36 Now there was at Joppa a certain disciple named Tabitha, which by interpretation is called Dorcas: this woman was full of good works and almsdeeds which she did.
37 And it came to pass in those days, that she was sick, and died: whom when they had washed, they laid her in an upper chamber.
38 And forasmuch as Lydda was nigh to Joppa, and the disciples had heard that Peter was there, they sent unto him two men, desiring him that he would not delay to come to them.
39 Then Peter arose and went with them. When he was come, they brought him into the upper chamber: and all the widows stood by him weeping, and shewing the coats and garments which Dorcas made, while she was with them.
40 But Peter put them all forth, and kneeled down, and prayed; and turning him to the body said, Tabitha, arise. And she opened her eyes: and when she saw Peter, she sat up.
41 And he gave her his hand, and lifted her up, and when he had called the saints and widows, presented her alive

D.The teacher should stress the following:

ii.Believers should note that all our possessions come from God, which means He (God) owns everything. (Ps.68:19; 1Cor.4:7).
iii. Believers should therefore be encouraged to give to people in need or render helpful services because these result in blessings. (Prov.22:9).

i. We should help in love. (1Cor. 13:13; 1John 3:17).
ii.We should render help as service to God. (2Cor.9:8).
iii. Giving, for instance, should be an outward sign of our love for others. (1Jn,3:17).
iv.We should render help as service to God. (2 Cor.9:8).
iv. We should give expecting God to bless us in return. (Luke 6:38).

vi. The state of the heart of the giver matters more than the size of the gift. (Luke 21:1-4).
