In this message, Pastor Browning explores the gracious heart of God revealed in the “Lord’s release.” Every seven years, Israel was commanded to forgive debts, free servants, and rest the land, not as an economic policy, but as a spiritual practice. It reminded them that everything they possessed was given by God, and that His blessing was meant to flow through them, not end with them.

Deuteronomy 15 teaches us that true generosity begins with remembering divine ownership. God gives, God blesses, and God calls His people to mirror His mercy.

When we live with open hands, releasing, forgiving, and blessing others, we reflect His kingdom on earth.

Through this sermon, discover three enduring truths that shape the believer’s stewardship and compassion:

• 
  

  The Release of the Lord — forgiving debts because all we have is His.

  
  


• 
  

  The Reigning of the Nations — living as citizens of a greater kingdom.

  
  


• 
  

  The Reason for Blessing — caring for the needy with cheerful hearts.

  
  

The “Lord’s release” points to the greatest release of all, when God forgave our debt of sin through Christ. As recipients of such grace, we are called to live the same way: grateful, generous, and guided by His heart for others.
