Concerning What You Need

Henry Schorr
October 19, 2014

#[Philippians 4:19]; [Romans 12:1-2]; [1 Timothy 2:4]; [2 Corinthians 9:11]; [Psalm 49:16]; [1 Corinthians 3:9] Henry discusses the question of whether God will meet our needs if we are generous. He shares the testimony of "Mo," whose life was transformed by missionaries in Turkey. Henry argues that God calls believers to work together with Him to bring heaven to earth through generosity, which makes the invisible Christ visible. He emphasizes that while token generosity is common, sacrificial generosity is not natural but is essential for growing faith and making an eternal difference. To become sacrificially generous, Henry urges listeners to believe that God owns everything and provides all needs. He unpacks Philippians 4, highlighting that God's promise to meet needs is conditional upon generosity. Henry clarifies that this promise doesn't cover idleness or wants, emphasizing contentment and a biblical view of needs in light of global poverty. He concludes by encouraging listeners to align their actions with their beliefs, eliminate debt, and invest in what truly matters eternally, trusting in God's provision as they exercise generosity.
