TITHE/TITHING IT’S NOT ENOUGH – Until You LIVE The LIFE of – JUSTICE, MERCY AND FAITH (FAITHFULNESS)!

Sometimes people or some Church folks think they can outsmart God in their religion or religious acts. I do really wonder! But why? Probably their thinking is this: Paying up TITHE/TITHING and OFFERING, giving a SPECIAL DONATION to denominational Church/Churches in kind/cash or giving towards CHARITY/CHARITABLE CAUSES and many more such likes, that makes them win God’s heart’s or attention and gives them automatic right or qualifies them into God’s presence or have first class ANSWERS to PRAYERS and or REDEMPTION benefits. Really? I don’t think so Scripturally.

Am SORRY to say the Kingdom of God has NO short cut access or BRIBERY windows for such self consumed or consummated intent. For God can’t be DECEIVED or MOCKED at all, for in Him, you REAP on HOW and WHAT you sow – (Galatians 6:6-8). And it’s simply because there are more important, primary or heavier or weightier matters. It’s called and about LIVING the life of – JUSTICE, MERCY and FAITH/FAITHFULNESS in cause of the OTHER obedience in TITHE/TITHING.

Jesus said, while you OUGHT TO, that is, to pay up your TITHE/TITHING and give towards your CHARITY/CHARITABLE CAUSES, you CAN’T NEGLECT to live WITHOUT the WEIGHTIER matters of life as to – JUSTICE, MERCY and FAITH/FAITHFULNESS.

Therefore, both ends of the coin are not only ESSENTIALS but are CREDENTIALS to avert WOES into one’s LIFE and LIVELIHOOD. This is the VERDICT of the Lord Jesus Christ. You then – THINK. PONDER And MEDITATE. DON’T DECEIVE YOURSELF. It’s WISDOM NUGGETS to your life TODAY and your fulfilment TOMORROW.

“Woe to you, [self-righteous] SCRIBES and PHARISEES, HYPOCRITES! For you give a TENTH (TITHE) of your mint and dill and cumin [focusing on MINOR matters], and have neglected the WEIGHTIER [more important moral and spiritual] provisions of the Law: JUSTICE and MERCY and FAITH [FAITHFULNESS]; but THESE are the [primary] things you OUGHT to have done WITHOUT NEGLECTING the others” Matthew 23:23 (Amplified).

Further Scriptural Reading: Acts 5:1-11; 1 John 1:7 (5-10); Matthew 22:15-22.

Achievers in the kingdom are not just men who are smart but men who are walking in divine plan. For God will only commend what He commands. It’s all about Him working in us, through us, with us and for us.

1Corinthian 15:10 ”But by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace towards me was not in vain; but I labour more abundantly than they all, yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me”

(Bible Search: 2 Cor. 4:7; Phil, 1:6, Rom. 9:16; Ecc. 9:11-12; 2 Cor. 2:1-5; 3:9-23; Jere. 19:11)

COVENANT ACTS OF REDEMPTION

A commemoration Month of celebrating our REDEMPTION from sin:

“Sickness, Poverty and Spiritual Death”

Rev. 5: 9 – 12 ‘’And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation; And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth. And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands; Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to RECEIVE power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honor, and glory, and blessing’’.

No matter our circumstances today, the fact and the truth remains that Jesus had paid for our SIN and liberated us from SIN and its Effect – Sickness, Poverty and Spiritual death. You can walk with your head up, for you are no longer a captive but a victor, not a failure but a success, not a loser but a winner, not a mistake of mistaken Identity or a coincidence but the fearfully, wonderfully custom design in the very image of your maker- The almighty God.

Ephesians 1:3, 7 ‘’Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ . . . In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace’’.

Ephesians 2:4-7 ‘’But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, by (grace ye are saved;) And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: That in the ages to come he might show the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus’’

In Revelation 5:9-11, we can conclude that Jesus did not only die for us but received on our behalf the seven (7) mentioned life issues indicated this book of Revelation. Also, God has given you Beauty for Ashes, Oil of joy for Mourning and the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness (Isaiah 61:3). You are what you are because of what you believe of God and of yourself in Him and in all that Christ has done.

I strongly challenge you today to set your belief in focus, for that will affect how you commemorate and celebrate your “faith” in your Redemption in Christ as shown below:

  • Jesus has been made unto us REDEMPTION, RIGHTEOUSNESS, SANCTIFICATION and WISDOM (1 Corinthians 1:30)
  • He became our SIN that we can be God’s righteousness in Him (2 Corinthians 5:21)
  • He became poor that we might be Rich in Him (2 Corinthians 8:9)
  • He was condemned that we might be justified (Romans 5: 1-21)
  • He bore our sickness and diseases that we might enjoy health (1 Peter 2:24, Isaiah 53:45)
  • We’ve been forgiven and translated from the power of death into the power of life and peace (Colossians 1: 13-14, Ephesians 1:7, 2:1-22 and Hebrew 2: 14-15)
  • For you are more than conquerors. This is true anytime, any day, anywhere and in any circumstances (Romans 8: 37, 2 Corinthians 2: 14-16).
  • Jesus received and restored on our behalf: Power for our fear, Riches for our Poverty, Wisdom for our ignorance and foolishness, Strength for our weakness and limitations, Honour for our reproach, Glory for our Shame and Blessings for all our curses.(Revelation 5:12)

You can make these above mentioned acts of redemption become yours as you pray them into your life until they become seated in your spirit and a lifestyle of daily faith confession and consciousness. Therefore, ARISE! Let’s Commemorate, Celebrate Our Redemption and live FREE for this cause we are saved.
