    Before He ascended, Jesus gave His disciples what is known as The Great Commission.

    Say the word "prosperity" in some churches, and you might raise some eyebrows. Some try to draw a distinction between God's will for the children of Israel and His will for New Covenant believers when it comes to prosperity, since it's so clearly promised in the Old Testament. But it is Jesus who spoke of abundance. And it is the Holy Spirit, through Paul, who spoke of superabundance! Prosperity -financial prosperity- is not our goal as followers of Christ, but we must be liberated from the notion that not only is it not sinful, it is something God desires for us. Hosted on Acast.

    We might tend to think that there is a stark division between tithing in the Old Testament vs giving in the New Testament, but the Old Testament actually has more to say about giving than about tithing. This shouldn't surprise us because God doesn't change; He valued and rewarded the generous hearts of the Old Testament children of Abraham, and He values and rewards the generous hearts of Abraham's spiritual children of the new covenant.

    As we begin week two or our three-week fast, it can be useful to think about the effects so far. Are you hungry? Are you hungry for something specific? Has your appetite changed, or simply increased? We need to recognize that God has given us appetites, just as He has given us bodies, and that our appetites have been corrupted by the sin nature just as our bodies strain against other manifestations of the curse of sin. Fasting can reveal to us these corruptions and offer us an opportunity to set things right. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
