I Surrender All - "My Finances"

"I Surrender My Finances"

Dr. Gary Singleton

For the past few weeks we’ve been talking about what it means to surrender all to Jesus. We’ve talked about surrendering our marriage, our worship, our doubt, and our bitterness. Most of us would say that we want to surrender all of those things to Jesus and give Him complete control. But the truth is, most of us struggle to do so.

Nowhere is the struggle to surrender more difficult than in the area of finances. Why is surrendering our finances to Jesus that big a deal? And what happens when we give control of our finances to Him?

This Sunday we will look at the story of Cain and Abel found in Genesis 4:1-7. These two brothers have a lot to teach us when it comes to surrendering our finances to God. Both brothers gave an offering to God, but one offering was accepted and one was rejected. Why?

I hope you will join me Sunday as we learn from the story of Cain and Abel that in surrendering our finances to Jesus, we must decide “why” to give before we decide “what” to give.
