Principle Of Honor By Femi Monehin

Fresh Fire Daily Devotional Saturday 13th August 2016

“You must present one-tenth of the tithe received from the Israelites as a sacred offering to the Lord. This is the Lord’s sacred portion, and you must present it to Aaron the priest”
- Num.18:28

At one of our vigils, worship was really intense and beautiful, and I felt the Lord say that people owe Him tithe and He wanted to forgive them. I have never heard that before. We were taught that if you owe God tithe, you will pay back with twenty-five percent interest. Have you heard that before? But the Holy Spirit said He wants to wipe it off. Holy Spirit can mess up your theology. He is God and He reserves the right to do as He pleases.

Just like the Saturday Worship Experiences in God’s Favourite House. Take note that I am sharing a past experience; I am not giving a call for ‘tithe pardon’ because that is not what He is saying. So I gave the call and folks came forward. One man in particular, his business had been at rock bottom consistently. So we prayed and they left. God being God, that man’s business began to flourish and multiply. Amazing! I had never seen or heard of it before.

Then one day I was at a secluded place, just alone with God, on my face praying. And God showed me this man’s picture and immediately I knew he was defaulting in his tithe. The first thought that came to me was impossible! In all my years of Pastoring, I hardly ever talk to anybody about tithe. I just do not do it. If you like, tithe; if you like do not tithe. When you see the devourer, you will know what to do.

So I called the man and asked him what was going on with his tithe. And he began to tell me stories. Why have you forgotten where God took you from? He said he would have to carry the tithe in two ‘Ghana must go bags’, to show you how much God had blessed him, and he did not want to do that. At that time, P.O.S. machines were not yet available. So I said to him, write a cheque and he said, cheques have people’s names on it and he did not want anyone to know... So it is better not to pay your tithe? And I left him alone. I need not tell you what happened next. Is it necessary for people to rub their noses in the dust before they do what they know they should do? Just do the principles that you know, you will go from death to life, [say Amen].

Prayer: Lord, by Your grace, I will honor the Lord Almighty with His sacred portion [tithe] from every harvest, in Jesus Name.

His Channels

By
Rom.1:20 For ever since the world was created, people have seen the earth and sky. Through everything God made, they can clearly see his invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature. So they have no excuse for not knowing God [with emphasis]. So far we have examined three channels God uses to speak to us. If you are not reading your Bible consistently, if you are not listening to messages over and over again, and if you are not accountable to other believers, you do not have believers that are speaking into your life, you have already missed three main channels God speaks through. Channel #4: God speaks to us through His Creation. Ps.19:1 The heavens proclaim the glory of God. The skies display his craftsmanship. 2 Day after day they continue to speak; night after night they make him known. 3 They speak without a sound or word; their voice is never heard. 4 Yet their message has gone throughout the earth, and their words to all the world [with emphasis]. God’s cre...

THEME: You Can Create Whatever You Desire John 16:21-27 The instrument with which you exercise dominion over creation is your mouth.You can create whatsoever you desire by speaking that thing into existence.Whatever you say begins to exist in the spiritual form.Jesus said in John 6:63,"The words that I speak unto you,they are spirit,and they are life". In like manner,you create whatever you say and the things begin to exist in the spiritual form.What you create through words also have life and they continue to live until they find physical expression.  This is exactly what happens when you pray.The things you declare in prayer come alive and begin to exist in their spiritual form.They remain in that spiritual form until they are converted to their tangible equivalent through work. Jesus said,"until now you have asked nothing in My name.Ask,and you will receive,that your joy may be full" (John 16:24). Don't make the mistake of relaxing after you have pray...

THEME: RETREAT TO REFRESH READ: Matt. 11:25-30 When some musicians want to release great songs, they retreat to secluded places where they can reflect, meditate and create. Some choose places overlooking the vast oceans, some choose where there are waterfalls, and some choose places with thick forestations.  As they observe the beauty of nature, the swift moves and songs of the soaring birds, the colourful flowering vegetations, the serene beaches and the unending waves of the nearby waters, they capture inspiration that helps them develop the hit songs they have been longing for. I met one of the world’s renowned musicians in Atlanta, USA a few years ago where journalist surrounded him and were asking what he had come to do and why his beards had grown so much. He said that his last album did not perform well enough and he was incubating another one he wanted to release that would perform better. He said that he needed to pull away from the Noise of New York and California ...
