A prayer for you as you begin this lesson

Before watching this video, we invite you to pray the following prayer: Lord, You show us time and time again in Scripture that You are a multiplier. When we are faithful with what we have, offering it to You rather than keeping it for ourselves, You multiply and You increase. We recognize that this is ultimately a way of demonstrating Your glory, but also a way that You use our faithfulness to bless others. May I honor You with what I have–my time, my talents, and my finances; may You multiply it, and may it bless others abundantly. In Jesus’ name, amen.
