Matthew 6:1-18
1. Give
Giving your money to help people who need it.
2. Pray
Prayer is the intentional act of talking and listening to God.
* Prayer is about submission
* Prayer is relational
* Prayer is a place of authenticity
* Prayer is proportional
Luke 18:9-14
3. Fast
Fasting is the intentional avoidance of food for the purpose of focussing on the spiritual over the physical.
* Fasting is a tangible form of self-denial.
* Fasting reveals how often we use food pleasure to avoid discomfort
* Reveals the satisfying nature of obedience
* Increases spiritual leverage
* Turns down the volume on the external and turns up the volume on the internal
* Reveals what controls you
