Today I want to share a very vital message from the "Faith To Faith" devotional by our partners, Kenneth and Gloria Copeland:
Give God a Way In
And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall
not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast her fruit
before the time in the field, saith the Lord of hosts. And all nations shall
call you blessed: for ye shall be a delightsome land. Malachi 3:11-12
God is vitally interested in your finances. He wants to
multiply and protect them. But He won’t be able to—unless you open the door for
Him to do it.
How? Through tithing.
When you tithe, you give God the legal right to intervene in
your financial affairs, to bless you richly, and to defend you against the
destruction the devil brings. When you tithe, you lay a foundation for success
and abundance. You establish deposits with God you can draw on when you need
them.
But don’t wait until your back is against the wall to start.
Begin now. Start developing your faith when things are going well by meditating
on the blessings God’s Word promises you as a tither. Learn to act on that Word
now, and when Satan tries to put you in a financial corner, he’ll fail. His
power over you financially will have already been broken. Because you’ve
established yourself on the covenant of God, Satan will have no chance against
you. God will rebuke him for your sake.
If you haven’t yet opened the door and given God a way in to
your finances, don’t wait any longer. Do it today. Then, when the pressures of
tomorrow come, you’ll be prepared and protected by the special privileges that
are guaranteed to those who tithe.
Amen! Tithing, and then giving offerings above the tithe, are a very vital part of MY worship of my Lord Jesus! HE has blessed my life beyond compare, and I know that He will do the same for you! Here, to encourage you in all that you do in obedience to His Word, is Hillsong Young and Free with "Indescribable":Shalom in Him!
