Turn with me, please, to the book of Acts, Acts 20, and verse 32.

He said, now, brother, and I commend you to God and to the word of His grace,

which is able to build you up and give you an inheritance and among all of them which are sanctified.

Verse 35, I have showed you all things how that's so laboring you ought to support the

weak and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus how he said it is more blessed to give than to receive.

The master said, it is more blessed to give than to receive.

And this word more is translated much more, is translated more and more, revealing that there are degrees of blessing.

Anybody glad that you're experiencing more blessing than you were years ago?

Would you be open to taking another step up?

Well, notice is connected with giving.

Not just giving in an offering.

Giving as a mentality,

giving as a lifestyle,

which is the same thing as saying

a lifestyle of divine love.

God so loved the world that he what?

That he gave.

And he gave the greatest thing, the most precious thing he had to give,

demonstrating the degree of his love for us,

and how far he was willing to go to redeem us. He has forever proven, demonstrated his love for you.

Do not question it.

I said don't question it.
