1 Samuel 8:7-8 (The Message)

God answered Samuel, "Go ahead and do what they're asking. They are not rejecting you. They've rejected me as their King.

From the day I brought them out of Egypt until this very day they've been behaving like this, leaving me for other gods. And now they're doing it to you.

Then Samuel said, Do you think all God wants are sacrifices— empty rituals just for show? He wants you to listen to him! Plain listening is the thing, not staging a lavish religious production.

VIII. MAIN BODY:

A. Gives us life

"God brings life"

"I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full, till it overflows). - CHRIST JESUS" - John 10:10

John 3:16 (Amplified Bible)

For God so greatly loved and dearly prized the world that He [even] gave up His only begotten (unique) Son, so that whoever believes in (trusts in, clings to, relies on) Him shall not perish (come to destruction, be lost) but have eternal (everlasting) life.

The center of the Gospel = GOD giving us life thru the SON He loves so much.

John 17:3 (Amplified Bible)

And this is eternal life: [it means] to know (to perceive, recognize, become acquainted with, and understand) You, the only true and real God, and [likewise] to know Him, Jesus [as the] Christ (the Anointed One, the Messiah), Whom You have sent.

1 John 5:20 (Amplified Bible)

And we [have seen and] know [positively] that the Son of God has [actually] come to this world and has given us understanding and insight [progressively] to perceive (recognize) and come to know better and more clearly Him Who is true; and we are in Him Who is true—in His Son Jesus Christ (the Messiah). This [Man] is the true God and Life eternal.

B. Gives us wealth

"God brings wealth"

1 Timothy 6:17 (Amplified Bible)

As for the rich in this world, charge them not to be proud and arrogant and contemptuous of others, nor to set their hopes on uncertain riches, but on God, Who richly and ceaselessly provides us with everything for [our] enjoyment.

Philippians 4:19 (Amplified Bible)

And my God will liberally supply (fill to the full) your every need according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus.

2 Corinthians 9:8 (Amplified Bible)

And God is able to make all grace (every favor and earthly blessing) come to you in abundance, so that you may always and under all circumstances and whatever the need be self-sufficient [possessing enough to require no aid or support and furnished in abundance for every good work and charitable donation].

It's GOD's Will for us to be channel of blessing for we have more than enough.

Isaiah 55:10 (Amplified Bible)

For as the rain and snow come down from the heavens, and return not there again, but water the earth and make it bring forth and sprout, that it may give seed to the sower and bread to the eater,

"He also lifts up"

Psalms 113:7 (Amplified Bible)

[The Lord] raises the poor out of the dust and lifts the needy from the ash heap and the dung hill,

Psalms 145:14 (Amplified Bible)

The Lord upholds all those [of His own] who are falling and raises up all those who are bowed down.

Psalms 146:8 (Amplified Bible)

The Lord opens the eyes of the blind, the Lord lifts up those who are bowed down, the Lord loves the [uncompromisingly] righteous (those upright in heart and in right standing with Him).
