Bring you all the tithes into the storehouse, that

and prove me now herewith, said the LORD of hosts,
if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour
you out a blessing, that there shall not be room
enough to receive it.
 Malachi 3:8-11
"Will a man rob God? Yet you rob me. "But you ask, `How do we

rob you?' "In tithes and offerings. 9You are under a curse--the
whole nation of you--because you are robbing me. 10Bring the
whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my
house. Test me in this," says the LORD Almighty, "and see if I
will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so
much blessing that you will not have room enough for it. 11I will
prevent pests from devouring your crops, and the vines in your
fields will not cast their fruit," says the LORD Almighty.

13
Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the
law, being made a curse for us: for it is written,
“Cursed is every one that hangs on a tree” 14 That
the blessing of Abraham might come on the
Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might
receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.
 HOW TO BENEFIT FINANCIAL
PROSPERITY?

that you, always having all sufficiency in all things, may
abound to every good work.
 Offering
• Is above the tithe

you use, it will be measured to you.
Principles Of
Sowing And
Reaping
1. BELIEVE THAT YOU HAVE A SEED
TO SOW

2 Corinthians 9:10
10
“Now he who supplies seed to the sower
and bread for food will also supply and
increase your store of seed and will enlarge
the harvest of your righteousness.”
2. PLANT A PRECIOUS SEEDS

2 SAMUEL 24:22-25
Araunah said to David, “Let my Lord the king take
22

whatever pleases him and offering, and here are

threshing sledges and ox yokes for the wood. 23O
king, Araunah gives all this to the king.” Araunah
also said to him, “May the Lord your God accept
you.”
2. PLANT A PRECIOUS SEEDS
2 SAMUEL 24:22-25
But the king replied to Araunah, “no, I insist on paying for it. I
24

will not sacrifice to the Lord my God burnt offerings that cost me
nothing.” So David bought the threshing floor and the oxen and
paid fifty shekels of silver for them. 25David built an altar to the
Lord there and sacrificed burnt offerings and fellowship offerings.
Then the Lord answered prayer in behalf of the land, and the
plague on Israel was stopped.”
2. PLANT A PRECIOUS SEEDS
2 Corinthians 9:7
7
“Each man should give what he has
decided in his heart to give, not reluctantly
or under compulsion, for God loves a
cheerful giver.”
3. PLANT YOUR SEEDS ON GOOD
GROUND

Philippians 4:14-19
14
Yet it was good of you to share in my troubles.
15
Moreover, as you Philippians know, in the early days of
your acquaintance with the gospel, when I set out from
Macedonia, not one church shared with me in the matter
of giving and receiving, except you only; 16for even when
I was in Thessalonica, you sent me aid again and again
when I was in need.
3. PLANT YOUR SEEDS ON GOOD
GROUND

Philippians 4:14-19
17
Not that I am looking for a gift, but I am looking for what
may be credited to your account. 18I have received full
payment and even more; I am amply supplied, now that I
have received from Epaphroditus the gifts you sent. They
are a fragrant offering, an acceptable sacrifice, pleasing
to God. 19And my God will meet all your needs according
to his glorious riches in Christ Jesus.
 4. LET YOUR SEEDS DIE
John 12:24
“I tell you the truth, unless a kernel of
24

wheat falls to the ground and dies, it

remains only a single seed. But if it dies, it
produces many seeds.”
 5. WATER YOUR SEEDS
Zechariah 14:17-18
17
“If any of the peoples of the earth do not go up
to Jerusalem to worship the King, the Lord
Almighty, they will have no rain. 18If the Egyptian
people do not go up and take part, they will have
no rain. The Lord will bring on them the plague he
inflicts on the nations that do not go up to
celebrate The Feast of Tabernacles.”
 6. EXPECT THE
HARVEST
2 Corinthians 9:6
“Remember this; Whoever sows sparingly
6

will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows

generously will also reap generously.”
 6. EXPECT THE HARVEST
Luke 6:38
38
“Give, and it will be given to you. A good
measure, pressed down, shaken together
and running over, will be poured into your
lap. For with the measure you use, it will be
measured to you.”
 6. EXPECT THE HARVEST
Malachi 3:10
“Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that
there may be food in my house. Test me on this.”
says the Lord Almighty, “and see if Il will not
throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out
so much blessing that you will not have room
enough for it.”
 7. LEARN TO WAIT FOR THE
HARVEST
James 5:7
7
“Be patient, then, brothers, until the Lord’s
coming. See how the farmer waits for the land
to yield its valuable crop and how patient he is
for the autumn and spring rains.”sssss
