Memorize and Reflect

Hebrews 13:5
Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.”


Prayer Direction

Thank Jesus for His presence in your life and His promise to never leave you nor forsake you. Thank Him for the greatest contentment we can experience in being with Him and secure with Him. Ask the Holy Spirit to show you areas in your finances that can be better used for the glory of Jesus and the good of others. Commit to make one or more changes in response to His leading.


“Live It!” Challenge

Take an Inventory: This week, set aside some time to evaluate your current spending plan. List all your expenses, categorizing essential (i.e., bills, heating/electricity, rent/home loan, etc.) and optional (subscriptions, restaurants, coffee shops, etc.) on a monthly basis. Make a commitment to reduce expenses by 10% and if not yet giving to the work of Jesus, take the money saved and give to your home church.


Small Group Discussion

  1. What was your first memory of money and its importance in life? What is one lesson you learned about money over your lifetime?

  2. Read: Psalm 24:1. How does this verse reframe what the world and popular culture try and lead us to believe?

  3. What practical ways have you applied this verse to your life and finances?

  4. Read: Hebrews 13:5. What does this verse caution us from doing and encourage us to be?

  5. How do God’s presence and His promises give us greater contentment?

  6. Read: Matthew 6:19-21. What are examples of earthly treasures, and what are examples of heavenly treasures?

  7. Reflecting on this week’s message, what is one area in your finances where you could honor God with greater intentionality and generosity? Be specific and ask your group to pray for you as you take the steps to revisit your finances and reimagine generosity.
