The Power of Money - Is He Worth a Dime?

Learn how to think wealthy and stop thinking your job is the only way to wealth. God didn't just send Jesus so you can get to heaven but to also have heaven on earth. Everyone has increase on their life. You can't do anything with out money. When you don't tithe you are saying God is not worth a dime. Tithing is part of the Old and the New Testament.

Malachi 3:10

10Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.

This is right and it is for today. You tithe because we love God and not because you are afraid of being cursed. Blessing = Empowerment for heaven. Favor can take you further than heaven.

Tithing = 10%

There are 3 kinds of people

1. Committed - These are the people who will tithe no matter what and knows it is right.

2. Uncommitted - They have the attitude that the church should be grateful for a little offering. They are not ready to tithe.

3. Uninformed - They just don't know about tithing.

Be wise with the 90% that you have.When you start keeping 10 % it creates a whole lot of problems. If you don't make much God doesn't want much. If you make much He wants much. Adam touched the one thing that God told him not to touch and now look at the mess we are in.

Gen 28: 20 -22

20And Jacob vowed a vow, saying, If God will be with me, and will keep me in this way that I go, and will give me bread to eat, and raiment to put on,
 21So that I come again to my father's house in peace; then shall the LORD be my God:
 22And this stone, which I have set for a pillar, shall be God's house: and of all that thou shalt give me I will surely give the tenth unto thee.


Tithing brings protection, God's presence and provision. Giving a seed with out tithing is like tipping the waiter without paying for the meal.

Proverbs 3:9 - 10

9Honour the LORD with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase:
10So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine.

Don't expect God to bring you out of a problem quickly when you have spent years robbing God. Don't let people talk you out of tithing. Tithe off of the money from your job and any source of money. Your job is a resource and not a source. You need to store up in heaven so God will provide when problems arise and when people turn on you. Do not tithe off of borrowed money. That is not an increase. That is money that needs to be paid back.

God may not be freely giving to you because you are not giving what belongs to Him.
