PASTORS, RESPECT EVERYBODY BUT NEVER ALLOW ANY MAN TO BE CALLED YOUR SPONSOR OR MAJOR FINANCIER IN MINISTRY
DON’T PLAY WITH YOUR TITHING AND GIVING.
I DO NOT PREACH THE COVENANT OF SUPERNATURAL SUPPLY BECAUSE I READ IT OR SOMEBODY TAUGHT ME. I SAW IT IN THE SCRIPTURE AND I HAVE BEEN PRACTICING IT RIGHT FROM THE HIGHER INSTITUTION.
I WAS NOT DOING IT BECAUSE I WAS GOING TO BE A PREACHER, I WAS DOING IT BECAUSE I WAS A CHRISTIAN AND I SAW THE RESULTS.
THIS CHURCH TITHE FOR TWENTY SOMETHING YEARS NOW AND OUR LEVEL IN TITHING HAS SHIFTED, IT IS BEYOND TEN PER CENT RIGHT NOW, OTHERWISE, WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO HANDLE ANYTHING HERE.
WHAT WE PAY FOR POWER EVERY MONTH HERE AS A CHURCH CAN BUILD A BIG CHURCH.
THE BUDGET OF GOD ONLY COVERS FOR THE PROJECT OF GOD. ANYTHING THAT YOU DO THAT IS OUTSIDE HIS PROJECT IS OUTSIDE HIS BUDGET.
IF YOU WANT TO BE A FIRE, PRESENT YOURSELF A LIVING SACRIFICE; ANYWHERE GOD SEES SACRIFICE, YOU DON’T BEG FOR FIRE.
WHEN YOU LOOK UP TO MAN, YOU ARE LOOKING AWAY FROM RESOURCES.
- Dr Pastor Paul Enenche on “FIRE FOR DESTINY FULFILMENT” || THE WIND AND FIRE OF REVIVAL
International Ministers Flaming Fire Conference 2022|| Dunamis International Gospel Centre|| Worship, Word and Wonder Night (Part D).
Stones that the builders reject are becoming the head of the corner; the Lord’s doing that is marvelous in our eyes. Somebody came here the other day he said, “Haaaa, I saw so and so Ambassador in the meeting, my passport has been in their embassy for almost 4 months, please any assistance?
“It is done; it’s out under one week.”
You want to be a fire? Present yourself a living sacrifice. I have said so many things about the secrets of fire from morning, I will just give you this one: “Present your body a living sacrifice.” Anywhere God sees sacrifice, you don’t beg for fire.
PRAYER:
- I am a fire; a light carrier, a light bearer in the name of Jesus. I am a joy giver, I am a hope giver, I am a warm provider, I am a strength giver, I am a life cleanser, I am a restoration agent, I am an eradication agent, I am an attraction in the name of Jesus!
I surrender my life as a living sacrifice as I function as a flaming fire in my generation. I receive the fresh grace to function as a flaming fire in my generation!
(Altar Call)
One of the things that God has designed to happen from this Conference is a financial resources revival, lay up gold like dust. Very massive resources flow until money practically loses value.
Father, we give You the praise.
I want you to write down ten keys to financial resources revival (Haggai 2:9-10). In this end time revival, what is your key to financial resources?
1). Make God your pursuit above every other pursuit because His glory He won’t share with another.
2). Make the purpose of God become your personal purpose; let God wants become what you want (Matthew 6:33). Church Gist. I was talking to someone the other day and I told him, I don’t have any assignment in this world other than crusades, church planting and every other thing; anything that will make those happen.
I am not looking to build a house; I am not looking for a house, I am not looking for a car to drive (I don’t know the last time I bought a car), most cars that I drive are cars that came. I am not looking for clothes to wear. Give me one billion now, it will perish on crusades; it will lay down its life for church planting, even one shoe I will not buy out of it. Make God’s purpose become your personal purpose.
3). Never look up to man. Pastor, church members, businessman, whoever you are; never look up to man. When you look up to man, you are looking away from resources and from good (Jeremiah 17:5-6). Church Gist. Don’t ever let any big man in church pocket your ministry; respect everybody but never allow anybody to be called a sponsor or the major financier of the ministry, you just lose relevance and as it is for a church pastor, so it is for an individual (Genesis 14:21-23).
4). Don’t embark on what God has not commanded (Exodus 35:29). God placed on the people the spirit of sacrifice to bring towards what He has commanded. Don’t be involved in competition, don’t do things because you see your friends in ministry doing them, don’t do things because you see your colleagues in ministry doing them. Don’t do things because you feel like, “I am even better than this man, but see how he’s succeeding, he has a television station, he has this and that.”
Don’t embark on what God has not commanded because the budget of God only covers for the project of God. Church Gist. Anything that you do that is outside His project is outside His budget and as it is for a ministry, so it is for an individual. You want to invest, find out does God want you to put your money there? Not every line of business is your line.
5). Be faithful, be accountable (Proverbs 28:20). Pastors, if you raise an offering for something, let it be used for that thing. You don’t raise an offering or take an offering in church for one thing and use it for another thing. Also, let it be clear to the people that you are faithful and you are accountable.
As a pastor, I don’t have one single chequebook of this church in my possession, church ministry cheque is the custody of the account department. Personal cheque is even in the custody of my wife, I can’t sign any money at will at any time, there are processes and checks, where this is going and what this is going for (Proverbs 28:20). Church Gist. If you are not faithful, God will never entrust you with anything and as an individual, be faithful and accountable. Be faithful to God, don’t be involved in anything that is crooked.
6). Don’t mix up ministry resources with personal resources (1 Chronicles 29:1-3). When people bring an offering and they say, this is for God, don’t pocket it. If it is yours, they will tell you, if it is not yours and they say, this is for God, direct it where it should go because God is watching all these things. Let there be that demarcation; where there is no financial order, there can be no progress and financial wonder because the Church money is not yours.
Even for those who have business and the business is yours, still order it. Yes, we know the whole business is yours but let the business capital be different from expendable resources that you can spend so that the business can grow. You can place yourself on a salary, you don’t dip your hand into the capital for the business and use it to meet personal needs, relation needs and expect to reach anywhere. Let there be a demarcation between what belongs to you as a person and what belongs to what you do.
7). Possess the vision for supernatural supply. What you can see is what God will give (Genesis 13:15, Proverbs 4:23). Church Gist. I’ll like you to see yourself with abundance of resources, just picture yourself in the realm of affluence that is necessary for the Kingdom. Delete the picture of scarcity, shortage and poverty from your life.
- Possess the revelation from the Word for supernatural supply; let the Word of God show you what is yours, how much resources you can access, because the things that are revealed, they belong to us (Deuteronomy 29:29). When I saw scriptures that say I will fill this house with gold, I asked myself, “if God should fill this building with gold, how long will it take for us to spend it?”
9). Avoid the lifestyle of waste. Everyone who is a waste will never experience the resources of God (Luke 15:13-14). Church Gist. I will like you to ensure that everything wasting around you is arrested. Some time ago, we did something called ‘Operation Eliminate Waste’ right here, where there are scrabs of things to sell off, you sell them off. Where there are things to be turned into resources, do that. Let God sees that you are a prudent resources manager. Avoid waste so you can establish wealth.
- Avoid the ownership mentality of ministry (Matthew 16:17-18). It is God who builds His church, it is only when it is His church that He will build it; if it is your church, you will build it, but if it is His church, He will build it. So ensure that in the eye of God and in your eyes and in the eyes of everybody watching, the Church belongs to God.
For those of us in business, when we say avoid ownership mentality, what it translates to you is, enter into partnership with God. Let God be a partner in what you do, don’t just own it; “Lord, I involve You in this business, You are the major Shareholder of this business. Church Gist. I want You to own it and let me partner with You.” I have seen Christians who did that and the level of explosion they saw.
- Walk consistently in the covenant of supernatural supply (Genesis 9:22, 2 Corinthians. 9:6-7). As a individual and as a pastor you tithe, you don’t just receive tithe from members, you tithe. This Church tithe for twenty something years now, in fact, our level in tithing has shifted, it is beyond ten per cent right now, otherwise, we will not be able to handle anything here. What we pay for power, if you go around this premises, you can see all the light everywhere, the sound and everything; what we pay for power every month can build a big church.
Walk consistently, as an individual, don’t play with your tithing and giving. I was telling somebody the other day, I said, I do not preach the covenant of supernatural supply because I read it or somebody taught me. I saw it in the scripture and I practice it thirty something years ago from the High Institution, I wasn’t doing it because I was going to be a preacher. I was doing it because I was a Christian and I saw the results.
12). Be tirelessly grateful for what you see. To be grateful is to be fruitful (John 6:11). Appreciation will bring multiplication; don’t compare yourself with other people, you don’t know the full story of other people. Church Gist. When we were growing in ministry, some were taking loan from bank and doing many things and we thought that it was the blessing that was coming, it was when they began to look for them and look for the money they borrowed on loan that we knew they assisted themselves.
Run with these twelve points, we told our church people, never you say no money, there is always money. Ensure that appreciation surrounds everything we do and I believe that we shall be blessed.
- Without any doubt, your finances of ministry is about to jump!
- Your personal finances and personal resources are about to jump and leap!
