I Thought It Was Mine//We Need to Talk//Apostle Ken Bennett

About this sermon

Who really owns your life, your money, your gifts, your opportunities, and your future? In this powerful message, “We Need to Talk,” Apostle Ken Bennett challenges us to confront one of the most important questions in our walk with God: Who has the final authority in your life? Starting with Psalm 24, we are reminded that “the earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof.” Everything we have ultimately comes from God. Our finances, careers, businesses, bodies, gifts, relationships, opportunities, and resources are not simply possessions—they are things God has entrusted to us. This message goes beyond a conversation about money or generosity. It is a conversation about ownership, stewardship, surrender, and biblical authority. When culture, personal experiences, desires, and opinions begin shaping our theology more than Scripture, we can find ourselves asking God’s Word to agree with conclusions we have already made. Apostle Ken challenges believers to return to the Bible and allow the Word of God—not culture—to have the final say. You’ll discover why: • Holding something does not mean you own it. • Success becomes dangerous when achievement produces amnesia. • We must never confuse partnership with being the source. • God gives us the strength, ability, resources, and opportunities to produce. • Stewardship asks, “God, what do You want me to do with what You placed in my hands?” • Biblical generosity begins with recognizing that everything belongs to God. Deuteronomy 8 warns us not to reach a place of success and say, “My power and the might of my hand have gotten me this wealth.” Instead, we must remember the Lord, because He is the One who gives us the ability to produce. If God is preparing you for greater opportunities, greater influence, greater resources, or a new season, this message will challenge you to enter that season with the right heart: God is the source. We are the stewards. Don’t allow success to make you forget the One who brought you this far. 📖 Key Scriptures: Psalm 24:1–2 Colossians 2:8 Deuteronomy 8:17–18 Genesis 1:1–2 2 Timothy 2:15 If this message challenged or encouraged you, share it with someone who needs to hear it and subscribe for more biblical teaching from Connect Church Plano.
