Use your Gift For Bread

Luke 4

3 And the devil said unto him, If thou be the Son of God, command this stone that it  be made bread.
  4 And Jesus answered him, saying,  It is written, That man shall not live by bread  alone, but by every word of God. 

This was the temptation to USE HIS POWER for HIMSELF,

use your POSITION  for YOURSELF,  use YOUR WEALTH for YOUR SELF..

Jesus told the devil guy " THAT MAN SHALL NOT LIVE BY BREAD

ALONE , BUT BY EVERY WORD OF GOD . "

What are you LIVING by❓❔

🌑 Bread is not a bad thing, God is saying even when you are hungry,
live by the Word of God.

🌑Live by all the Word of God not just some.....

Live by the Word of God.  Do all that God says to do according to The Word of God.
Live by what God's Word says don't let your belly lead you.

Philipians 3
19 Whose end  is destruction, whose God  is their BELLY , and  whose glory  is in  their shame, who mind earthly things.) 

🌑PASTOR forget your belly, be led by the Spirit and not your needs..

The devil is back with the same temptation...  Use your gift 🎁for your self....
Don't use your Charisma for money collection.. Yes you have power over bank Managers, must you raise the offering because of need ❓❔❓

Raise the offering because (by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God) The Spirit said so..  It might even be  a season when there is no need on ground but the Spirit said so..

Romans 8
14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. 

Let us live by the word of God.... By the way of the Bible... Teach them the Word and not how to follow their belly.

5 Hearken, my beloved brethren, Hath not God chosen the poor of this world rich in  faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he hath promised to them that love him? 

REAL RICHES
1 Timothy 6
17 Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in  uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy;
