Matthew 6:1-18 – “Motivation for Ministry in Everyday Activities.”

In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus tells us that our motivation for ministry in everyday activities is important. In Matthew 6:1-18, Jesus addresses the motivations in three specific ministry activities (giving, prayer, and fasting) and He helps us understand the right motivation for doing these things. 

If we’re motivated by what we get from these activities, then what we get is all we’ll get. There will be no eternal reward if getting is our motivation. But even more important than the motivation for eternal rewards is fellowship with God. There is nothing greater or more valuable than fellowship with our Heavenly Father.

Watch or listen to our study in Matthew 6:1-18 as we meditate on the right motivation for ministry in everyday activities.

Read ahead for this Sunday! We jumped over verses 7-15 of Matthew 6 this week, but we will consider these verses on Sunday. Hope to see you then!
