Secrets, I
Deut.28:8-9 “The Lord will guarantee a blessing on everything you do and will fill your storehouses with grain. The Lord your God will bless you in the land he is giving you. “If you obey the commands of the Lord your God and walk in his ways, the Lord will establish you…” (NRSV)
The first key to unlock the heavens is You Must Pray. You have to understand that the supernatural only responds when the people of God take their place in prayer. You have to pray. Prayer connects earth to heaven. Read the rest of this entry
The Blessing
Luke 9:16 “Jesus took the five loaves and two fish, looked up toward heaven, and blessed them.”
To multiply, the first thing Jesus teaches us from the example in Luke 9:12-17 is to organize. The second thing we see from this scripture is it has to be blessed before it can multiply. God does not bless things that are disorganized, so you have to be organized first but it has to be blessed. Read the rest of this entry
Extra, Extra
Gen.24:19 “When she had given him a drink, she said, “I’ll draw water for your camels, too, until they have had enough to drink.” 25 “Yes, we have plenty of straw and feed for the camels, and we have room for guests.”
People who excel do more and people who excel, they do more. In Genesis 24, Abraham sent his oldest servant to help pick out a wife for Isaac. So, he prayed and stepped out in faith. When he asked Rebecca for water, without any prompting she decided to go the extra mile and water his camels also. Read the rest of this entry
Perception
Prov.11:24 (NKJV) “There is one who scatters, yet increases more; And there is one who withholds more than is right, but it leads to poverty.”
The average person is dishonest and that is the reality that we are faced with. You cannot run a successful business by leaving your business in the care of a manager. You have no clue what is happening but you are waiting for returns. Read the rest of this entry
In Pursuit
Mal. 3:10 “Bring all the tithes into the storehouse so there will be enough food in my Temple. If you do,” says the Lord of Heaven’s Armies…” [with emphasis]
We are totally grateful to God for technological advancements that have now made it possible for many to conveniently do their giving online. And there is nothing wrong with paying tithes or offerings online. However, God expects us to come.
Think Trans-generational
Heb.7:10 “For although Levi wasn’t born yet, the seed from which he came was Abraham’s body when Melchizedek collected the tithe from him.”
In Abraham, Levi paid tithe. Levi is about fourth generations from Abraham. A lot of people reading this today are first generation Christians. You are laboring but you are not seeing as much result. Keep on laboring; do not get tired because your children, your grandchildren, your children yet unborn, will see the result. In Abraham, Levi paid tithe. There are seeds you will sow today that the harvest will keep pouring in for generations. Unfortunately, a lot of people are too myopic. God is trans-generational.
In Response To…
2 Chr.16:9 “The eyes of the Lord search the whole earth in order to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to him”
The second way to provoke God’s favour and make heaven decide on your behalf is by Pleasing God. You can provoke favour by pleasing God. Pleasing God unlocks God’s favour. Ruben was in line to receive the double blessing but he went out of favour with Jacob. May you not go out of favour, in Jesus Name. Read the rest of this entry
Principle Of Honor
“You must present one-tenth of the tithe received from the Israelites as a sacred offering to the Lord. This is the Lord’s sacred portion, and you must present it to Aaron the priest” Num.18:28 [emphasis added]
At one of our vigils, worship was really intense and beautiful, and I felt the Lord say that people owe Him tithe and He wanted to forgive them. I have never heard that before. We were taught that if you owe God tithe, you will pay back with twenty-five percent interest. Have you heard that before? But the Holy Spirit said He wants to wipe it off. Holy Spirit can mess up your theology. He is God and He reserves the right to do as He pleases.
Foundation Stone III
“Reuben, thou art my firstborn, my might, and the beginning of my strength, the excellency of dignity, and the excellency of power: Unstable as water, thou shalt not excel…” Gen.49:3-4 [emphasis added].
All of us must desire understanding when it comes to spiritual things. Spiritual things are not like a switch but rather spiritual things are more like an electric oven; it takes time to heat up when you plug it. That is why when you keep praying, after a while you notice you begin to get the results. It takes time. However, it is the same thing when you unplug the electric oven, it also takes time to cool Read the rest of this entry
Foundation Stone II
“‘Well done!’ the king exclaimed. ‘You are a good servant. You have been faithful with the little I entrusted to you, so you will be governor of ten cities as your reward” Lu.19:17.
You cannot afford to be comfortable with mediocrity or with being mentally lazy. Study! I repeatedly hear people say is it because I bought this device that I have to go back to school? No, it is because you are who you are that is why you have to study the about the device. It is not about the device here, it is about your life. For all of us our lives our filled with potential, filled with the things that God Read the rest of this entry
