QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ON TITHE PAYMENT

God's blessings shall follow you for taking the time to study.

TOPIC: QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ON TITHE PAYMENT

TEXT: GENESIS 14:18-20 

WEDNESDAY OCTOBER 25TH

Key verse: Genesis 14: 20 And blessed be the most high God, which hath delivered thine enemies into thy hand.  And he gave him tithes of all.
Question: Some denominations don’t believe in tithe payment. I want to be cleared, Sir. Another thing is that some people pay tithe personally to the minister, is it right?
Answer: Abraham paid tithe to Melchizedek, the priest of the Most High God. We do not have the details of Melchizedek but Abraham would have known him and 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 representing God. It means, as the Lord leads you to give tithe to a minister of God, you know the minister; 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. 
That is 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 may say he is not a pastor over a church. The Bible says, the human body has different members. We have the eyes, nose, ears, hands, and other internal members that are not seen. 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 who gather congregations to pastor them. Some are evangelists and do not have congregations. 
Some have prayer ministry, children ministry, and different kinds of ministries that may not have a building gathering people but they are true ministers of God, all working together to produce salvation for mankind. Although the man is not over a church, he is doing great work for God. That man also needs money and he asks of God. The tithe money in your hand as tithe, is God’s money. That man has told God that he is trying to organize a prayer conference. We need money to eat, we need transport money, God, give me money. God can tell you to send His money in your hand to support them.

Thought for the day: Pay your tithes regularly and faithfully

Song for the day: We bring sacrifice of praise, into the house of the Lord…

Bible reading for the day: Jeremiah 14-16; 1 Timothy 5

Every Word Of God For Daily Living For taking your time to study remain blessed July Tuesday 9th TOPIC: WE ARE IN THE TWILIGHT HOUR OF RAPTURE TEXT: Ephesians 5:26-27 KEY VERSE: Hebrews 9:28 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation. Seeing the traces of the features of the next dispensation in this present dispensation, you should know that you are in the twilight hour. What is a twilight hour? A twilight hour is that hour of the day that you begin to see the traces of the night while it is still daylight (probably 7:00pm to 7:30pm). It is not completely dark, yet it is not complete bright either. While it is still day, you are seeing the traces of the night. A twilight hour is the hour when you are still in this dispensation but you are already seeing traces of the next. The twilight hour is the time that our Lord Jesus Christ was born and even though He came with the New Test...
