Principle Of Honor By Femi Monehin

“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.

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...

Sin Stained...or Blood Washed?

This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them; and their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.  (Hebrews 10:16-17) The Bible tells us that under Levitical law, an animal had to be offered every year to atone for the sins of the people. That word atone means "to cover" and it's used continually throughout the Old Testament. But let me tell you something exciting. It's never used in the New Testament. The Greek word used to describe what Jesus did for us on the cross is a different word altogether. It doesn't just mean "to cover"—it means "to remit; to do completely away with something." Do you know what that means? It means there is no longer a sin problem. Jesus solved it! When you made Him your Lord, He didn't just cover your sins, He put you into right-standing with God and re-created you by the Spirit of God a...

You Must Forgive Yourself Hebrews 12:1-11 You have heard quite a lot about forgiving those that have offended you – and that you must do. It happens often that the person you must really forgive is yourself. You may have committed an offence or a sin and your conscience has condemned you, just as the Holy Spirit has chastised you. You may also have repented of this sin, confessed it to God and resolved not to go back that way. But you discover that the heaviness, clouded vision, and the erosion of confidence occasioned by the sin you committed continue to weigh you down. At such moments, you need to make another type of confession to God in order to regain your liberty from the weight that holds you down. You have to confess your unbelief in His word that says, “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness” (1 John 1:9). When you have genuinely repented of a sin and confessed it to God; and you have pleaded ...
