THE 4 ANCHORS OF GOD'S ECONOMY
OWNERSHIP:
· Remember the Lord your God, for it is he who gives you the ability to produce wealth. (Deuteronomy 8:18)
· The earth is the Lord's, and everything in it. (1 Corinthians 10:26)
STEWARDSHIPS:
· Whatever you do, do your work heartily, as for the Lord rather than for men. (Colossians 3:23)
· In the house of the wise are stores of choice food and oil, but a foolish man devours all he has. (Proverbs 21:20)
GIVING:
· One man gives freely, yet gains even more; another withholds unduly, but comes to poverty. A generous man will prosper; he who refreshes others will himself be refreshed. (Proverbs 11:24-25)
· And remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that He Himself said, "It is more blessed to give than to receive. (Acts 20:35)
CONTENTMENT:
· I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. I know what it is to be in need and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do all things through him who gives me strength. (Philippians 4:11-13)
