TOPIC: TITHE DEFAULTERS ARE ROBBERS OF GOD!

TEXT: Malachi 3:7-11
7 Even from the days of your fathers ye are gone away from mine ordinances, and have not kept them. Return unto me, and I will return unto you, saith the Lord of hosts. But ye said, Wherein shall we return?
8 Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me. But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee? In tithes and offerings.
9 Ye are cursed with a curse: for ye have robbed me, even this whole nation.
10 Bring 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.
11 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.

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.

Many people do not understand why God says those who do not pay their tithe and do not give Him offering are robbers. Yes, these are robbers because they deny men, women and children the privilege of hearing the gospel of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ; hence, they rob God of His glory among men. In fact, they are more than just being robbers!

i. They are wicked: because they do not pity their fellow men on their way to destruction. They have no passion for soul. They value money above the soul of man. They do not realize that nothing can be given in exchange for the soul of man.
ii. They are selfish: because they think only about themselves and care not for other people around them.
iii. They are rebellious:  because God gave them money and material possessions so that they would give back to Him for His glory, but they turn these things to their glory and reject the glory of God.
iv. They are ungrateful: because they refuse to express praise and gratitude to God with the money and material possessions He has given them.
v. They are unreasonable:  because they do not realize that they are strangers in this world who brought nothing into it and will take nothing out of it when they die.
vi. They are useless: because God cannot put their money and material possessions into honorable use for the glory of His Name.
vii. They are wretched: because they have no eternal investment in the kingdom of God. Revelation 3:17 Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked: 

Therefore, God has cursed them with a curse! The God who placed a curse on Cain has placed a curse upon them, for refusing to honour Him and promote His course and glory on earth through the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Thought for the day: It is bad enough to be a robber of man, how much more robbing God in tithe.

Song for the day: I am ready to obey Thy word, I am ready to obey…..

Bible reading for the day: Exodus 37-38; Matthew 23:23-39 #Horemow

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...

My Father will order the angels to sound the trumpet. Be ready! Do My work. Gather My people.” When He said that, He insisted and said, “I am gathering My people with My Spirit.

Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2)

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2) Wednesday 15th October TEXT: Titus 3: 3-6   Key verse: Titus 3: 6 “Which He shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior.” I remember I was in Sao Tome and Principe as a deeper life national overseer and I was writing the book, “Divine Revelation of God’s Holiness and Judgment.” The vision the Lord gave to Michael Sambo. I was translating it into a book, with the scriptural backups to make it a sound evangelistic book. I saw that truly the world is doomed. What will I say about those who have not known Jesus among the 7 billion people on earth; those who do not even have anything to do with Him? Do I speak of the billions in Asia without understanding of Jesus? Out of the 1.4 billion in India, they are struggling to record 150 million Christians including Catholics.  Who knows Jesus then? Even among Pentecosta...
