Envelope Stories

Alright, now it’s time to share some cool stories with you. I received several emails from people telling me what happened as God directed them to use the money that they received in the envelope. One lady found herself behind somebody that needed more gas but her debit card wasn’t working and she didn’t have any cash. She gave her the money that she had from the envelope to pay for the gas. God had her at the right spot at the right time to sow a seed and meet a need. To some that may seem like a little thing but there are so many things going on here that we can’t see on the surface. For one thing, we don’t know the situation of the person who needed the money. They may be in a desperate situation and God could have used that to open up a door in her life. Secondly, there is the issue of hearing God’s voice and obeying it. Put both of those together and we can see that God was definitely moving in this situation! More to come.

 

Envelope Experiment

A couple of weeks ago during our series about hearing from God, I gave out envelopes to everyone in the service.  In the envelopes were various denominations of money.  Some people had $10, some people had $40.  The challenge was this…expect to hear from God on what to do with this money and learn to recognize His voice.  I have been receiving several cool stories from people and I’d like to share a couple of them with you in the weeks ahead.  This was a great experience for our church to hear from God and make a difference in the community and people around us.  It is amazing what opportunities God brings your way if you are ready to act when it comes!
