M.A.P. - Motive. Attitude. Purpose
The Alignment That Leads to True Power
THE FOUNDATION
• Motive - Why you do what you do
• Attitude - How you do it
• Purpose - What it’s all for
• When these are aligned → life becomes powerful
• When they are off → life becomes confusing
WHY DO YOU LOVE GOD?
• He is the highest source of:
• Healing
• Love
• Compassion
• Wisdom
• Our love is a response-not a routine
1 John 4:19 (NKJV)
“We love Him because He first loved us.”
• Everything begins with Him
WHY DO YOU FORGIVE PEOPLE?
• Forgiveness is not weakness
• It is how you:
• Take back your power
• Break cycles
• Reflect Christ
• You are not saying it was right
→ You are choosing to live right
Ephesians 4:32 (NKJV)
“Forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you.”
• Forgiveness shapes who you become
WHY DO YOU EARN MONEY?
• To handle:
• Needs
• Responsibilities
• Growth
• Money reveals:
• Discipline
• Priorities
• Character
• It’s not about the money you earn
→ It’s about the lessons you learn.
STORY -THE SHIFT
A man reached a place where he managed more money than ever before It looked like success-but it tested him. He realized: Money didn’t make him better It exposed who he already was.
He chose:
• Responsibility
• Integrity
• Growth
Coc Powerful Lesson:
• Money is not the reward
• Growth is the reward
MONEY IS A TOOL - NOT A GOD
1 Timothy 6:10 (NKJV)
“The love of money is a root of all kinds of evil…”
• The problem is not money
→ It is the love and the lack of money
• When money is your god:
• It controls you
• It defines you
• When money is your tool:
• You control it
• You steward it
TRUE RICHES
• God’s trust
• People’s trust
• Responsibility with impact
• Wealth is not what you have
→ It’s what you are trusted with
FINAL ALIGNMENT
• Motive is pure
• Attitude is right
• Purpose is clear
You are no longer controlled by:
• Money
• People
• Circumstances
• You are led by:
• God
• Growth
• Truth
SIMPLE REMINDER
• Love God - He is the source
• Forgive people - it sets you free
• Use money as a tool - don’t worship it
