The text · 2Cor 9:11, Phil 4:15-19
  • In this kingdom of God Nothing happens per chance or wishing. And these inchurdes Riches or wealth
  • There are Principles that governs anything you see happen in the kingdom or life
  • There are covenant Practices that perfects your way. Practice makes perfect
  • For example the Bible says that to him that believes ther shall be a performance of those things spoken to him by God. Your Behave determines yor practie and your practice delievers the performance of the promises.
  • So if God said it and you do not believe there cannot be a manifestation or performance of the promises. eg Abraham God said to him i will make you rich- he began to give Isaac.
  • So concerning kingdom Riches. If you do not engage effectively and consistently in the grace of giving do not expect riches. Your giving is the seed that manifests unto riches.
  • Lk 6:38 says "Give and it shall be given unto you good measure, Pressed down and shaken together and running over shall men give unto your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete with all it shall be measured to you again"
  1. Principles of Riches of Exceeding Grace of Giving There are the principles or understanding you must have concerning the grace of giving if it must produce Rcihes or wealth for you. We look 3 Basic Principles today.
  2. Seed precedes Harvest or Giving precedes Receiving
  3. Gen 8:20-22 makes us to understand that seedtiring is before harvest. V.22 "While the earth remaineth Seedtire and harvest and cold and heat and summer and winter and day and night shall not cease.
  4. Phil 4:15 mentioned Giving before Recieving
  5. Even God has to sow Jesus first in order to receive the souls of men back unto him.
  6. Elijah said to the widow go and do mine first. 1Kg 17:8-16 (V.13) e. In Mt 6:33 the Bible said "Seek ye first the kingdom of God and all his righteousness and all these things shall be addes unto you:
  7. So let your giving go fast
  8. It must be a Proposal giving 2Cor 9:7 says "Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not growing or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver".
  9. Meaning that your giving shoulld be from your heart
  10. And the heart must be a clean heart
  11. It must also be a rejoicing or a cheerful heart
  12. Crubling destroys the life in your seed
  13. What purpose must accompany our giving:
  14. Purpose of glorifying God
  15. Purpose of personal obedience to God and his word.
  16. The purpose of your Riches/Wealth. That is to deal with the spirit and manifestation of poverty in any areas of your Life.
  17. Quality and Quantity are relevant in Christian giving
  18. This is important if you must enter into the riches of exceeding grace.
  19. In 2Cor 9:6 the Bible said "But this i say, he which soweth sparingly shall reap sparingly and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully"
  20. You make your bounty before hand 2Cor 9:5
  21. Also correct giving is a matter of bounty 2Cor 9:5
  22. 1Cor 16:2 says your giving should be as God has prospered or blessed you.
  23. Quality and quantity are measured in referene as God has blessed you. For example- The widows mite Lk 21:1-3, Cain Gen 4:4-7
  24. To get good quantity your giving must be a planned giving and not accidental. 1Cor 16:2
  25. Practices that enhance or produce the Riches of Exceeding Grace
  26. Consistency
  27. We must give consistently in order to breakthrough into rules.
  28. In Phil 4:16 Paul said "For even in Thessalonia ye sent once and again unto my necessity. Not because i desire a gift, but i desire fruit that may abound to your account.
  29. When you give again and again your account will increase.
  30. Your giving like depositing or investing in a bank. The more you do it the better for you. e. Consistency also is an expression of your faith in what you are doing.
  31. Please note that it isnot just one giving that wiil bring you your desired level of riches.
  32. In Gal 6:9 the Bible said "And let us not be wary in well doing for in due season we shall reap if we faint not." Gal 6:7-10, 2Thess 3:13
  33. (Scope) Coverage

  48. It is not everything you see you must get at all cost
  49. You must bring discipline into your life when it comes to spending especially on yourself.
  50. James 4:3 said "Ye ask and receive not because ye ask amiss that ye may consume it upon your lusts"
  51. Do not be consumer but an investor and you will increase in riches and wealth.

  • The revelation of this grace in our heart by the Holy spirit will enpower us to overcome the spirit Power and manifestations of poverty. 1Pet 1:13
  • Please know that God has pleasure in your prosperity.
  • God is pleased when you are a faithful Steward of his manifold grace
