THE BLESSING OF THE LORD, IT MAKETH RICH ! Notice: that verse doesn't say God will pour out BLESSINGS (plural), it says a BLESSING (singular). It's referring to THE BLESSING that includes all other blessings. When we bring the title to our High Priest, not to fulfill a legalistic, religious requirements like the priest in Malachi's day, but in an attitude of faith in THE BLESSING, the stingy spirit that sometimes tries to get on us disappears and we become cheerful givers. Tithing becomes a privilege and a thrill because we're doing it in response to the fact that God Almighty has BLESSED us with everything He is and everything He has. Instead of begrudging Him the 10th% that's His, we bring it to Him with joy, knowing He has made us heirs of the whole world. When we tithe with that attitude, it hits us that this BLESSING is so big, we can't contain it ! That's when it starts pouring out of us into the lives of others, expanding The Garden of Eden wherever we go. I'll warn you, though, religion will try to talk you all of the prosperity of THE BLESSING before you get to that point. Religion will tell you it's humble and pleasing to God for you to stay poor, broke, and sick in your body as well as your mind. It will brainwash you into saying ridiculous things like, "I really don't need that prosperity message. My family and I can get by on a modest income. We're not looking to get rich." There's only one word to describe that attitude--- selfish. Maybe you and your family can get by on minimum wage, but what about the work of God ? What about your pastor ? What about the poor and the homeless ? Why don't you believe God for about 10,000 a week, take out your modest income, and sow the rest into the kingdom of God ? We all should think seriously about those questions because one thing is sure: if we don't choose to walk in THE BLESSING, we'll have to answer for it when we stand before the judgment seat of Christ. Did Abraham make himself rich ? No, God Almighty made Abraham rich ! We'll have to explain to Him why we chose to leave our abundant financial harvest in the field to rot when there was a world full of people in need of it. We'll have to give an account for why we acted so selfishly and irresponsibly. Why do you think, so many men and women start what is called church ? It is because they are doing numerology; they are counting money ! That's tough talk, I know, but really not tough enough. God is fed up with poverty mentality among His people. He has had it with lying religion that goes around telling people that God wants them poor, broke, depressed and sick; while he That lives in a big expensive palace and paves His streets with gold. As we used to say in North Texas, "that old dog ain't gonna hunt nor more." God has been pouring out Revelation from His WORD about prosperity for the past 50 years, and if we don't walk in it, well be accountable to Him for it when this age is over. That's not only true in the realm of finances. It applies to every other aspect of THE BLESSING as well, because there are people all around us who need the benefits of that BLESSING. They need healing and deliverance, they need preservation, they need sound minds. They need to experience the peace of God in some area of their lives, and Jesus, The High Priest, has sent us as His priests, to minister those things to them. We are BLESSD by Him so we can take THE BLESSING to them !
