Look people, when it comes to money, thats where many jump ship. I mean its your money and you worked hard for it. Giving your money is the closest thing to human sacrifice and why God looks at it with the deepest sincerity. I mean thats forty hours of you life if not more. Now, when you give it is just as important as how you give it.
A sower went about to so and some seed fell here and some there, but only the seed that fell on good ground produced 30, 60, and 100 fold. If you give your money to a prosperity (word of faith) preacher. He just stole your money. If, you give to a preacher that preaches the cross and show the fruit of salvation. Then you have sown into good ground. But did you give with a malice heart or did you give it cheerfully.
Understand that satan is after the tithes and offerings, because he know that the church cannot operate with out money. Think about it, did you like the fact that lights were on, and the sound system worked, or in winter, did you like the fact that it was warm in the church. Do you like the fact that your church can provide food for the hungry. It is all made possible by your tithes and offerings.
So you don't want to do that, thats okay, because if you don't. God will go get a drunk out from under the bridge and bless him financially and put in his heart to give, so that His gospel will be preached.
If had the finance and didn't give a portion to the preaching of the gospel, I would fear standing before Him.
