Love Worth Finding 2nd September 2024 – Are You Sharing What You Have?

LOVE WORTH FINDING 2ND SEPTEMBER 2024 MONDAY DEVOTIONAL MESSAGE BY ADRIAN ROGERS

TOPIC: Are You Sharing What You Have?

“And Joses, who was also named Barnabas by the apostles (which is translated Son of Encouragement), a Levite of the country of Cyprus, having land, sold it, and brought the money and laid it at the apostles’ feet.” – Acts 4:36-37

PONDER THIS
In this time, revival had broken out and many people wanted to know what was happening as they poured into the city of Jerusalem. Many of them became Christians and decided to stay to learn more and grow in their faith. They had no home to sleep in. They were not wealthy people but ordinary people. So many of these people had no place to go and nothing to eat. There was a great need for resources to meet immediate needs.

Barnabas had property, and instead of looking for how it could make him the most profit, he said, “I’ve got a piece of land. It’s a valuable piece of land. I can sell it easily to help with the needs around me.” He saw a need and moved in to meet that need. He saw a load and decided to lift it. But you don’t have to have property to lift a load. If we pay attention, there are needs to meet and opportunities to help in many ways.

Wouldn’t it be wonderful to be in a church full of people looking to lift one another’s load and bear each other’s burdens? That’s what this man Barnabas did. He gave what he had for the benefit of many.

• How has someone helped you in a time of need?
• Who is in need around you? How can you bear their burdens with them?

PRACTICE THIS
Help someone in need in your community.
