đź’Ş The Pain That Grows You
Generosity isn’t always easy—sometimes it hurts. But just like lifting weights in the gym, the resistance we feel when we give is the very thing that builds our spiritual strength. Pastor Dennis unpacks how God uses generosity to stretch, shape, and strengthen us for greater impact.When we grip too tightly to what we have, we lose the very blessings God wants to pour into our lives. Proverbs reminds us that “the stingy person comes to poverty, but the generous person will prosper.” The truth is, what we release never leaves our life—it multiplies back into it.


🏋️‍♂️ Embrace the Resistance — Growth requires pressure. Generosity isn’t meant to be comfortable—it’s meant to be transformational.
💰 Break the Grip of Stinginess — When we hold on, we block God’s flow. When we give, we open the door for Heaven to move.
🌱 Build Spiritual Muscle — Every act of generosity is a workout for your faith. The more you give, the stronger your trust in God becomes.
🚀 Live in Overflow — God’s economy doesn’t run on subtraction—it runs on multiplication. What you release in faith returns in abundance.This message isn’t about losing—it’s about growing. God isn’t trying to take something from you; He’s trying to get something to you. The pain of generosity is temporary—but the strength it produces lasts forever.

📖 “One person gives freely, yet gains even more; another withholds unduly, but comes to poverty.” — Proverbs 11:24
