HOW TO GIVE ACCORDING TO THE WORD
Tthes
The tithe is a tenth (10%) of your gross income. This is to be given not as an afterthought but as a payment to God Almighty. Malachi 3:10 says to “bring the full tithes in to the storehouse that there may be food in My house; and thereby put Me to the test, says the Lord of hosts if I will not open the windows of heaven for you and pour down for you an overflowing blessing. He goes on to say- “I will rebuke the devourer for you, so that it will not destroy the fruits of your soil; and your vine in the field shall not fail to bear, says the Lord of hosts. Then all the nations of the earth shall call you blessed, for you shall be a land of delight, says the Lord of hosts.
Giving to your man of God
When you send an offering to your man of God, don’t think you are enriching him, because you couldn’t, even if you tried. The anointing upon him is not for his benefit but for your benefit!
God instructed the children of Israel to bring all their offerings and sacrifices to the priests so that they could connect to the anointing. This was the anointing that caused them to remain prosperous in the things they did. In the same way today, your prosperity is in your man of God.
The Lord used the term “forever“ in Numbers 18:8 because of some skeptics that would think that the ordinance was restricted to those folks who lived under the old covenant.
God uses their offerings to connect His people to the anointing. You don’t need any hands laid on you to prosper. Learn to connect yourself to the anointing in the appropriate manner today and you will be amazed at the result.
God is interested in helping you to lead a better life. When the Holy Ghost comes to live inside you, He comes to turn your wilderness into a fruitful field; water will spring up from your desert. You will experience productivity and growth in every area of your life. God said he will pour out His Spirit upon your seed and His blessing upon your offspring (Isaiah 44:2-4). Your seed is anything that proceeds from you. Your work, thoughts, ideas and money are all your seed because they all represent you. When God pours His Spirit upon your seed you will become more productive than ever before. And what’s more, He not only makes you productive, he also causes your productive life to affect others positively.
