Command: Sell possessions, give charity

Luke 12:33

33“Sell your possessions and give to charity; make yourselves money belts that do not wear out, an inexhaustible treasure in heaven, where no thief comes near nor does a moth destroy. 34For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

Story: Unity of believers; Ananias and Sapphira

Audio Message:

When meditating on the commands and stories, keep these questions in mind:

What do I learn about God, Jesus, and/or the Holy Spirit?
What do I learn about man/ people?
What troubles or bothers me? What does the Holy Spirit reveal to me in light of this?
How does the command connect to the story?
What is God saying to me (or what should I obey) & what am I going to do about it?
Do I have any fears, doubts, or resistance in keeping this command?
What does this command reveal about the condition of my heart – what do I really believe and what do I really want?
