QUESTION AND ANSWER SERIES (TITHING)         
TEXT: Genesis 14:18-20
KEY VERSE: Malachi 3:8 “Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me. But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee? In tithes and offerings. “
QUESTION: Some denominations do not believe in tithe payment. I want to be cleared Sir and another thing is that some people pay tithe directly to ministers, is it right?

ANSWER: (Part 1)
From our text we see this case before the children of Abraham were born, before the law was given, maybe about 400 years after Abraham was paying tithe. He paid tithe to a man called Melchizedek and Melchizedek who was he? He was the priest of the most High God. He was the minister of the Most High God. We didn’t have the details of Melchizedek but Abraham would have known him, Abraham would have been convinced about him, Abraham would have been well directed to do what he did knowing that it is to God as a priest, as a minister of God represented God. It means the Lord led you so to give tithe to a minister of God. You know the minister, you know his life and work that it is in truth and righteousness. You can do that because the Lord has led you to the right place.
You can do that, that’s to say the tithe that you want to give to the minister of God that person should be a true servant of the God of heaven. Yes, but you say he is not a pastor over a church the Bible says the human body don’t have the same members, we have the eye, we have the nose, we have the ear, we have the hand, we have other members that are inside that we don’t see them. They work together to form the whole body. In the same way the ministers in the body of Christ do not carry out the same function. There are some that are pastors that gather congregation to pastor them, there are some that are evangelist they don’t have congregations, some have prayer ministry, some have children ministry, some have different kinds of ministry that may not have a building gathering people but they are true servants of God, true ministers of God and we are all working together to produce salvation for mankind.
So although the man is not over a church but if you see what he is doing for God is very great. Does that man also need money? And if he is looking for money who does he tell? He tells who? He tells God and the money you have in your hand that as tithe is it God money or your own. That money you have in your hand is it belonging to your denomination or belonging to you. That man has called on God and said Lord I am trying to organize prayer conference and we need money to eat, we need transport money, God give me money.

For taking your time to study remain blessed. UNDERSTANDING ETERNITY WEDNESDAY MAY 10 TEXT: Psalm 90: 1 - 2 Key Verse: “The Lord is King forever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land Psalm 10:16 People that understand eternity are always careful. Eternity means forever and ever, it means ever-lasting, ever-living, never dying. Trillion upon trillion years, eternity is still on, in fact it is life without end. There are two extreme ends of eternity: The kingdom of God called third heaven where God the Father, God the son, God the Holy Ghost, twenty-four elders, saints of God that make heaven, holy angels of God, and entire host of heaven dwell now presently; Hell-fire, where Satan, demons, and sinners that have died in their sins are presently kept. God is the One that introduced eternity. He lives forever. It is not a choice, the One who created us is forever, hence you will live forever, but what matters is where you will live eternally. Remove God from the way, then t...

TOPIC: HOW TO BE SANCTIFIED (PART 2)

HOLINESS REVIVAL MOVEMENT WORLDWIDE HOREMOW DAILY DEVOTIONAL BY PASTOR PAUL RIKA INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR. DATE: FRIDAY JULY 17, 2026. TOPIC: HOW TO BE SANCTIFIED (PART 2) TEXT: HEBREWS 11:1-6 1. Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. 2. For by it the elders obtained a good report. 3. Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. 4. By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaketh. 5. By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God. 6. But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligent...
