1 SUNDAY MAY 21ST 2017 NOTES AND SCRIPTURES FOR BREAKING POVERTY PT1

2 PASTOR ANDRE

3 Luke 4:16 (NIV) He went to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, and on the Sabbath day he went into the synagogue, as was his custom. He stood up to read,

4 Luke 4:17 (NIV) and the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him. Unrolling it, he found the place where it is written:

5 Luke 4:18a (NIV) The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor..

8 Matthew 11:4 (ESV) And Jesus answered them, Go and tell John what you hear and see:

9 Matthew 11:5 (ESV) the blind receive their sight and the lame walk, lepers are cleansed and the deaf hear, and the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them.

12 1. The first step in breaking poverty is Changing how you see yourself

13 Numbers 13:33 (KJV) And there we saw the giants, the sons of Anak, which come of the giants: and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight.

14 2. You can't Change how you see yourself until what you see changes

15 1 Samuel 17:49 (ESV) And David put his hand in his bag and took out a stone and slung it and struck the Philistine on his forehead. The stone sank into his forehead, and he fell on his face to the ground.

16 1 Samuel 17:50 (NIV) So David triumphed over the Philistine with a sling and a stone; without a sword in his hand he struck down the Philistine and killed him.

17 1 Samuel 17:51 (NIV) David ran and stood over him. He took hold of the Philistine s sword and drew it from the sheath. After he killed him, he cut off his head with the sword. When the Philistines saw that their hero was dead, they turned and ran.

18 1 Samuel 17:52 (NIV) Then the men of Israel and Judah surged forward with a shout and pursued the Philistines to the entrance of Gath and to the gates of Ekron. Their dead were strewn along the Shaaraim road to Gath and Ekron.

19 2 Samuel 21:19 (NIV) In another battle with the Philistines at Gob, Elhanan son of Jair the Bethlehemite killed the brother of Goliath the Gittite, who had a spear with a shaft like a weaver s rod.

20 2 Samuel 21:20 (NIV) In still another battle, which took place at Gath, there was a huge man with six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot twenty-four in all. He also was descended from Rapha.

21 2 Samuel 21:21 (NIV) When he taunted Israel, Jonathan son of Shimeah, David s brother, killed him.

22 3. It's Your Pastor's responsibility to provide you a vision so what you see changes.

23 Proverbs 29:18 (KJV) Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he.

24 Proverbs 29:18 (ESV) Where there is no prophetic vision the people cast off restraint, but blessed is he who keeps the law.

25 4. It's Your Pastor's responsibility to communicate vision so its simple and clear

26 Habakkuk 2:2 (KJV) And the Lord answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it.

27 Habakkuk 2:2 (NIV) The Lord s Answer Then the Lord replied: Write down the revelation and make it plain on tablets so that a herald may run with it.

28 5. It's Your church's responsibility to invest more into the vision of the future than into present day circumstances

29 1 Timothy 5:3 (NIV) Give proper recognition to those widows who are really in need.

30 1 Timothy 5:4 (NIV) But if a widow has children or grandchildren, these should learn first of all to put their religion into practice by caring for their own family and so repaying their parents and grandparents, for this is pleasing to God.

31 1 Timothy 5:5 (NIV) The widow who is really in need and left all alone puts her hope in God and continues night and day to pray and to ask God for help.

32 1 Timothy 5:6 (NIV) But the widow who lives for pleasure is dead even while she lives.

34 Mark 14:3 (NIV) While he was in Bethany, reclining at the table in the home of Simon the Leper, a woman came with an alabaster jar of very expensive perfume, made of pure nard. She broke the jar and poured the perfume on his head.

35 Mark 14:4 (NIV) Some of those present were saying indignantly to one another, Why this waste of perfume?

36 Mark 14:5 (NIV) It could have been sold for more than a year s wages and the money given to the poor. And they rebuked her harshly.

37 Mark 14:6 (NIV) Leave her alone, said Jesus. Why are you bothering her? She has done a beautiful thing to me.

38 Mark 14:7 (NIV) The poor you will always have with you, and you can help them any time you want. But you will not always have me.

39 Mark 14:8 (NIV) She did what she could. She poured perfume on my body beforehand to prepare for my burial.

40 Mark 14:9 (NIV) Truly I tell you, wherever the gospel is preached throughout the world, what she has done will also be told, in memory of her.
