 25:29 NLT
“Whoever finds God, finds life!”

God's good news is for sure about being saved by faith and then living a life following Jesus' example. For many people however, their financial decisions keep them from living the generous example Jesus showed us. So we preach about this on occasion to help people find freedom from debt.

This was an inspiring presentation. I was blessed. According to Genesis 2: 2, the Sabbath is the seventh day and not the first day. The seventh day is Saturday. The Catholic Church says that they have changed the solemnity of the Sabbath to Sunday. Bear in mind that no man can change God's laws however, many have followed the Catholic church by doing this and many are unaware or do know and have numbed their conscience. If they say not according to the law and to the testimony, there's no light in them (Isaiah 8: 19-20). Thanks for the insight on how we should view our money.
Thanks, Catherina, for sharing with us.

I'm getting a little nervous that life church is edging towards prosperity gospel,I hope I'm wrong.
Hey, A son of God! Life.Church believes that God wants us to be good stewards of the money, time, and resources He's given us. None of us are promised riches or and easy life, but we can all serve the people around us with what we do have.
I'm rich because my God is rich
🙌🔥🙌
Pastor i must say, you look like the american version of Gerald Butler, you even sound like him....
Ha, we will make sure Pastor Chris hears that!
Most but not all preacher has far far more money than their nornal members and yet theyr still accepting money from the very poorest of their members..to the preachers,my question is how much money do you have or how rich you are now comparing to the time you where just started preaching?
Hi Ronaldo! I'm so glad you've engaged with us here! I can understand the perspective you're sharing. I'm sure there is always more each of us can do for the poor around us. In my 20 years attending Life.Church, I have seem Pastor Chris, and many of our other pastors, live extremely generous lives. In the same way Pastor Chris talks about how his income slowly rose over time, he has also increased his giving over time. We're thankful to have him lead by example to our most generous givers. ♥️

Luke 12:15 man's life consistent not in the abundances that he posseseth,,,lazarus is so poor when he eats only the food fell on the floor of the rich man,and jesus christ cried when lazarus died...serving God and obeying his commandments doesnt necessarily mean you will be blessed with a lot of money and wealth in this life...
That's so true Ronaldo! Our treasure will always be in heaven!♥️

Well, the bible doesn't say that Malachi 3 is a pendant to today's local church. Why would God keep 1 of the 613 laws and 10 commandments but not the rest?
I love Life Church, don't get me wrong. But this is false teaching. The new testament talks nowhere about the 10%
Tithing is important, but it's nowhere said that is has to be the local church.

Tithings or 10% is not a law in christian era anymore....10% was a law to the levites,hebrew 7:5
Matthew 23:23 ....these you ought to have done, without leaving the others undone.
What does this verse is trying to say?
@@karenhenderson5726 is this about tithings of 10%
I agree that I don't consider it a law. Just like Jesus said in other places, the way we live should surpass the letter of the law (like with lust and purity). Ten percent it a great way to make a clear distinction of putting God first in our finances. Lots of room to grow from there! ♥️😊
