Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse,

that there may be meat in mine house, and

prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of

hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heav-

en, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall

not be room enough to receive it.

Malachi 3:10

Think about it, you go and get your nails manicured. You go and get your hair treated and even cut off the dead ends. In less than a week’s time, you have to get it done all over again. Life is always growing in you. Nature is always giving you more. Your cells in your body rejuvenate. Your blood keeps pumping. Nature keeps giving you more oxygen, so you can give up more carbon dioxide. Nature is always giving more.

You cannot beat God’s giving. The more you give the more God gives back to you. When you give you force the universe to give back to you, and the universe can never give back to you what you gave to it. That is why the one that gives first in the relationship controls the relationship, because the seed always controls the harvest. So when you enter into a relationship, make a vow to be the first one to give. When you are the first giver, the other person can never give back to you exactly the way you gave to them.  The Lord always demands a harvest.

What form of harvest can you request from the Lord?

When giving becomes a habitual practice very mysterious things will begin to happen in your life. You will suddenly notice you went through a whole year without a head cold; you will not be able to remember the last time you bought medication. You will notice that your children no longer get ill. You will start going through three years and four years and you will notice that you’ve not even received a doctor’s bill. You’ll have to force yourself to go to the doctors just for a checkup. Suddenly, you will begin to notice that in the fifth or sixth year someone is sending you a letter stating your child’s education has been paid in full.

Understand this, the harvest comes in so many different ways and directions, but sometimes we do not know how to identify a harvest when it shows up. You need to be trained to recognize the harvest when it comes. It may not always show up in money. But it will always have a value equal to or far greater than money. Harvests show up in all kinds of different packages. When giving becomes a way of life for you, then you have no problem with getting or shall I say, receiving.

Receiving will become a way of life for you. Lay not treasures up. Do not lay treasures up on this plain. Your heavenly bank account far excels what your earthly bank account can demonstrate. Givers enjoy a level of harvest that most people cannot explain. It’s called the harvest of God’s favor. Another way of looking at it is as the multitudinous harvest—consisting of many parts. The level and quality of the life that I live, I am only living because of my giving.

No man is responsible for my lifestyle. It is not because of you that I am living the way I do.  My harvest is only in sequential order with the laws of the universe.  I am going to ask you, how are you living? Your answer should be, I am living because of my giving. If you are not giving, you are not living. There are so many people that want to get more in life, but in order for getting to be a way of life, you have to commit to a lifestyle of giving. Begin the journey of giving a witness the amazing return of joy, peace, happiness, and unlimited supply coming toward you from every direction.

How can you increase your level of giving and living this week?

Have you ever heard a gospel that taught you to do without?  First off, that was not the Lord thy God and neither was it good news. I am the lord thy God, which teacheth thee to profit. Someone may ask, “What do you have to say when people talk about the fact that you are into money, and the Bible says that it is wrong to lay up treasures on this earth?” Great question! “I tell them that is why when I preach I tell them not to “lay it up”

and “give it up.” Give it to me!

The people that have the most problems with giving are those that are laying it up.  You will only keep what you give away, but you lose what you hold onto. Well, “What do you have to say about Jesus, who was seemingly poor?”  I say, “Oh, no, Jesus was not poor.” He called twelve men off their job and said, “Follow me.” Most men cannot call their woman off her job. In most American household, if the woman stopped working none of the bills would get paid. Jesus was far from poor. Jesus fed 5,000 men, not counting women and children, and most have to save up money just to feed a wedding party at a reception without a problem.

Jesus clothing were commensurate to the Versace, Brioni, and the Armani of his day. He had tailor made garments. Even at the crucifixion they were casting lots for his garment.  Your garments have to be extremely costly for people to gamble for them. And Jesus said, get me an ass, which a man never sat on. Jesus was riding into Jerusalem on the Rolls Royce of his day. He did not want a used one, he said, “Get me one which a man never sat on.”

“Why was he born in a manager?” Jesus was born in a manger, to show you that you too can overcome any odds. I do not care what you are born in, you could be homeless today, but you could be calling men off their jobs tomorrow. You could be homeless today, but you could be wearing fine garments tomorrow. You could be homeless today, but telling people, “Get me a Rolls Royce that a man never sat on.” I want you to know that, where you are today, does not speak to your tomorrow. You can overcome the odds!

In this hour, people want more than teaching. People want to see demonstration. People hate to take tests. Most churches do not give you any tests. You could sit there for 50 years, and they will keep you in kindergarten. You will never get a GED there. They keep giving you building blocks to play with. They will keep you “at the cross.” There is nothing wrong with the cross, but Jesus did not hang around the cross. He did not even  hang around the tomb. Even when He was resurrected, He folded up His napkin, got it accurately arranged, so that he would not have to come back to it again.

What are the odds God is calling you to overcome?

Have you ever thrown out a suggestion to someone and they said, “I’m not really feeling that idea?” What were they actually confessing? They were saying that they could not align themselves with the idea until they felt it within. Before people can give anything of themselves they must first fee. A woman does not give a man herself in marriage, and vice versa until first there is an exchange of feeling. You have never made a purchase for a car, a home, clothing, until you first felt that purchase. You felt the thing that you were purchasing.

Nothing happens in the universe until it is first felt. Jesus could not die a sacrificial death for humanity until He first felt it.

 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities . . .

Hebrews 4:15

Feeling is the motivation to get things accomplished in the earth realm. And your feeling has to be mix with faith. You have to believe!

In the same way that you have to feel your friends, your family, a salesperson, a theory, or a new teaching before you buy into it, God also must feel your feeling towards the thing you desire before He can fund your vision.

God has to be able to say, “I’m feeling that, so I can invest into it.”  To invest into something that you don’t feel make you and God a bad stewards and a waster of resources. Only sow into that which you are feeling. And only feel that which requires

How can you get rich and stay rich? God helps us to be so.

God really does not hear what you say with your mouth. There are so many people that have spent time on their knees in prayer crying out to God yet have not received any answers to their prayers. The first thing is that prayer is not you always voicing your opinions, concerns, and request to God. Prayer is a dialog not a monolog. So as much as you speak, you should listen within your heart to hear what God is saying.  God is always speaking, but you must quiet yourself long enough to hear what He is saying to you. Note that I said that you should listen within your heart to hear what God is saying. If you listen in your heart to hear what God is saying, then what do you suppose God listens to, to hear what you are saying? God only hears what you say in your consciousness. God only hears you heart.

You ask, “I thought that you were supposed to say the right things and speak forth words that are positive?”  That is true. But the major thing here is that your words alone are really meaningless.Your words must be accompanied by feeling.  You have to feel it in your heart. If there is any doubt in you that you cannot receive or achieve that which you have spoken, then God cannot hear you.  You then disconnect yourself from spirit. You disconnect yourself from spirit not because you said the wrong words, or said the wrong things, but rather because you felt the wrong vibration when you spoke. God reaches to feel you. If he cannot feel you, He does not answer you. The only prayers that get answered are felt-prayers. You do not get fulfillment until there is full-feel-ment. If there is no feeling, there is not going to be any filling. That is why, even when Jacob was getting ready to get blessed by Isaac, he said:

Come close so that I might feel thee. I want to see if you are my very son.

Are you just saying you want to be rich? Are you not feeling it?

As with any subject, the best way to learn is through repetition. Repetition is the mother of learning. When you keep repeating something over and over and over and over again, eventually it will begin to stick. In time it will connect, and bring you into your destiny. Repetition brings you into the proper alignment, if you are repeating the right things. The rich become and stay rich because they have learned the secrets of the wealthy and they repeat those secrets, not just once in a while but every single day until the repetitions become a habit.

Once those repeated secrets become your habit, then they become your character, and in time you will live perpetually of the fruits of you reverberations. Successful people very often do the same things over and over until they get the desired result. The poor lack the patience and the perseverance to do something long enough to get different results. The rich do not invest every once in a while; they invest all of the time. Investing for them is a repeated habit.

A man who enjoys a six-pack abdominal section, with a thirty-three inch waistline, with a forty-six inch chest built to last did not get his figure just from going to the gym once or twice. He received his figure from working out repeatedly. The famous rapper L. L. Cool J is not only known for his rapping and musical genius, but also for having a really good physique. If you ask him how did he get his figure he’ll be the first to admit that he worked out every single day for years.

And even now, he still works hard at maintaining his physical status by working out daily. Great basketball players practice on the court every day. Great writers don’t write every now and then. They write every day!  Prolific preachers don’t preach only when they show up for service on Sunday morning, no, they are rehearsing the sermon in their imagination all of the time, so when the opportunity to share good tidings arrives they are ready. Repetition does not just make you rich it prepares you for riches.
