  2. TITLE: PROSPERING GOD’S WAY

  3. 1. TIMOTHY 6:9-10 “Those who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap and into many foolish and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction.

  4. For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs.”NIV

  5. PROSPTERITY • Comes from a Latin word prosperitas, which means • Doing well, a long period of peace • In Greek: wealth, gain, plenty and success

  6. God wants believers to prosper3 John 1:2, Jeremiah 29:11 • “Beloved, I pray that in all respects you may prosper and be in good health, just as your soul prospers.” (NKJV)

  7. God’s blessings bring Prosperity.Proverbs 10:22 • “It is the blessing of the LORD that makes rich, And He adds no sorrow to it.” (NASB)

  8. 1. YOU MUST HAVE A VISION AND PURPOSE. Deutronomy 8:19 • "But you shall remember the LORD your God, for it is He who is giving you power to make wealth, that He may confirm His covenant which He swore to your fathers, as it is this day.

  9. “Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he. Proverbs” 29:18 KJV

  10. Psalms 49:20 • People who have wealth but lack understanding are like the beasts that perish. (NSTB)

  11. 2 Corinthians 9:10 • “And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work”

  12. 2. BE DILIGENT IN YOUR WORKPROVERBS 13:4 • “Lazy people want much but get little, but those who work hard will” prosper. (NLT)

  13. Diligence brings promotionProverb 12:24 • Those who work hard will be put in charge of others, but lazy people will have to work like slaves. (ESV)

  14. Be committed to your work • Do your work with excellence • You will grow and multiply

  15. 3.FOLLOW EVERY INSTRUCTION FROM THE WORD. JOSH1 :8 • “This book of the Law shall not depart out of your mouth, but you shall meditate on it by day and by night”,

  16. so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it. For then you shall make your way prosperous, and then you shall act wisely. (MKJV)

  17. You can choose to prosper your way or God’s way • Prosperity that does not come from the Lord comes with pain.

  18. 4.KEEP YOUR BOOKS CLEANROMANS 13:6-9 • “So you must obey the government, not just because you might be punished, but because you know it is the right thing to do. And this is why you pay taxes too. ………

  19. Those rulers are working for God, and they give all their time to the work of ruling.Giveeveryone what you owe them. If you owe them any kind of tax, then pay it. Show respect to those you should respect. And show honor to those you should honor.” (ERV)

  20. 5. PAY YOUR TITHEMalachi 3:8-11 • “Will a man rob God? Yet you have robbed Me. But you say, In what have we robbed You? In the tithe and the offering! You are cursed with a curse; for you are robbing Me, the nation, all of it………

  21. Bring all the tithe into the storehouse, so that there may be food in My house. And test Me now with this, says Jehovah of Hosts, to see if I will not open the windows of Heaven for you, and pour out a blessing for you, until there is not enough room………

  22. And I will rebuke your devourer, and he shall not decay the fruit of your ground against you; nor shall your vine miscarry against you in the field, says Jehovah of Hosts. (MKJV)

  23. When you give tithe you are honoring God • It is a covenant offering • It opens the window of heaven • It brings blessings • It brings protection • It shows your trust in God

  24. TESTIMONY ON TITHE. #1 “I have for the most of my life known that I should Tithe, but I always justified through my giving to the needy, support to extended family in form of school fees, ………….

  25. tough economic times, at times I even felt like the church was putting pressure on me over my hard earned money……

  26. I did lift my hands but in me I was like is it really possible....... anyway after that I was like, I will give it a trial,help me God!!.

  27. One sunday you preached on this topic and at the end you asked us the congregation to lift our hands and asked God for forgiveness where we have not been faithful with our Tithe. ………..

  28. I started by giving Tithe of a 5 figure digit and the Lord kept increasing the Zeros, obviously is was a struggle but I obeyed. In the past 2 years or so I have seen the Lord open doors I never even knew existed. The Lord has been so faithful He has blessed me and my family,

  29. He has kept away the pests, those issues that used to drain us financially the Lord has sealed them, He has blessed us with staff who are not wasteful and careless, He has given me favor, I have been promoted at work with a good package.

  30. Paying Tithe has taught me to trust upon the Lord as my PROVIDER and not what I earn , I have learnt to be realist with God by separating GIVING and TITHE.

  31. It doesn't mean I don't have problems in my life but what I can testify is the difference I have experienced since I started Tithing. ……..

  32. Am not a high profile Pentecostal am a normal born again Christian with normal struggles in life but Tithing has made such a difference in my life I wish I had started earlier.” by (DPC Member)

  33. TESTIMONY #2 (DPC MEMBER) • “I have been born again for a long time but I didn’t give tithe. I thought because I am a servant of God serving through singing and preaching, I should eat my tithe.

  34. I didn’t know that pastors and other servant of God give tithe. I would give my offerings to orphans widows and I thought it was enough.

  35. One year ago I come Dar es Salaam and I join DPC. I learnt about Giving and I started giving tithe without having a permanent job. Whatever money I got whether small or big, I gave my tithe faithfully.

  36. Miraculously God has given me a very good job and has blessed me in other areas in my life.”

  37. We are called to be Holy
