The Lord's Way: Why God Asks You for What He Doesn’t Need

The Lord's Way: God Does't Ask You To Sacrifice For His Benefit, He Asks For YOURS
Do you ever feel like God needs your service, your time, or your tithing? The beautiful truth outlined by Elder Dallin H. Oaks in his book, The Lord's Way, is that our consecrated offerings are not for His benefit, but for ours.

This video explores the profound principle of "The Lord's Way," using the iconic scriptural example of Jesus Christ and the woman at the well (John 4). Why did the Savior ask for a simple drink when He could have miraculously obtained anything He needed?

Dive into this pivotal insight from President Oaks:

God Doesn't Need It: His power is absolute. He could obtain all tithing, service, or water for Himself.

We Desperately Need To Give: Our gifts—no matter how small—are the essential laboratories where we learn discipleship, consecration, and ultimately, become more like Christ.

The Blessings Outweigh the Gift: What God gives back to us in character development and spiritual power is far greater than the sacrifice we offer.

Stop believing you are simply fulfilling a required quota. Start seeing your service as a divinely appointed opportunity for your own spiritual growth and development! If you want to transform the way you view your temple service, ministering, or callings, this teaching will change your heart.
