CHAPTER 1
WORLDWIDE FINANCIAL CRISIS IS
HERE
Whether you or the world know it or not, we are living in a time of great
financial perplexity unparalleled in human history!
In the past few years we have witnessed some of the worst natural disasters
than in many decades.

August 17, 1999

Turkey:
A 7.8 earthquake hit Turkey and the death toll reached over 17,000.
Turkish Prime Minister, Bulent Ecevit, described it as the worst natural disaster
he had ever seen.
October 1998
 Central America:
Hurricane Mitch was the worst natural disaster to hit Central America in
200 years! More than 11,000 people were killed and three million were left
homeless. Aid agencies said that the damage set the development of the region
back by 20 years.
January 2001
India:

More than 20,000 were killed in 7.9 earthquake, the worst in 50 years. The
estimated damage was between four and five billion dollars.
On every hand there is political upheaval, turmoil and civil wars.
 KOSOVO:
An estimated 1.5 million ethnic Albanians were forced from their homes by
the first week of May 1999. Serb forces torched hundreds of villages and
massacred hundreds of Albanian men, women and children. One hundred
thousand ethnic Albanian men were missing and tens of thousands were feared
to have been killed.
SUDAN:
What is happening now in Sudan is the greatest human tragedy of the 20th
century. In the past eighteen years, more than two million people died because of
the civil war and resulting famines. Four million were forced to flee from their
homes.
SIERRA LEONE and LIBERIA:
For more than ten years, Sierra Leone and Liberia, on the Ivory Coast, have
been devastated by violent civil war and unrest. More than 20,000 people have
been killed and almost one-half of Sierra Leone's population of 4.5 million have
been forced to flee from their homes.
INDONESIA:
Since the violence erupted two years ago, 8,000 people, both Muslims and
Christians, have been killed and 500,000 have been forced to flee for their lives.
Muslims have declared a "holy war" on Christians and have burned entire
villages, slaughtering men, women and children.
CHECHNYA:
Thousands of civilians and troops died in the 1994-96 Checken war.
Although the war ended, violence continues and a spirit of lawlessness prevails.
The turmoil in the Middle East continues and the peace talks between Israel
and the PLO, at this writing, have reached a bloody stalemate. Relations between
the United States and China are strained over the recent downing of the U.S.
surveillance jet and the United States commitment to protect Taiwan in the event
of an attack by China.
Everywhere we look there is great instability. There is fear, pain, turmoil
and a sense of hopelessness.
Our world is in turmoil. Currently, there are major crises of all types in
almost every nation. Jesus said that one of the signs that would be prevalent
before His coming would be a time of great perplexity in the nations. He said,
11And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars;
and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and waves
roaring." (Luke 21:25)
The word "perplexity" in this verse is translated from the Greek word
"aporia" meaning "no way out". It refers to a time when the nations will
find no solution to their problems, people will reach their wits end and all will be
at a loss how to proceed.
A MAJOR FINANCIAL CRISIS IS NOW
SHAKING THE NATIONS!
The International Monetary Fund fears that the seeds of a global financial
recession will grip the world!
The Federal Reserve Board is fearfully cutting current rates at an
unprecedented pace to ward off this economic worldwide disaster.
In addition to these natural disasters and the political crises plaguing the
world, there is a worldwide financial crisis looming on the horizon! Nations are
being shaken as stock markets fall to record levels and large corporations are
forced to cut thousands from their payrolls.
In this book, I want to focus on this current worldwide financial situation
and share with you, prophetically, what God has shown me about it and how He
will provide for His Church in the midst of such turmoil the world has never
seen.
111 counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be
rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy
nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest
see”
Revelation y.18
I want you to be able to see beyond the natural circumstances. It is my
prayer, as you read this book, that God will anoint your eyes and flood your
heart with revelation knowledge. To the natural eye and the natural
understanding, it may seem as if the world is chaotically reeling out of
control...that there is no hope...no answers to the crises we face.
In your own personal circumstances and financial situation, you may feel
like you are going under but, if you recognize your place in God's Kingdom, you
will not! You will go over!
God will bring you through victorious! He preserved Noah, He took Enoch,
He kept the children of Israel from the death angel that came over Egypt and He
will preserve His children, the oil and the wine, from the Black horse rider.
 God's promise to you today is that you will you be able to face the chaotic
conditions and current worldwide financial crisis without fear, knowing He will
supernaturally meet your needs. Even in the midst of the financial needs you
face, you can know that you can go to Him and draw whatever you need from
His storehouse! His reservoir of the riches of Christ - He has stored up for you.
THE WORD OF THE LORD TO US IS, "FEAR
NOT!"
God never intended for you to be taken by surprise, caught off guard or
unprepared for the things coming upon the earth before Christ's return. Jesus
warned about the very things that we see happening before our eyes. He warned
about the persecution, which is now taking place around the world. One hundred
million Christians were martyred during the twentieth century, more than in the
previous nineteen combined! Today, nearly one-half of all Christians in the
world suffer persecution because of their faith.
Jesus warned about the wars, violent earthquakes, famines, epidemic
diseases and plagues that we see happening. He described the condition of the
world before His return.
Jesus said:
11And there will be signs in the sun and moon and stars, and upon the
earth distress (trouble and anguish) of nations in bewilderment and perplexity
(that is, without resources, left wanting, embarrassed, in doubt, not knowing
which way to turn) at (the echo) the roaring of the tossing of the sea; [Isa.
13:10; Joel 2:10; Zeph. i:15] Men swooning away or expiring with fear and
dread and apprehension and expectation of things that are coming upon the
world; for the [very] powers of the heavens will be shaken and caused to totter.
And then they will see the Son of man coming in a cloud with great
(transcendent and overwhelming) power and [all His Kingly] glory (majesty and
splendor)."
Luke 21:25-27, AMP
Jesus saw through the ages and described what we now face in the twenty-
first century. If ever there was a time of distress among the nations, it is the day
in which we live! We face crises for which the leading politicians, scientists,
doctors and economists have no answers. I do not know one economist or
analyst that sees into the future. They all operate from a reactionary point of
view. From that perspective, it is too late to do anything about your
circumstance.
After Jesus warned of the coming crises, he said, "And when you hear of
wars and insurrections - disturbances, disorder and confusion - do not become
alarmed and panic-stricken and terrified; for all this must take place first, but
the end will not [come] immediately." (Luke 21:9, AMP)
He said, "Now when these things begin to occur, look up and lift up your
heads, because your redemption (deliverance) is drawing near!' (Luke 21:28,
AMP)
In the current worldwide financial crisis and in your private financial
circumstances the Word of the Lord to you is,"Fear Not!"
One of the first things to attack your mind when you face financial
problems and crises is a spirit of fear. If you keep your eyes on your problems,
you will become fearful. The more you look at your circumstances, the more
impossible they will seem, until you no longer expect God to meet your needs.
I will never forget how God spoke to me during one of the most
challenging times of my life and ministry and gave me a Rhema Word that has
taken me from victory to victory. I was in my hotel room, prior to a seminar I
was holding in Washington, D.C. While I was in prayer, God spoke these words
to my heart:
GOD SAID...
Don't look to the bigness of your need Look to the bigness of your God!
Your circumstances are hindrances to seeing MY ABILITIES...
If you keep your eyes on your circumstances, the devil will use your
circumstances to defeat you and accuse the Word of God... the written and the
Living Word.
YOUR VICTORY is in keeping your eyes on the bigness of your God and
His ability HE HAS PROMISED to take you STEP by STEP by STEP... not all
at once.....
But step...
By step and...
Each step will be a Miracle!
Nothing has strengthened me more, in my entire ministry, than the comfort
and constant guidance I received from those words. I created a beautiful blue
plaque made with lifetime durable plastic with the message inscribed in raised
gold lettering. Please see the enclosed envelope on how you can receive this
beautiful plaque to display in your home! You should get several of these
plaques to place throughout your home.
 Whatever your problem is right now... a domestic problem, financial need,
sickness unto death...whatever that circumstance is, determine not to allow that
circumstance to defeat you. Your victory will come as you keep your eyes on the
bigness of your God. He will lead you and each step will be a miracle.
Fear will blind you from receiving God's promises into your spirit and will
stop you from receiving your financial breakthroughs. In chapter two, I will
share with you more about how to break the spirit of fear and experience a
financial breakthrough where you will be able to look at your financial problems
and laugh in the devil's face!
God wants you to be prepared
God intends for you to know what is coming so you will be prepared to
face it without fear.
Prophecy is the drawing away of the veil of darkness. It's purpose is to
warn and prepare you, not scare you. God chooses to reveal specific events and
things that will occur to His prophets to prepare and warn His people.
"Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his
servants the prophets"
Amos 3:7
God always used His prophets to warn of coming judgments so the people
would not bring His judgment upon themselves. He used Noah to warn of the
coming flood, Abraham and Lot to warn of the future destruction of Sodom,
Joseph to warn and prepare the people for seven years of famine and Elisha to
warn about the famine in Samaria.
In the early church, God used Agabus, one of the prophets from Jerusalem,
to prophesy and warn the believers in Antioch concerning a famine, which was
coming upon the entire earth.
"And during these days prophets - inspired teachers and interpreters of the
divine will and purpose -came down from Jerusalem to Antioch. And one of them
named Agabus stood up and prophesied through the (Holy) Spirit that there
would be a great and severe famine come upon the whole world. And this did
occur during the reign of Claudius!'
Acts 11:27-28, AMP
Notice the response to this prophetic word. Immediately upon hearing it,
the disciples acted, "...every man according to his individual ability - in
proportion as he had prospered - to the brethren who lived in Judea." (verse 29)
They did not hesitate nor try to reason why God was allowing judgment and for
His people to go through it. They believed the Word spoken through the prophet
and acted.
The disciples in Antioch did not respond in fear nor did they selfishly
stockpile supplies and hide them for themselves. They responded, in unison, by
giving an offering to help the needy Christians living in Judea. They were not
coerced or pushed into giving the offering. It was a spontaneous reaction
motivated by their love for their brethren in need.
God placed prophets within the Body of Christ, as part of the five-fold
ministry, for a specific purpose. God uses prophets today to give spiritual focus
and direction, to reveal His plan and purpose and to warn and prepare the Body
of Christ for what is coming. The Word of God is clear. God will do nothing
without revealing His secrets to His prophets!
Whenever a true prophetic Word is given, it demands a response... a call to
ACTION!
GOD'S PROPHETIC WARNING
Before we entered the decade of the 90s, God revealed to me specific
events, which would occur during that decade. In September 1989, while I was
on my way back from a ministry trip to Australia, He gave me a prophetic
word... a warning to the Body of Christ...concerning a coming worldwide
financial crisis.
Theresa and I were staying overnight in Sydney. We were tired from the
Perth crusade and arrived at our room about four or five o'clock in the afternoon.
We decided to rest before going to dinner and were in bed.
God called me,"Morris, get up!" I got up from my bed and went to a little
table in the room. God told me,"Write!" He showed me five major crises and
five major waves of the Holy Spirit that were coming in the decade of the
90s...the Decade of Destiny.
The last of the five major crises God showed me that was coming was... a
major financial crisis of worldwide consequences!
God used me to prophesy about this financial crisis. I wrote down what
God revealed to me and shared the prophecies in my book, The 5 Major Crises
and the 5 Major Waves of the Holy Spirit.
'We will experience a worldwide economic upheaval resulting in the
collapse of our monetary system. This economic crash will come suddenly,
sending shock waves throughout the world. It will be the opening for the
establishment of a new one-world monetary system under a new one-world
government.
When this worldwide economic disaster hits, it will be unlike anything we
have ever experienced The world will be thrown into a state of shock. Panic
and fear will grip the hearts of people everywhere. They will be confused, not
knowing whit to do or where to go.
During this time, the people of God will be clearly distinguished from the
world by God's supernatural provision in their lives. It will not be the absence
of problems and adversity among God's people that will be a witness to the
world, but in the midst of this financial crisis the world will see God's strong
arm of provisionfor His people."
Because of the overwhelming prosperity in America at the time I made this
prophecy, many people refused to believe.
What we have witnessed in the past ten months is just the beginning of the
fulfillment of this prophecy. At the time of this writing, the world's finances
continue to deteriorate. Over 5 trillion dollars have been lost!
Every nation today, in every part of the globe, is facing financial upheavals.
There is fear and uncertainty as people everywhere struggle to face rising
costs, unemployment, overdue bills and bankruptcy.
In America, personal debt is spiraling out of control as it increases more
rapidly than the economy or savings.
Consider the major financial crises we have witnessed worldwide in just
the past few years.
In America:
• 1987 - "Black Monday" crash - The largest stock market drop in Wall
Street history. The Dow Jones Industrial average plunged 508.32 points losing
22.6% of its total value. $ 1 trillion was lost in the market value of business
stocks in just three days. 15,000 jobs were lost in the financial industry.
• 1989 -The junk bond market collapsed, driving hundreds of savings and
loan companies out of business, and ultimately costing taxpayers $500 billion.
Real estate values plunged.
• 1992 -The U. S. government was forced to assume management of 104
banks with assets totaling $36.6 billion.
• 1993 - Business and individual bankruptcies reached record levels -
over one million were filed in a single year! 2000 - 2001:
• March 2001 -The Dow Jones index plunged below the 10,000 point
level and suffered it's worst first-quarter performance since 1960.
 WORLDWIDE FINANCIAL CRISIS HITS!
The shock waves of this recent stock market crash were not only felt
throughout America but around the world:
• General Motors, the world's largest car maker, suffered an 88% profit
drop.
• Ford Motor Company, the world's second largest car maker, reported a
41% drop in profits for the first three months of 2001.
• Intel, the world's biggest computer chip maker, reported a 64% drop in
profits for the first quarter of 2001.
• Texas Instruments, the world's biggest computer chip maker for mobile
phones, said it plans to cut 6% of its workforce.
• Hewlett Packard is expecting a fall in sales between 2% to 4% and will
cut 3,000 jobs.
• Honeywell's profits nose-dived to 91% and the firm plans to cut 6,500
jobs, about 5% of its workforce.
• Silicon Valley's largest company, Cisco Systems, announced plans to
lay off 8,500 people and reported that sales would be 30% lower than the
previous three months.
• Walt Disney is currently undergoing a hiring freeze and has warned it
will eliminate 4,000 full-time jobs, or about 3% of its workforce.
• Motorola, the U.S. electronics giant, experienced trading losses of $200
million for the first quarter of 2001 and announced cutbacks of up to 7,000 jobs
worldwide in the personal communications sector, including closing a mobile
phone factory in Scotland resulting in the loss of 3,000 jobs.
This is only the tip of the iceberg. Value companies, from retail to
pharmaceutical to telecommunications, are cutting hundreds of thousands of jobs
worldwide.
 EUROPE AND ASIA FALLS!
Japan faces a major economic crisis -
• In 1990, in Tokyo, the stock market collapse triggered a drop of over
50% in Japanese real estate values, producing a loss of $7 trillion.
• The Nikkei 225 index is now at a 16-year low. In March 2001, it closed
down 456.5 points, it's lowest since April 23, 1985.
• In March 2001, the Japanese yen fell to its lowest point against the
dollar since October 1998: 124.85 yen to 1.00 USD
France -
• The Paris bourse sank to a 17-month low.
Germany -
• The same day Frankfurt's market was down more than 2%.
• Germany's unemployment unexpectedly rose by 12,000 to 3.99 million!
LONDON STOCK MARKET CRASH!
London -
• March 12, 2001, the FTSE closed at it lowest level since February 1999.
• March 23, 2001 - £64 billion was wiped off the value of British
companies as the London Stock Exchange suffered its biggest one-day fall since
1992.
• Capital Radio, the United Kingdom's largest commercial radio station,
warned its profits would be over 10% lower than last year and no future
visibility of change.
• The industrial automation and controls company, Invensys, warned that
it will lay off 5,000 staff by the end of its financial year.
INDONESIA FACES ECONOMIC COLLAPSE
• In March 2001, the Indonesian Rupiah fell to more than 11,000 to the
U.S. dollar.
• Indonesia's long economic crisis has deepened. In April, finance
ministers met with the International Monetary Fund asking them to release a
$400 million loan which had been delayed since December.
AUSTRALIA DOLLAR AT ALL-TIME LOW
• The Australian dollar fell to an all-time low as a result of falling gross
domestic product, a cut in interest rates and economic weakness in the country's
main export markets. The economic crisis in Japan is expected to hurt the
Australian economy. Politicians and economists fear that Australia is heading for
a recession.
 TURKEY, FACING MAJOR ECONOMIC CRISIS,
ASKS FOR A / ' TWELVE BILLION DOLLAR LOAN
FROM IMF
• Turkey needs immediate cash in order to survive its financial crisis and
was seeking to secure $10-12 billion of extra aid from IMF by mid-April, 2001.
• The lira has fallen by about 30% against the U.S. dollar and inflation
shot up again.
ARGENTINA STRUGGLES UNDER 33 MONTHS
OF RECESSION
• Unemployment in Argentina is near 15% and the country is saddled
with a ballooning deficit.
• The country is battling a $120 billion total foreign debt - close to 50%
of its gross domestic product.
• Last December (2000), the International Monetary Fund agreed to a
$39.7 billion bail out package. But, the crisis continues.
BRAZIL AND MEXICO STOCKS DROP
• In April 2001, Brazilian shares collapsed due to fears about a political
scandal and concerns about Argentina's financial crisis.
• Brazil's markets, highly sensitive because of the economic turmoil in
Argentina, stood little chance of survival after a corruption scandal forced the
resignation of the head of the government bloc in the Senate.
• Brazil's Bovespa index lost 524 points.
• Also in April, Mexican stocks ended down 1.87% due to concerns about
deepening economic crises in the region. Again, all of this is just the tip of
the iceberg.
£64 BILLION WIPED OFF THE VALUE OF
BRITISH COMPANIES!
 40 PERCENT OF MEXICO'S 100 MILLION PEOPLE HAVE
AN INCOME OF LESS THAN $2 PER DAY.
 GOD WANTS YOU TO FACE THIS FINANCIAL CRISIS
FROM A POSITION OF FAITH AND POWER1.
Since I prophesied in 1989 about a coming worldwide financial crisis, we
have seen financial stability in the nations begin to crumble.
In the last ten months, the world has experienced economic shock waves as
this prophecy has unfolded.
Every nation on earth today faces great financial unrest and instability. The
financial crises we experience now will continue to escalate until there will be a
global economic disaster of such gigantic proportions that the entire world will
be thrown into a state of shock.
What you do today, and in the months ahead concerning your finances, will
determine how you will survive!
" The blessing of the Lord, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it
Proverbs 10:22
Your position of strength, as you face your current financial problems and
this current worldwide financial crisis, is not a position of fear and weakness but
one of faith and power!
There is no magical formula to follow that will keep you from facing
financial problems.
The key to walking in victory during this current financial crisis is in your
covenant relationship with God. In which you walk in obedience to Him and His
Word, live in continual fellowship with Him and continue to give to God
believing, expecting and trusting Him to keep his covenant with you.
I encourage you to rise up in faith to a new level of consecration and
dedication to God, of yourself...your time...your talent...your finances, and join
in a covenant with God as one of His end-time financiers. As you do, you will
break the hold Satan has on your finances and you will be able to draw upon
God's supernatural provision.
As the world struggles desperately to survive this financial disaster, those
Christians who live in this close covenant relationship with God will not be
afraid or shaken, God's hand of supernatural provision will be upon them.
The first thing you must do when financial crisis hits you and your family
is to break through the barrier of fear. In the next chapter, I will share with you
God's promise that you will be able to look at financial crisis or famine and
laugh!
 The domino effect

The world economic crisis in perspective.

 Asia
July 1997:
Financial crisis starts in Thailand when the
government allows its currency (baht) to float and not
pegging it to another currency. The crisis spreads to the
Philippines,
Malaysia, Hong Kong, Indonesia, South Korea and
Japan


Russia
Russia only accounts for 1% of the world economy,
but the collapse of the ruble and political crisis have
accelerated the economic crisis

Europe
Norway: Drop in oil prices weakens the Norwegian
crown, forcing Norway to raise the interest rate Germany,
U.K., France, Sweden, Denmark: Stock markets in
turmoil
Finland: Crisis may affect the country s plan of
joining the single currency next year

South America
Investors leave Brazil, Venezuela and Mexico due to
fear of difficulties on the emerging markets, which may
be affected by the Russian devaluation
 North America U.S. trade deficit will grow as the
crisis in Asia continues. Fear of a global crash is sparked
by recent stock market drops on Wall Street
THE WORLD ECONOMIC CRISIS STARTED IN ASIA AND
CREATED A DOMINO EFFECT WHICH CONTINUED TO
RUSSIA, EUROPE, SOUTH AND NORTH AMERICA. THIS IS
ONLY THE TIP OF THE ICEBERG!
Remember, most of all, we are living in the end times!
There is an end-time, worldwide, financial, economic shaking coming.
It is beyond the natural.
It is not the making of man.
Man will do all he can: drop interest rates, pay down government debt,
create more government control over currencies. However, nothing can stop or
influence this coming judgment, because it is not the result of what man does or
does not do!
Perplexity will abound!
Man will be confused!
Man will be confounded!
Man will try old systems and new economics but will fail!
This is God's end-time judgment upon the world!
Nothing, no intelligence and none of man's efforts, will be able to figure
out what to do.
Everything man does will continue to compound the financial problems.
It will be a sign for men to call out and repent of their financial greed,
abuse of the poor and lack of compassion for the needy.
Men will realize they are not so high and mighty and that the past
prosperity and years of plenty were only because of the grace of God.
"When the Lamb opened the third seal, I
heard the third living creature say, "Come!" I
looked, and there before me was a black horse!
Its rider was holding a pair of scales in his hand.
Then I heard what sounded like a voice among
the four living creatures, saying, "A quart of
wheat for a day's wages, and three quarts of
barley for a day's wages, and do not damage the
oil and the wine!"

CHAPTER 2
LOOK AT FINANCIAL FAMINE AND
LAUGH IN THE DEVIL'S FACE!
Since 1989, when God revealed to me that a major worldwide financial
crisis was coming, I have shared this prophetic word to prepare the Body of
Christ for this coming crisis.
If you are a child of God, walking in covenant relationship with Him, you
do not have to be afraid of anything! As the world reels under the current
worldwide financial crisis, God planned for you to receive His supernatural
provision and have your needs met.
The stock market can crash!
Real estate can go bust!
General Motors can close its plants!
Banks can close down!
Social Security can go bankrupt!
Funding for pension plans can dry up!
Regardless of what may happen, God will supernaturally intervene and
release His provision into your life. In the midst of this financial crisis, God's
hand of provision will be upon you.
It has always been God's plan to covenant with His chosen people. God
showed me that in this endtime hour before Christ returns that He will release an
endtime financial anointing.
Receive this prophecy into your spirit:
"It's time for the Body of Christ to experience a supernatural, spiritual
breakthrough in the realm of finances. God is going to have a people...an
endtime people. Just as He raised up the Jews for a divine purpose, He is raising
up these endtime people for a divine purpose and God will supernaturally
manifest Himself through them in this end time. One of the supernatural
manifestations will be how God provides for them.
God is raising up a specific breed of endtime people— people who have
heard the voice of the Holy Spirit and have responded by laying their lives down
before God as a living sacrifice. These people have joined themselves in
holiness, righteousness, and sanctification for the endtime purposes of God
Almighty.
 God will release an endtime financial anointing upon these people. They
will be uniquely joined together with God and the world will know, as it knew
through the Jew, that there is only one true God and His name is Jehovah! Jesus
is His Son and the Holy Spirit is His manifestation to reveal Himself and His
Son to us.
As God releases a financial anointing upon the Body of Christ, many will
experience the miracle of debt cancellation. Longstanding bills, which are
keeping individuals hopelessly caught in a vicious cycle of debt, will be
cancelled by a supernatural financial provision.
There are many people under such bondage of debt that there is no possible
way, in the natural, for them to ever get out of debt. As God reveals His plan to
prosper and bless His people and they begin to act according to His plan of
giving and receiving, He will supernaturally intervene and debts will be
cancelled."
"And when they were come to Capernaum, they that received tribute money
came to Peter, and said, Doth not your master pay tribute? He saith, Yes. And
when he was come into the house,
Jesus prevented him, saying, What thinkest thou, Simon? of whom do the
kings of the earth take custom or tribute? of their children, or of strangers?
Peter saith unto him, Of strangers.
Jesus saith unto him, Then are the children free. Notwithstanding, lest we
should offend them, go thou to the sea, and cast an hook, and take up the fish
that cometh up; and when thou hast opened his mouth, thou shalt find a piece of
money: that take, and give unto them for me and thee."
Matthew 17:24-27
Jesus was the Son of God. The Temple was His Father's house and He was
not obligated to pay this tax for the service of the Temple. But since he did not
want to offend the Jewish leaders by refusing to pay the tax, He paid it through
an incredible miracle of debt cancellation.
Are you ready to act in faith on this prophetic promise God is giving you?
Do you believe God can supernaturally provide for you so that all your
financial needs will be met and that He will MULTIPLY and INCREASE your
finances?
Are you a candidate for a miracle of debt cancellation?
Are you ready for God to break the bondage of debt and release His
endtime financial anointing into your life?
I received the following debt cancellation testimony from Robert and
Evelyn B., partners of our ministry from Roxbury Massachusetts:
In 1998, we participated and gave financially during Morris Cerullo's FIVE
HEALING STREAMS ministry letters to his partners. This is when God really
started moving supernaturally. We had seven different credit cards and were in
$20,000 credit card debt.
One after another, each of the seven different credit card companies sent us
letters of settlement and debt cancellation.
If our credit card debt was $2,000, they would say, "You can pay $500 and
we will cancel the rest."
If our credit card debt was $1,500, they would say, "You can pay $700 and
we will cancel the rest."
Altogether, the seven credit card companies cancelled three-fourths of our
$20,000 debt ($15,000).
Every time we receive Brother Cerullo's Financial Breakthrough
audiotapes, we play them over and over. These teachings build our faith.
Restoration has begun in our finances and business. God has given favor to
my husband with the businessmen in our community our business is multiplying.
Praise God!
FEAR WILL KEEP YOU LIVING IN A CYCLE
OF FINANCIAL DEFEAT!
The first step you must take toward breaking the bondage of debt and
reaping God's provision in your financial famine is to bind the spirit of fear from
your mind.
Fear will keep you from taking a step of faith. Fear that you will not have
enough money to meet your needs, you will not survive or that sickness will
come upon you, causing you to withdraw from giving to God. Fear of these
things and others will keep you from being faithful to God's Word.
God has made a covenant with you. He will never change His mind. He has
promised:
"My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my
lips."
Psalm 8934
Only you can break the covenant. God never will!
You may think, "I have every right to be fearful... I have no income... I face
bankruptcy...the bank is ready to foreclose on my house... I just do not know
what I am going to do!"
 Regardless of the circumstances you face, you must recognize fear as
Satan's weapon to keep you living in a cycle of financial failure and defeat. You
must resist this attack against your mind and put him on the run!
"Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will
flee from you."
James 4:7
As a child of God, fear has absolutely no place in your life! "For God hath
not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love and a sound mind." (II
Timothy 1:7) You serve the same God who supernaturally provided for His
people and prospered them above all other people on earth. Knowing that He is a
GIVING God and that it is His will to prosper you, instead of giving in to fear,
God intends for you to look at your financial famine and laugh in the enemy's
face!
God's Word is clear:
"In famine, He will redeem you from death...neither shall you be afraid of
destruction when it comes. At destruction and famine you shall laugh... "
Job 5:20-22
The reason you can laugh in the enemy's face is because you know God
will not only deliver you, but will fulfill His promises, and pour His abundance
into your life.
FINANCIAL JUDGMENT IS COMING!
The time is coming when the worldwide financial crisis will be so bad that
famine will cover the earth. In the book of Revelation, we are warned of a
coming worldwide, endtime financial judgment of God.
God gave the Apostle John a vision of the conditions which will exist
during this time. John saw a black horse, which represents famine, "And when he
had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I
beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in
his hand. And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of
wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny;and see thou hurt
not the oil and the wine." (Revelation 6:5-6)
What John saw were the judgments of God being released upon the earth
prior to Christ's second coming. The seven seals Christ breaks are symbols of
actual world events that God planned to occur in a definite chronological order
during the last days. The first four seals represent false christs, war, famine, and
a wave of death which will sweep across the face of the earth, killing one-fourth
of the entire population.
When Christ opens the third seal, it will signal the beginning of a
worldwide famine. God will send financial judgment upon the world, resulting
in a worldwide famine.
We have seen the widespread devastation, suffering and death because of
famines in isolated parts of the world:
During the nineties, natural disasters, political and economic turmoil
resulted in widespread famine in many countries. Due to severe drought and the
failure of crops in 1999, five million Ethiopians faced starvation. In Angola,
more than one million faced starvation in the midst of civil war.
In 1998, famine swept across Sudan. Two million died as a result of war
and famine. An estimated three million North Koreans have died because of
famine since 1995 and a reported 800,000 are severely malnourished.
This endtime famine will be unlike anything we have ever seen and it will
cover the entire world.
The rider that John saw on the black horse carried a balance in his hand.
This balance indicates a time of scarcity when the basic commodities of life will
be sold at exorbitant prices. The voice that John heard saying, "a measure of
wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny," indicates a time of
great scarcity when prices which are ten to twelve times what they should be. A
"penny" in the original Greek is a Roman denarius, which was the equivalent of
a day's wages.
The worldwide, economic crisis and famine will be so severe in the days
before Christ's return that it will take a day's wages just to buy a loaf of bread! In
many parts of the world, this is already a reality! Inflation continues to soar,
making it more difficult to buy enough food to stay alive in many countries.
THE WORLD WILL SEE GOD'S HAND OF
SUPERNATURAL PROVISION UPON HIS PEOPLE!
Although this worldwide financial crisis and famine will cover the earth,
God set a limitation and divine covering over His people. The voice that John
heard in the heavens gave a directive, "...see thou hurt not the oil and the wine."
(Revelation 6:6)
What is the "oil and wine" mentioned in the above verse?
Wine typifies the blood. Christ established the New Covenant with the
shedding of His own blood. He told His disciples, "...This cup is the new
testament in my blood, which is shed for you." (Luke 22:20) "And he took the
cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it; For this is
my blood of the new
testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins." (Matthew
26:27-28)
The wine in this verse represents the blood. The oil is a type of the Holy
Spirit. When John heard the voice in heaven saying, "...see thou hurt not the oil
and the wine" (Revelation 6:6), the command to the rider of the black horse was
to not dare touch one of His blood-bought, redeemed, Spirit-filled people when
this endtime judgment is poured out!
GOD WILL DRAW A LINE BETWEEN HIS
PEOPLE AND THE UNSAVED!
When God poured out His judgments upon Pharaoh and Egypt, He drew a
line between His people and the people of Egypt. None of His judgments came
upon the children of Israel. God told Pharaoh, "And I will put a division between
my people and thy people..." (Exodus 8:23)
• God sent the swarm of flies upon Egypt, Pharaoh and his people but not
upon the children of Israel in Goshen. (Exodus 8:21-22)
• God sent a plague upon all the cattle in Egypt and they died but none of
the cattle belonging to the children of Israel died! (Exodus 9:6)
• God rained hail upon the land of Egypt and all that was in their fields,
including man and beast. But, in the land of Goshen where the children of Israel
lived, there was no hail. (Exodus 9:26)
• God sent darkness throughout the land of Egypt for three days, but all
the children of Israel had light. (Exodus 10:23)
• God caused the death angel to pass through Egypt, killing all firstborn
in the land, but none of the firstborn of the children of Israel died because the
blood of the passover lamb was applied to the doorposts of their homes. God
told the children of Israel, 'And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the
houses where ye are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you... " (Exodus
12:13)
When God's judgments are poured out and this worldwide economic crisis
and famine covers the earth, God's people, who are covered by the blood of the
Lamb and who walk in strong covenant relationship with Him, will not be
fearful. God will draw a line between those who belong to Him and the people of
the world and the world will again see God's hand of supernatural provision
upon His people as a witness of His mighty power!
 During this worldwide financial crisis, it will not be the absence of
problems and adversity among God's people that will be a witness to the world.
It will be God's strong arm of provision, in the midst of this crisis, supernaturally
meeting the needs of His people that will be a witness of His supernatural power.
WHEN THE WORLD IS SHAKEN, GOD WILL
SUPPLY YOUR NEED ACCORDING TO HIS
UNLIMITED RESOURCES!
Regardless of the conditions you face, as the world's economy continues to
crumble around you, you do not need to be fearful! Your position is a position of
strength and power!
God promised you:
"The Lord knoweth the days of the upright: and their inheritance shall be
for ever. They shall not be ashamed in the evil time: and in the days of famine
they shall be satisfied." (Psalm 37:18-19)
God promised that, in the days of famine, you will be satisfied! The word
"satisfied" in this verse is translated from the Hebrew word "saba" which means
"to fill to satisfaction, to be full, to have plenty."
In this Scripture, we are assured that God knows the ultimate destiny of
those who walk uprightly before Him...their inheritance is everlasting. We know
that we have an eternal inheritance Waiting for us in heaven. However, He is
also concerned about our daily existence now, here on earth.
God is concerned about your financial needs and the problems you face. He
knows what you need before you ever ask! His promise to you is that in time of
adversity, you will not be put to shame. This means that whatever circumstances
you face, you will never be defeated as long as you keep your faith and trust in
Him.
You are not exempt or immune from adversity, trouble or pain but you are
promised deliverance out of all your troubles. "Many are the afflictions of the
righteous: but the Lord delivereth him out of them all" (Psalm 34:19)
God will deliver you from the snare of the fowler! "Surely he shall deliver
thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence." (Psalm
91:3)
He will deliver you from every evil work! "And the Lord shall deliver me
from every evil work, and will preserve me unto his heavenly kingdom: to whom
be glory for ever and ever. Amen." (LI Timothy 4:18)
During times of famine, you are promised God's provision...not just enough
to get by or to meet your needs but you will have plenty so that you will be fully
satisfied.
GOD WILL SATISFY YOU DURING FINANCIAL
FAMINE
Financial famine is when overdue bills have piled up until it seems
impossible for you to ever be able to pay them or get out of debt. It is when your
finances are low and, regardless of what you do, there is never enough income to
provide the basic necessities for you and your family or pay off your debts.
Financial famine is when you live under such a heavy bondage of debt that
spirits of fear, doubt and hopelessness attack your mind until you become
discouraged and depressed.
One of the biggest yokes of bondage in the Body of Christ today is the
bondage of DEBT! Debt strangles! It kills! It holds God's people back from
receiving what they need to fulfill His will in this endtime hour. During the time
of financial famine, God promises to deliver you. You do not have to stay in
financial bondage any longer! It is a curse and God has delivered us from under
the curse.
I have shared the prophetic word of financial deliverance God has given me
for the Body of Christ concerning a financial anointing He is releasing to break
the bondage of debt from His people. If you will line yourself up in your faith,
dare to believe it and dare to take it, you will experience FINANCIAL
DELIVERANCE!
 CYCLE OF FINANCIAL DEFEAT
Remember, it is the anointing that breaks every yoke.
"And it shall come to pass in that day, that his burden shall be taken away
from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke shall be
destroyed because of the anointing."
 Isaiah 10:27
BIND THE SPIRIT OF FEAR FROM YOUR
MIND!
One of the first things that attacks your mind when you face a financial
crisis or financial famine is the satanic spirit of fear.
When unexpected emergencies arise...car repairs...doctor and hospital
bills...and you face overdue bills that you are unable to pay because of lack of
finances, fear begins to torment your mind.
You face fear of insufficient funds to take care of basic necessities for
yourself and your family: food, clothing, housing and transportation.
You face fear of losing your income and having no way to provide for
yourself.
You face fear of losing your home, going bankrupt and having no place to
live.
To reap God's provision in your time of financial famine you must know
how to bind the satanic spirit of fear that keeps you from acting in faith upon the
Word of God.
Satan will bind you with fear until you no longer look to God to supply
your needs and you begin to withhold your tithes and offerings. He uses fear to
stop you from giving to God and thereby blocks the flow of God's blessings. In
chapter three, I will share more about the one thing you must not do during a
time of financial famine.
To survive during the present worldwide financial crisis, you must know
how to bind the spirits of fear and worry from your mind. The spirit of fear is a
tormenting spirit that will bind you and keep you from acting in faith on God's
promises.
You do not have to be bound or defeated by fear ever again. "For God hath
not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind" (II
Timothy 1:7). Fear has no place in your life! You must recognize the spirit of
fear the moment it attacks your mind. You must know how to reject it before it
has a chance to enter in and take root.
Take authority over the spirit of fear and command it to go in Jesus' name!
Remember, we have the power not Satan. His power was destroyed. "...For this
purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the
devil." (I John 3:8)
God has given you power and authority, through the Holy Spirit, over all
the power of the enemy. Jesus said, "Behold, I give unto you power to tread on
serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall
by any means hurt you." (Luke 10:19)
There is one living within you who is far greater than Satan and every
demon in hell! "...because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the
world." (I John 4:4)
You have the power! Use the authority God has given you to command the
spirit of fear to go and never return.
"Spirit of fear, in the Name of Jesus, I take authority over you. You are off
limits! God has given me a spirit of power, love and a sound mind. I bind you
and command you to stop tormenting my mind. In Jesus' Name, I command you
to take your hands off my mind and leave now!"
REFUSE TO LOOK AT YOUR CIRCUMSTANCES
AND LOOK TO GOD AS YOUR SOURCE!
In the Bible, there is a beautiful story of God's provision in the time of
famine. A widow broke through the spirit of fear, acted upon the word spoken by
the prophet and received God's supernatural provision.
It is important (not that I desire to lift man up - no, no, no)that we have
confidence that God has prophets today and that He does use them. We need to
know, to proclaim the future things of God and fulfill His Word, that the
anointing of God is relevant today. "...Believe in the Lord your God, so shall ye
be established; believe his prophets, so shall ye prosper." (II Chronicles 20:20)
At this time, there was a great famine throughout Israel and its surrounding
borders. God sent this famine upon the nation of Israel in judgment of their sin
and great apostasy. The heavens had been shut up according to Elijah's word. He
prophesied that there would be a famine for three and one-half years.
The land became barren and parched. The crops dried up and the livestock,
animals and people began to die of starvation.
In the midst of this great famine, we can see God's supernatural provision
in meeting the needs of Elijah as well as those of the widow of Zarephath. God
spoke to Elijah and gave him specific directions as to what he should do. God
told Elijah to go to the Cherith brook, near the Jordan River, which was to be
God's place of provision for him for about a year. God told Elijah, have
commanded the ravens to feed thee there." (I Kings 17:4)
Are you ready for this?
It was not a fluke of nature, or just a coincidence, that ravens brought Elijah
meat and bread every morning and afternoon. It was God's divine miracle
provision!
Elijah did not question God. He did not fear or doubt. He obeyed. He
followed the Lord's direction.
When you face financial crises, it is crucial for you to hear the word of the
Lord concerning your circumstances and that you act in obedience to what He
directs. Do not look to man or rely upon your own natural mind to determine
what you should do. Wait upon God to receive His direction in your
circumstances and then do whatever He directs you. Rely upon God for His
provision.
When the brook dried up, about a year later, Elijah did not become fearful
or doubt God's care and provision for him. He did not look at his circumstances
but to God as his source.
Again, the Lord spoke to Elijah, giving him specific direction. God told
him to go to Zarephath and live there. He said, "...I have commanded a widow
woman there to sustain thee." (IKings 17:9)
To break the bondage of debt, you need to be in a position spiritually where
you can hear the voice of the Lord clearly. Your financial deliverance is based
upon acting in obedience to God and His Word.
To show His supernatural provision in Elijah's life, God did not choose a
rich widow with a large storehouse filled with food and ample provision for his
needs. He chose a poor woman...who was at the point of starvation.
The widow was a Gentile living in a country where the people served Baal.
She did not know the God of Israel. She and her son were at the point of
starvation. She was at the total end of herself...at the point of her greatest need.
All that she had left was a handful of flour and a little oil in a jug. There was no
one to look to or depend on for help. No doubt she was weak from not having
enough food to eat. She had stretched her meager provisions as far as she could.
She was weary and depressed. She had given up all hope and was preparing to
die.
During a time of financial famine, a spirit of depression and hopelessness
will try to get a stronghold in your life. But you must resist and bind these spirits
in the Name of Jesus. Set your spiritual focus upon what God has promised you,
not your need.
Put yourself in the place of this woman. Think about how she must have
felt facing desperate circumstances. It was at a point of deep poverty and
desperation she met the prophet, Elijah. She had gone to the gate of the city to
gather sticks to build a fire so she could prepare one final meal for herself and
her son.
Elijah called out to her and asked, "...Would you bring me a little water in a
jar so I may have a drink?" As she was going to get it, he called, "And bring me,
please, a piece of bread." (I Kings 17:10-11, NIV) The woman told Elijah that all
she had left was a handful of flour and a little oil. She was going to use it to cook
her last meal and then she and her son would prepare to die.
Her natural resources were totally exhausted!
I'm sure a spirit of fear had her bound. She had her eyes on her own limited
resources...on the last handful of flour and the small amount of oil she had.
To be sure, she had never heard of the God of Elijah!
In your life, your "handful of flour and oil" may represent your weekly
paycheck or your own limited resources. As long as you keep your eyes on them,
you will be fearful and will limit God and what He can do to multiply that little
"handful of flour and oil" to provide for your needs. Your "handful of flour and
oil" is all that God needs to multiply into a miracle for you.
Power does not travel in words but in relationships. Oh, how God longs to
reveal Himself to you as a covenant-making and covenant-keeping God. God has
promised:
"And I will make an everlasting covenant with them, that I will not turn
away from them, to do them good... "
Jeremiah 32:40
If you keep your eyes on your financial problems, you will become fearful
like this woman. The more you look at your circumstances, the more impossible
they will seem until you no longer expect God to meet your needs.
Satanic fear will bind you from receiving God's promises into your spirit
and will stop you from receiving your financial breakthrough.
The woman was so bound by fear that she was afraid to give to this prophet
of God because she knew, in the natural, she would not have anything left for
herself or her son. What she did not know was that God had placed a word in the
mouth of this prophet and sent him to her to break the bondage of poverty and
famine from her life.
Remember God's promise to you:
"...Believe in the Lord your God, so shall ye be established; believe his
prophets, so shall ye prosper!'
II Chronicles 20:20
ACT IN FAITH ON GOD'S PROMISES TO YOU!
 Elijah said,"FEAR NOT!" He directed her to go and use the small
provision she had to make a small cake of bread and bring it to him first and then
go home and make something for herself and her son.
Then Elijah gave her God's promise: "For this is what the Lord, the God of
Israel, says: 'The jar of flour will not be used up and the jug of oil will not
run dry until the day the Lord gives rain on the land." (I Kings 17:14, NIV)
The widow recognized Elijah as a prophet of the God of Israel and knew
that he was speaking as directed by God on God's behalf. First, she acted on the
Word of the God of Elijah. Without this, she could not have believed the word
he spoke. She received the Word of the Lord on the prophet's lips, this was the
power that enabled her to break through her fear and ACT on the promise God
gave her. The power to overcome fear is the power released to us when we
recognize, know and come into covenant with Jehovah, the only true and living
God of heaven and earth.
She put God first, above her own needs, and gave from her own deep need.
She could only do this because she recognized the God of Elijah as the true God.
When she returned home, she built a fire and baked Elijah a cake of bread. After
she brought it to him, she returned home and prepared some for herself and her
son.
Just as God promised through Elijah, the jar of flour and the jug of oil did
not run dry! Each day, as the widow reached down into the jar for the flour and
poured the oil to prepare food for Elijah, herself and her son, it MULTIPLIED.
Just as the prophet said, the jar of flour and jug of oil did not run dry during the
time of famine. The woman, her son, and Elijah were fed supernaturally for
approximately two and one-half years!
What this widow experienced was the supernatural provision of God on her
behalf...TOTAL PROVISION...CONTINUAL SUPPLY! Every day, she learned
to depend upon the God of Elijah to provide for her needs. There was continual
daily provision in this woman's life.
God did not prosper her by supplying a large sum of money or by filling
her cupboards with enough food to last during the famine, although He could
have done these things. As she looked to God as her source of supernatural
supply and went to the jar of flour and cruse of oil believing and expecting to
receive His provision, her needs were met.
God has an unlimited supply...do not limit what he will do for you.
Expect His unusual, out of the ordinary, supernatural provision!
If God commanded the ravens to feed His servant Elijah bread and meat
twice daily for a year and used a poverty-stricken woman to provide for him for
two and one-half years, He can do the same for you today!
Surely He will supernaturally meet the needs in our lives.
God's will for you, even during the time of your financial famine...in the
midst of adversity or your great financial need, is that you have continual daily
provision provided by His own hand.
The Word of the Lord to you today is "FEAR NOT!"
In the Name of Jesus, the God of Elijah, break the stronghold of fear from
your life right now.
In the circumstances you face, break through the fear binding you and act
in faith on God's promises to you. Wait upon God to hear what He directs you
to do, then act in faith, believing He will fulfill His Word to you.
As an act of your faith, find out what God is saying to you to release to
Him. Look to Him as your Source and GIVE out of your need, as this widow
did, then GET READY!
The same supernatural God who multiplied the flour and cruse of oil for the
widow will supply what you need and MULTIPLY what you sow. You will have
total provision...continual supply as you draw from Him.
"Now he that ministereth seed to the sower both minister bread for your
food, and multiply your seed sown, and increase the fruits of your
righteousness... "
II Corinthians 9:10
God is releasing an endtime financial anointing upon the Body of Christ to
strengthen and prepare you to face the current financial crisis. In the midst of
this financial crisis you will know how to stand in faith and draw upon his
supernatural provision.
As you walk in a covenant relationship with God, He will manifest His
power on your behalf. When the world is thrown into turmoil and people
everywhere are in despair with no place to turn, God will supernaturally
intervene on your behalf and supply your need. He will satisfy you, not
according to the world's resources but according to His unlimited resources.
God's Word is clear, "In famine He will redeem you from death, and in war
from the power of the sword. You shall be hidden from the scourge of the tongue,
neither shall you be afraid of destruction when it comes. At destruction and
famine you shall laugh..." (Job 5:20-22, AMP)
In the midst of this financial crisis, instead of being fearful, you will have
God's peace covering your mind because you will know He is with you to
deliver you.
When the worldwide financial crisis hits, there is one thing you must guard
against doing that will short circuit God's provision and bring you into a vicious
cycle of defeat. In the following chapter, you will learn what this is and how to
break the financial bondage off your life.

CHAPTER 3
THE ONE THING NOT TO DO DURING
A FINANCIAL CRISIS
I want to share with you a major truth that will enable you to experience a
financial breakthrough and walk in the prosperity that God has provided for you.
Throughout my fifty years of ministry and walking closely with the Lord, I
have learned to apply this truth in my personal life as well as my ministry
outreaches to see God's provision released to meet my needs.
It is a key to the financial breakthrough you need in your current financial
difficulties and it is found in the following scripture:
"There are those who [generously] scatter abroad, and yet increase more;
there are those who withhold more than is fitting or what is justly due, but it
tends only to want. The liberal person shall be enriched, and he who waters
shall himself be watered."
Proverbs 11:24-25, AMP
Release is the key to INCREASE!
WITHHOLDING leads to POVERTY!
In times of adversity or financial difficulty, the first reaction of the natural
mind is to cut back or conserve. In the lives of the vast majority of Christians,
one of the first areas in which they cut back is their giving to God. When
unexpected emergencies arise, there is a decrease in their income or their savings
begin to disappear, they start withholding their tithes and offerings.
The worst thing you can do when you are having financial difficulties is to
stop giving...to withhold your tithes and offerings...to stop fulfilling your pledges
and commitments you have made to God.
 CYCLE OF FINANCIAL DEFEAT
The moment you begin to worry about your finances, you open yourself up
for financial defeat! Satan will try to fill your mind with fear, worry and doubt.
If you keep your eyes on your circumstances, you will stop giving to God which
will block the flow of God's provision in your life. To break out of this Cycle of
Financial Defeat, cast out all fear, worry and doubt, get your eyes off your
circumstances, continue to give to God, expecting, believing and trusting God to
fulfill His promises to you.
The natural mind says, "Stop giving until your finances improve. Stop
giving and you will have more to meet your financial obligations."
God's Word teaches you to give freely, willingly and liberally to God, even
in times of adversity and He will multiply it back into your life to meet your
needs.
Jesus said, "Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed
down, and shaken together, and running over.."(Luke 6:38)
IN TIMES OF ADVERSITY, GIVE LIBERALLY
TO GOD!
In God's cycle of supernatural provision, He takes what you give and
MULTIPLIES it so that you have an increase. As you give, not only are your
needs met but you have more to give and the cycle continues until you have
continual provision.
Paul said, "And God is able to make all grace (every favor and earthly
blessing) come to you in abundance, so that you may always and under all
circumstances and whatever the need, be self-sufficient - possessing enough to
require no aid or support and furnished in abundance for every good work and
charitable donation...And [God] Who provides seed for the sower and bread for
eating will also provide and multiply your [resourcesfor] sowing..." (II
Corinthians 9:8, 10, AMP)
When you face financial crisis, Satan's strategy is to cause you to withhold
from God, short-circuit God's cycle of supernatural provision and bring you into
a vicious cycle of financial defeat.
Don't let him do it!
Withholding leads to poverty. Those who withhold...who stop giving and
selfishly cling to what they have, will go lacking. Look at these verses in the
Amplified Version, "There are those who [generously] scatter abroad, and yet
increase more; there are those who withhold more than is fitting or what is justly
due, but it tends only to want. The liberal person shall be enriched, and he who
waters shall himself be watered." (Proverbs 11:24-25, AMP)
Those who give liberally will receive an increase and will prosper. Paul
said that those who give liberally shall reap abundance but those who give
sparingly will reap a small harvest. (II Corinthians 9:6)
 Do not fall into Satan's trap by withholding from God!
To break the bondage of poverty and debt from your life, you must
determine in your heart that you will not withhold from giving to God but will
continue to sow seed...to give liberally and faithfully your tithes and special
offerings as He directs you.
Even during times of great financial difficulty and in times of want,
continue to give the most liberal, generous gift possible to God, knowing that He
will multiply what you give to meet your need.
SOW SEEDS ACCORDING TO GOD’S
PROMISES
One of the major keys you must remember during this current worldwide
financial crisis is to sow seeds according to God's promises, not according to
your circumstances or natural ability.
God's will for you is that even during a time of financial famine...in the
midst of adversity or your greatest financial need...you will have continual daily
provision by his hand!
One of the major hindrances to financial breakthrough many Christians
face during financial famine is that they limit their giving according to their
current financial situation. If they are heavily in debt and have a limited income,
they either withhold their tithes and offerings or give a very limited amount.
They allow their financial crises and circumstances to determine the amount of
seed they sow.
There is a man in the Old Testament who dared to believe God in the midst
of great hunger, devastation and death. He refused to be bound by his natural
limitations or the adverse circumstances he faced. Instead, he shut his eyes to
unbelief and obeyed God.
That man's name is Isaac.
"Then Isaac sowed in that land, and received in the same year an
hundredfold: and the Lord blessed him. And the man waxed great, and went
forward, and grew until he became very great:
For he had possession of flocks, and possession of herds, and great store of
servants: and the Philistines envied him."
Genesis 26:12-14
Isaac sowed seed during a time of famine and reaped a hundredfold!
The land was dried up...
The heavens were closed...
 No rain...
Yet, Isaac sowed seed expecting a harvest.
Why did he sow during famine?
Isaac did not sow according to the natural conditions he faced, he sowed
according to the promise God gave him.
He sowed because he knew God was faithful to fulfill His word.
Because of the famine, Isaac had gone to the city of Gerar, in the land of
the Philistines. It was there that he had a divine encounter with God.
God appeared to Isaac and told him not to go to Egypt but to stay in the
land. God promised Isaac: “...I will be with thee, and will bless thee; for unto
thee, and unto thy seed, I will give all these countries..." (Genesis 26:3)
Isaac obeyed God. Instead of going to Egypt, he stayed in the land God
promised to give him and his seed. He did not look at the dry, parched ground.
He trusted God to fulfill His promise and he reaped a hundredfold harvest that
same year!
DO NOT LOOK AT THE DRY PARCHED
GROUND
In the financial crises you face, are you looking at the dry, parched ground
of your circumstances? Or, is your heart and mind fixed upon God's promises to
you?
Are you withholding from God because of your own personal lack or need?
Or, are you sowing seed, through your giving, and trusting God to fulfill His
promises?
God commanded His blessing upon Isaac until he was the richest man in
the country. King Abimelech asked him to leave the country because he had
acquired so much wealth and possessions. King Abimelech said, "...Go from us;
for thou art much mightier than we." (Genesis 26:16)
God blessed and prospered Isaac so much during the famine that the
Philistines were jealous! He had so much wealth the king asked him to leave the
country.
As I shared with you in chapter two, God is going to release an end-time
financial anointing upon His people. During this current worldwide financial
crisis, His hand of provision will be upon His people - those who are living and
walking with Him in a close covenant relationship.
It is time for your financial breakthrough when God will command His
blessings upon you, your family and all that you touch!
 God's promise to you is that, during times of adversity and financial
famine, you will have His supernatural provision, and that you will be
satisfied...filled full!
To reap an abundance of His promised blessings, you must not sow seed
according to the natural conditions you face...your financial needs...your
mountain of debt...your insufficient income. Do not look at the dry, parched
ground! If you wait until these outward conditions and circumstances improve to
sow seed, you will never sow and reap God's supernatural provision.
During your time of financial famine, you must sow seed according to
God's promises. Regardless of the financial problems you face, act in faith upon
God's promise that He will deliver you from your trouble, and that even during
your financial famine, you will reap His supernatural provision and be satisfied.
Even during your time of greatest financial need, sow seed for your harvest
by giving to God the best seed you can sow. Then, expect Him to multiply and
increase what you have sown to meet your need.
Believe God for a hundredfold return, even during your time of financial
famine!
WITHHOLDING FROM GOD WILL CAUSE YOU
TO LIVE UNDER A CLOSED HEAVEN!
The worst thing you can do, when you face financial famine, is to forget
God and stop giving your tithes and offerings. That is what Satan wants.
Withholding from God will bring you into a cycle of financial defeat in which
you live under a closed heaven.
One of Satan's greatest weapons against you, to bring you into a cycle of
debt and poverty, is to cause you to forget God and His promises of supernatural
provision.
When we go to the root cause to determine why many Christians no longer
give their tithes and offerings to God, the reason is clear. It is because they have
forgotten God and turned their hearts away from Him to follow after their own
desires and lusts of the flesh.
God promised the children of Israel that as long as they would love, serve
and obey Him, with all their heart, soul, mind and strength, they would live
under an open heaven where He would pour out His blessings upon them and
prosper them. He would send rain upon their crops and they would enjoy His
total provision.
“And it shall come to pass, if ye shall hearken diligently unto my
commandments which I command you this day, to love the Lord your God, and
to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul, That I will give you the
rain upon your land in his due season, the first rain and the latter rain, that thou
mayest gather in thy corn, and thy wine, and thine oil. And I will send grass in
thy fields for thy cattle, that thou mayest eat and he full."
Deuteronomy 11:13-15
God also issued a warning. He said, "Take heed to yourselves, that your
heart be not deceived, and ye turn aside, and serve other gods, and worship
them; And then the Lord's wrath be kindled against you, and he shut up the
heaven, that there be no rain, and that the land yield not her fruit; and lest ye
perish quickly from off the good land which the Lord giveth you." (Deuteronomy
11:16-17)
When the children of Israel failed to heed this warning, they forgot God.
They forgot His promises and their hearts were turned away from Him. They
stopped giving their tithes and offerings and began worshipping idol gods of
wood and stone. As a result, they lived under a closed heaven. God shut up the
heavens. Instead of reaping the abundance and prosperity God promised, they
lived in famine and poverty.
DO NOT FORGET GOD'S PROMISES!
Satan's objective is to cause you to forget God...to doubt His love and
provision for you. When you face financial difficulties, the enemy wants you to
forget God's promises and His faithfulness to you. He wants you to forget the
promises and prophecies so you will be unable to get your needs met.
There are times God will allow you to go through deep waters, through
tremendous financial difficulties, to prove you and see what is really in your
heart. God says, "I want to know what's in your heart. I want to know how deep
our relationship is...if you are sincere. I want to know if you are honest."
God told the children of Israel not to forget how He delivered them out of
Egyptian bondage and led them through the wilderness. He said, "And thou shalt
remember all the way which the Lord thy God led thee these forty years in the
wilderness, to humble thee, and to prove thee, to know what was in thine heart...
" (Deuteronomy 8:2)
God said,"I humbled you. I allowed you to suffer hunger." But then He
said, "When I did, I fed you with manna. I did not leave you hungry. I fed you
supernaturally with manna. Do not forget! Every day I fed you supernaturally by
the work of My hand. Do not forget it."
 REMEMBER GOD'S FAITHFULNESS TO YOU!
When you face financial problems, God does not want you to look to the
right or the left. He does not want you to look to the arm of the flesh. He wants
you to remember His faithfulness to you. He wants you to remember all the
times he provided for you and met your needs.
When problems arise, He wants you to stand on the Word, to act on His
promises and not be moved by your circumstances.
To walk in the financial victory God planned for you, the Word must be so
much a part of your life that regardless of how difficult or impossible your
circumstances are, you will cling to the Word and keep believing and trusting
God to fulfill His promises and supernaturally meet your needs.
God warned the children of Israel to TAKE HEED...NOT TO FORGET,
and then He told them to get the Word into their hearts until all that came out of
their mouths was the Word!
Look at Deuteronomy 11:18-19 in the Amplified Version, ""Therefore you
shall lay up these My words in your [mind and] heart and in your [entire] being,
and bind them for a sign upon your hand, and as forehead bands between your
eyes. And you shall teach them to your children, speaking of them when you sit
in your house, and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when
you rise up."
Do you want to break the financial bondage from your life once and for all
and live in the prosperity God planned for you?
Do not forget God! Do not forget his supernatural provision! Do not forget
His Word! Get the Word into your heart and refuse to let go of His promises!
You may face the greatest financial difficulties and problems you have ever
faced. Do not give up. Do not forget God by withholding your tithes and
offerings. When you stop giving to God, you have forgotten that it is He who has
blessed you and that it is not through your own efforts that you have prospered.
Keep your mind fixed upon God and His Word.
Do not ever let go of the prophecies!
God has given you this prophetic promise:
A financial crisis is coming that will shake this whole world. In the midst
of the end time, when the judgment of God is released on the right and left and
the financial world collapses, God will bless you and set you apart. You will be
marked by His Name and you shall prosper in the midst of the adversity of the
world.
Receive this prophecy that God has given you. Hold on to it!
 HOLD ON TO THE WORD!
Instead of fixing your eyes on the immensity of your financial problems,
your lack, man's limited resources and talking about your circumstances,
REMEMBER GOD and His Word. Do not speak about lack, talk about God's
provision! Keep speaking and claiming His Word in every circumstance you
face!
Remember, God's blessing is His supernatural power that He imparts to His
people through which He pours out His abundance into our lives. To have the
blessing of the Lord upon your life means to be blessed in every way.
God has given you a powerful key that will enable you to face every
financial problem, every circumstance and every crisis with a total absence of
fear and worry. In chapter four, I will share this with you.

CHAPTER 4
THE KEY TO FACING YOUR
FINANCIAL CRISES AND NEVER BEING
MOVED!
A good example of God's provision in times of famine is the story of
Joseph and how God used him to help bring deliverance to God's people. During
the seven years of worldwide famine, God's hand of supernatural provision was
upon His chosen people. God used Joseph to preserve the lives of his father,
Jacob, and his brothers.
God revealed to Joseph, through a prophetic dream, that there was coming
seven years of plenty followed by seven years of famine: "Behold, there come
seven years of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt: And there shall
arise after them seven years of famine; and all the plenty shall be forgotten in
the land of Egypt; and the famine shall consume the land."(Genesis 41:29-30)
God strategically placed Joseph over Pharaoh's house in Egypt and revealed to
him what he should do to prepare for the coming famine.
During this worldwide famine, all the surrounding countries came to
Joseph to buy corn. "And all countries came into Egypt to Joseph for to buy
corn; because that the famine was so sore in all lands." (Genesis 41:57)
This famine was so great and food was so scarce that all the people in the
land of Canaan and Egypt fainted. "And there was no bread in all the land; for
the famine was very sore, so that the land of Egypt and all the land of Canaan
fainted by reason of the famine." (Genesis 47'.13)
When their money failed, the Egyptians came to Joseph and sold him their
cattle and land for food. But, Joseph and Jacob and the people of God, prospered
even during this great famine. Pharaoh gave Jacob and Joseph's brothers the best
of the land. "And Joseph placed his father and his brethren, and gave them a
possession in the land of Egypt, in the best of the land, in the land of Rameses, as
Pharaoh had commanded." (Genesis 47:11)
In a time of worldwide famine, when all their money was exhausted, God
preserved His people. Joseph told his brothers, "And God sent me before you to
preserve you a posterity in the earth, and to save your lives by a great
deliverance." (Genesis 45:7) Not only did He preserve them, but they prospered!
"And Israel dwelt in the land of Egypt, in the country of Goshen; and they had
possessions therein, and grew, and multiplied exceedingly." (Genesis 47:27)
This is an example of God's mighty deliverance and how His hand of
provision will be upon you during this current worldwide financial crisis. In your
financial circumstances during this time, God will not only preserve you, He will
prosper and bless you!
But, you must step out in faith and act on His promises. Joseph would not
have prospered during the famine and would not have been used to save Israel if
he had not acted on what God showed him.
God revealed to Pharaoh in a dream about a seven-year worldwide famine
that was coming. He not only revealed the interpretation of Pharaoh's dream to
Joseph but He also showed Joseph what to do.
During the seven years of plenty that would supersede the seven years of
famine, they were directed to take a fifth of the harvest and store up the grain in
the cities to be used during the seven years of famine. (Genesis 41:34-35)
God gave Joseph His plan that would enable the people to survive the
coming worldwide famine. As he acted according to God's direction, Joseph not
only survived, he prospered and enjoyed God's supernatural provision during the
famine.
I must warn you. There are many Christians who are not spiritually
prepared to face this current worldwide financial crisis. They have not developed
a covenant relationship with God and do not follow the plan God established in
his Word concerning giving and receiving. They do not walk in obedience to His
Word and have not learned to trust and rely on Him to meet their daily needs.
This is the time for God to give His people a financial breakthrough!
God has shown me that an end-time financial anointing is coming upon His
people. Remember, it is the anointing that breaks every yoke. (Isaiah 10:27)
You may be wondering, "Brother Cerullo, what must I do to walk in God's
provision during this current worldwide financial crisis?"
LOOK TO GOD AS YOUR TOTAL SOURCE OF
SUPPLY!
God has given you a powerful key that will enable you to face every
financial problem, every circumstance, every financial crisis, and your time of
financial famine with the total absence of fear and worry!
That key is found in Jeremiah,
 "This is what the Lord says: " Cursed is the one who trusts in man, who
depends on flesh for his strength and whose heart turns away from the Lord. He
will be like a bush in the wastelands; he will not see prosperity when it comes.
He will dwell in the parched places of the desert, in a salt land where no one
lives."
Jeremiah 17:5-6, NIV
God gives us a stark comparison between those who trust in man and lean
to their own human strength versus those who trust and rely upon Him.
"But blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in him.
He will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream.
It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. It has no worries
in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit."
Jeremiah 17:7-8, NIV
In verses 5-6, God compares the man who trusts in man and leans upon the
arm of the flesh to a bush or shrub in the desert. The bush is a product of barren
ground. In this barren environment, the bush eventually dries up. It is useless and
unproductive.
Those who trust in their own efforts instead of trusting and relying upon
God are like this barren bush in the desert. When good comes, they will not see
it. They live in a barren place and have no lasting foundation. When others have
a harvest, they have none.
The individual who trusts in the arm of the flesh is cursed but the one who
trusts in God is blessed.
The individual who trusts in his own limited strength will live in barrenness
and will not even see prosperity when it comes.
But the one who trusts in God will be strong and immovable! "They that
trust in the Lord shall be as mount Zion, which cannot be removed, but abideth
for ever!' (Psalm 125:1) He will not fear during this time of financial need, or
this time of famine, but will continually be fruitful and prosperous.
This is not something man spoke, but something God said. "This is what
the Lord says..." (Jeremiah 17:5, NIV)
God's blessing is upon those who place their confidence, trust and faith in
Him, believing Him to meet all their needs. In verses 7-8, those who trust in the
Lord are compared to a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots.
Roots are one of the most important parts of a tree or plant. They spread
underground, anchoring the plant and absorbing water and nutrients from the
soil. New growth takes place at the ends of the smallest roots. Tiny root hairs
absorb water and nutrients from the soil, channeling them to the stem and leaves.
Roots provide stability and nourishment. Most of the references to "root" in the
Bible are symbolic, based on this important relationship of the root to the tree or
plant.
To become rooted means to become firmly fixed and established -
immovable.
A person who completely places his trust and hope in God is like a choice
tree that has been planted in the best soil - by the river of God's provision. He
becomes firmly rooted. His roots grow deep and spread out. Through his roots
he draws an abundance of all that He needs to sustain him.
Notice God's blessings upon those who become rooted in Him:
1. He does not fear when drought or famine comes because he is rooted by
the river of God! Like the tree planted by the water that is so well moistened
from its roots and is sufficiently guarded against drought, there is continual
security.
2. He will flourish, even in times of scarcity. Like the tree described in
these verses, "its leaves are always green," those who trust in God's promises
and faithfulness will never wither or become defeated, even in the most severe
trials and circumstances they face.
3. He is not worried or anxious when hard times come. Like the tree, "It
has no worries in a year of drought, he is at peace and satisfied even during the
drought. There is a continual flow of God's sustaining power and provision
flowing into him.
4. He continually bears fruit. Those who keep their trust in God, whose
roots are planted near the river of God never cease to bear fruit. The life and
provision of God continually flows into them.
If you continually trust in yourself...in your paycheck...in your bank
account...in your investments, stocks, bonds...instead of relying and trusting God
to meet your needs, you will never be able to live in the prosperity God planned
for the end-time Church. During this current, worldwide, financial crisis, you
will be unable to stand. As long as you trust in yourself, or in man, you will be
unable to claim and take hold of God's promises of supernatural provision.
When you face financial problems...when you do not know where you will
get the money to pay your bills, put food on the table and provide the basic
necessities for your family...do you trust man, look to the arm of the flesh or
trust in your own limited abilities to obtain the necessary finances to meet these
needs?
 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat
for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the
oil and the wine"
Revelation 6:6
How do you react when you face financial setbacks...the loss of income or
unexpected expenses...and you do not have enough money to meet your financial
obligations?
Do you become worried, or fearful, and rely upon natural resources... a
loan from the bank...or look to family and friends for help in securing the
finances you need?
Who do you trust as your Source of Supply?
Who do you go to for your Source of Supply?
TRUST AND DEPENDENCE UPON GOD IS THE
KEY TO YOUR PROSPERITY!
God wants you to trust and rely upon Him for your daily provision. Just as
He supernaturally provided daily manna for the children of Israel during their
forty years in the wilderness, God will provide all your daily needs as you keep
your trust in Him. Man does not live by bread alone!
Moses told the children of Israel, "He humbled you, causing you to hunger
and then feeding you with manna, which neither you nor your fathers had
known, to teach you that man does not live on bread alone but on every word
that comes from the mouth of the Lord. " (Deuteronomy 8:3, NIV)
When you face desperate financial needs, your trust must be in God's Word
and the prophetic promises He has given you, not in man's limited natural
resources.
Instead of trusting in man's limited natural resources, God wants you to act
upon the Word...act upon His promises...to trust, believe and totally rely upon
Him to meet all your needs.
Your trust and dependence upon God is the key to prosperity even during
times of great financial difficulty. The Word reveals that those who learn to
trust...to rely totally upon God will not be fearful or shaken when they face
desperate needs or crises. "For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters, that
spreads out its roots by the river; and shall not see and fear when heat comes...
" (Jeremiah 17:8)
When you fully learn to trust God and live your life, "...not...by bread
alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God." (Matthew
4:4), you will never be moved! Regardless of the financial problems or crises
you face, you will not be affected by them. You will be like a tree that flourishes
even during time of drought, "...but his leaf shall be green; he shall not be
anxious and careful in the year of drought..." (Jeremiah 17:8, TAB)
I must warn you. In the coming worldwide, financial crisis, only those who
have entered into a strong covenant relationship with God, in which they have
learned to trust and totally rely upon Him for His daily provision, will be able to
stand strong and immovable.
Only those who have entered by covenant into His House for protection
and provision will be strong and immovable.
Even when the world is thrown into a time of crisis greater than we have
ever experienced, those who wholeheartedly trust God will not be worried or
fearful but their needs will be met.
They will have more than enough!
They will be like a tree that flourishes even during end-time droughts and
never ceases to bear fruit!
When the whole world is reeling under the impact of the collapse of the
monetary system, God's hand of provision will be upon His people!
Regardless of the financial problems and crises you face, you do not ever
have to be fearful or anxious as long as you have built a solid foundation
whereby your faith and trust are fixed upon God and His faithfulness to fulfill
His promises. You will never suffer want but will be continually satisfied!
FOCUS YOUR EYES UPON GOD AS YOUR
SOURCE OF TOTAL SUPPLY!
God does not want you to get your eyes focused upon your own limited
resources. He does not want you to have your faith and trust in your weekly
paycheck, savings accounts, stocks, bonds or business investments.
If you are trusting in your own limited resources, repent and ask God to
forgive you.
Then, change your focus. In all the financial problems you face, look to
God, release your faith and trust Him to supernaturally intervene and meet your
needs. Rely on His covenant with you. God will never change His mind!
"When people take an oath, they call on someone greater than themselves
to hold them to it. And without any question that oath is binding. God also bound
himself with an oath, so that those who received the promise could be perfectly
sure that he would never change his mind. So God has given us both his promise
and his oath..."
Hebrews 6:16-18, NLT
God wants you to learn total dependence upon Him...to recognize Him as
your source of supply now, so that when you face financial crises, you will not
be shaken, but will take hold of His supernatural provision by faith.
Your strength is remembering that God is your Source, and it is He who
gives you power to get wealth. He is joined to you with a covenant that He will
never break!
"But thou shalt remember the Lord thy God: for it is he that giveth thee
power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy
fathers, as it is this day"
Deuteronomy 8:18
Do not depend on your natural resources...REMEMBER GOD GIVES
YOU THE POWER TO GET WEALTH!
Do not look to man...REMEMBER GOD IS YOUR SOURCE AND HE
GIVES YOU POWER TO GET WEALTH!
Do not become fearful concerning your financial
circumstances...REMEMBER GOD IS YOUR SOURCE AND HE IS
GREATER THAN ANY PROBLEM OR CRISIS YOU WILL EVER FACE!
Today there are many people searching for answers - a quick fix - a
formula to help them experience a financial breakthrough. To survive during this
current worldwide, financial crisis, you must no longer live according to the
limitations of your natural mind. In chapter five, I will share more about the
covenant relationship God wants you to have with Him where there is absolutely
no fear of want!

CHAPTER 5
DON'T LOOK FOR A FORMULA
WALK IN A COVENANT RELATIONSHIP
God's people, in this end-time hour, must come into an experience in which
they know "...Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that
proceedeth out of the mouth of God." (Matthew 4:4)
To survive during this worldwide financial crisis, you must no longer live
according to the limitations of your natural mind but your life must be directed
by the very words which proceed from the mouth of God. You must develop
such spiritual sensitivity that you listen for God's voice and are ready to obey.
The key to your financial breakthrough and God's promised blessing in
your life is your faithfulness as you walk in a covenant relationship with Him,
where you live in obedience and line up your life with His Word.
There are many Christians who think they can live a half-hearted Christian
life, follow after the carnal lusts of their flesh and still claim God's promises of
blessing.
The truth is you will be unable to take hold of God's promises in faith
unless you live in strong covenant relationship with Christ. Jesus said, "If ye
abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be
done unto you." (John 15:7) Only when you abide in Christ and His Word
remains in you, changing and renewing your mind, will you be able to ask
whatever you will and it will be done! Only when you live in continual
fellowship with Christ, through your faithfulness to Him, will you be able to
receive the fulfillment of His blessings.
PROSPERITY, BLESSING and ABUNDANCE were part of God's
covenant with Israel. However, the fulfillment of these promises was based upon
one thing...keeping their covenant with God through their faithfulness and
obedience to all His commandments.
Moses told the children of Israel there would be no poor among them
because God's blessings would be upon them if they would listen to God and
faithfully obey the commandments God gave them. (Deuteronomy 15.4-5)
God promised to bless and multiply them above all people. (Deuteronomy
17.13-14)
He promised to take away all sickness from among them. (Deuteronomy
7:15)
He promised to drive out all the nations from before them. (Deuteronomy
11:23)
He promised, "Every place where you set your foot will be yours..."
(Deuteronomy 11:24, NIV)
All of these blessings and more God promised to pour out upon His people
if they were faithful to Him and kept His commandments. Their faithfulness was
the key to walking in His supernatural provision. However, if they were not
faithful, they would live under the curses about which He had warned them.
A major part of their covenant with God was that they were to give their
offerings according to the instructions God had given them. In the wilderness,
God gave them specific commandments regarding the various types of offerings
they were to bring, how they were to give them and where they were to offer
them.
The children of Israel were not to give their tithes and offerings wherever
they chose. God told them, "I'm going to choose a place where I'm going to put
my name and make my habitation, where my presence will dwell. That's where I
will meet with you and where you must bring your tithes and offerings." It was
through these sacrifices and offerings that they were able to approach God and
fellowship with Him.
God told them, "Then to the place the LORD your God will choose as a
dwelling for his Name - there you are to bring everything I command you: your
burnt offerings and sacrifices, your tithes and special gifts, and all the choice
possessions you have vowed to the LORD." (Deuteronomy 12:11, NIV)
When they gave their tithes and offerings, it was not to be a solemn time
but a time of great rejoicing before the Lord with their family, servants and
entire household! And, they were to give them at a certain place.
God directed them to build an altar to offer their sacrifices at the place
where He chose to meet with them. It was there at His holy altar that He met
with them and received their tithes and offerings. The altar was the place of
sacrifice where He chose to meet with His people. It was the place where He
spoke to them and where His purpose and plan was received with a commitment.
During a time of famine, God directed Isaac not to go to Egypt but to stay
in the land God had promised the children of Israel. God said, "Sojourn in this
land, and I will be with thee, and will bless thee..." (Genesis 26:3)
Isaac obeyed God and sowed IN THAT LAND and received a hundredfold
increase the same year during a time of famine!
 "Then Isaac sowed in that land, and received in the same year an
hundredfold: and the Lord blessed him." (Genesis 26:12)
A RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD WHERE THERE
IS NO FEAR OF WANT!
When you bring your tithes and offerings to the altar, it should be a time of
communion and fellowship when you enter into His presence and worship Him.
It should be a time of great rejoicing in the abundance of all that He has given
you. You must give your tithes and offerings, according to the parable Jesus
gave us in Matthew 13:23, in special soil, not just every church, every need,
every Christian effort or endeavor, but in that land. It has to be the spiritually
fertile soil that has within it the power to grow your seed and multiply it!
What the children of Israel had was not a formula for getting their needs
met, but a relationship with Almighty God!
In this relationship, there was absolutely no fear of want. Having been
faithful and obedient to God in their giving and in keeping His commandments,
they knew God would do exactly what He had promised. They believed and
acted on God's promise to them.
There was no fear of crop failure.
There was no fear of drought.
There was no fear of famine.
There was no fear of hunger or starvation.
There was no fear of being barren!
They did not live in fear but rejoiced before God for His abundant
provision in their lives.
This is the relationship God wants you to have with Him as you worship
Him with your tithes and offerings.
The prosperity and strength of the children of Israel was dependent upon
their covenant relationship with God. God promised to bless and prosper them
above all other people upon the earth.
God told them, "And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently
unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments
which I command thee this day, that the Lord thy God will set thee on high
above all nations of the earth." (Deuteronomy 28:1)
As long as the children of Israel walked in covenant relationship with God
through their obedience in giving their tithes and offerings, and in keeping His
commandments, God COMMANDED His blessings upon them, upon their
families, upon their flocks and livestock, upon their crops and upon everything
they did. Moses told them,
"The Lord shall command the blessing upon thee in thy storehouses and in
all that thou settest thine hand unto... "
Deuteronomy 28:8
They did not have to struggle to obtain God's blessings. As they obeyed
God and were faithful in their giving, God's blessings pursued them!
"And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt
hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God."
Deuteronomy 28:2
The children of Israel did not go searching after God's blessings, they came
running after them!
As they walked in a covenant relationship with God, acknowledged Him as
their Source of Supply and honored Him through the giving of their tithes and
offerings, God prospered them until they were the richest people upon the earth!
When they presented God their first fruits, tithes and offerings, they did not
worry or become fearful concerning their crops or their coming harvest. They
did not worry about crop failure.
There was no fear of lack. God promised them, "Honour the Lord with thy
substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase: So shall thy barns be
filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine." (Proverbs 3:9-
10)
Having fulfilled God's commands, they left their gifts at the altar
KNOWING that God was faithful and would do ALL He had promised. They
did not wonder or question God; they knew He would release His blessings upon
them.
The children of Israel knew that God would rebuke the devourer for their
sakes!
They knew that God would open the windows of heaven on their behalf!
They knew that God would open the floodgates, release his blessings upon
them and give them the increase!
"Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may he 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."
Malachi 3:10, NIV
They knew that they would reap an abundant harvest!
 GOD WANTS YOU TO TAKE HIM AT HIS
WORD-TEST HIM!
The only way you will be able to stand during the current worldwide
financial crisis is to have this same strong covenant relationship with God. You
must have a personal intimate relationship with Him, whereby your dependence
is upon Him and you look to Him as your Source of Total Supply.
God wants you to walk and live continually in a covenant relationship with
Him whereby you honor Him by giving your tithes and offerings according to
the plan He gave you in His Word.
Regardless of your financial problems, as you give God the very best of all
that you have, He wants you to release your faith and trust Him to pour His
blessings back into your life. When you faithfully give as He directs you to give,
He wants you to take Him at His Word that He will not only meet your needs but
that His blessings will come running after you!
When you learn how to give according to His plan, you will not question or
doubt His provision. You will KNOW that He will release His abundance into
your life.
COVENANT WITH GOD THROUGH YOUR
GIVING!
In this current worldwide financial crisis God wants you to covenant with
Him now, through your giving. Just as the children of Israel gave their tithes and
offerings in obedience to Him, knowing that he would pour His promised
blessings into their lives, you can do the same!
When you give freely and liberally according to all He has directed you,
you can leave your gifts at the altar knowing God will rebuke the devourer for
your sake!
You will not be fearful about having sufficient finances for your needs
because you will know that your God will open the windows of heaven and pour
you out such a blessing that you will not even be able to receive it!
You will not worry about the provision for your daily needs. You will
know that God will fulfill all that He promised.
If you limit your giving according to your natural mind and what you think
you can give instead of raising the level of your faith and giving whatever God
directs you to give, you will never experience the abundance God planned you to
have.
There are many people who are so bound by the limitations of their natural
minds that they cannot believe God for the financial miracle they need. Instead
of giving to God, believing Him to supply their need, they are bound by fear.
Instead of living in fear and discouragement concerning your finances, you
must live according to the promises God has given you:
"The Lord shall command the blessing upon thee in thy storehouses, and in
all that thou settest thine hand unto.." (Deuteronomy 28:8)
"And the Lord shall make thee plenteous in goods..." (Deuteronomy 28:11)
"The Lord shall open unto thee his good treasure..." (Deuteronomy 28:12)
"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 heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room
enough to receive it" (Malachi 3:10)
"Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and
shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom..." (Luke
6:38)
"But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by
Christ Jesus." (Philippians 4:19)
I am not talking about just memorizing and repeating these verses. I am
talking about getting these promises so deeply into your spirit that they come
alive within you.
I am talking about these promises becoming living realities in your life!
Instead of allowing financial problems or crises to discourage and defeat
you, you must act in faith on the Word, believing God will fulfill His will and
supernaturally meet your need.
ALLOW GOD TO DIRECT YOU IN YOUR
GIVING!
In this covenant relationship with God, you must be directed by His Spirit
in your giving. You must learn to hear His voice and then obey.
Give whatever He asks you to give...
When He says to give...
Where He wants you to give!
Your faithfulness and obedience are the keys to living in the blessings and
prosperity God provided for you.
You must begin to face your financial problems head on. You cannot afford
to deal with them on a superficial level or in the natural realm. There are many
people who are so far in debt that there is no possible solution in the natural. The
only way for them to get out from under the tremendous load of debt that they
carry is for God to supernaturally intervene and give them a miracle of debt
cancellation.
To experience your financial breakthrough, you cannot face your financial
problems in your own name or in your own strength. You must face them in the
name that is above every other name...Jesus Christ, the Son of the living God.
WITHOUT FEAR... AND WITHOUT A DOUBT!
God wants you to come into a covenant agreement so strong that you stand
before Him, in faith, with the total absence of doubt!
Knowing that it is His will to prosper you and knowing that you have been
faithful and obedient through your giving, you must go before God, without
doubt, believing and expecting Him to break the bondage of debt from your life
and release His supernatural provision.
In chapter six, I will share with you about how Satan uses unbelief as a
major weapon to keep you in financial bondage and how to go beyond doubt to a
position of faith.
This is God's time to release a financial anointing upon you and give you
your financial breakthrough. But, you must TAKE IT BY FAITH! DO NOT
WAVER! RELEASE YOUR FAITH NOW AND TAKE IT IN JESUS' NAME!

CHAPTER 6
RAISE THE LEVEL OF YOUR FAITH
In the midst of the financial turmoil that is already sweeping around the
world, God has given me a word of financial deliverance for you:
This is God's time to give you a financial breakthrough! God will not only
break the bondage of debt and release a miracle of debt cancellation, He will
release His supernatural increase into your life.
Are you ready to receive a blessing unlike any other blessing you have ever
received?
God wants you to experience a financial breakthrough now!
It is His hour for you to receive your full financial release.
God showed me many hundreds and thousands of people who are having
financial struggles greater than they have ever experienced.
God showed me some of the heartaches, trials and tests you have been
going through with your finances. You may have become so burdened down
under the financial pressures and burdens you carry that you are at a point of
losing hope.
LINE YOURSELF UP WITH GOD'S WORD!
God placed a word of financial deliverance in my mouth for you. If you
will line yourself up with the Word, raise your level of faith and dare to take it,
God will break the bondage of debt from your life and give you the financial
miracle you need.
There are three basic actions you must take to break out of financial
bondage and position yourself to receive the financial increase God wants you to
have.
1. You must know it is God's will to prosper you.
2. You must face your financial problems head on. You must not face
them in your own name or in your own limited, natural power, but in the name
that is above every other name, WITHOUT FEAR!
3. You must come into covenant relationship with God where you stand
before Him by faith...with the TOTAL ABSENCE OF DOUBT!
Jesus said, "...If ye have faith, and doubt not..." you will be able to say to
the mountain, be removed and cast into the seas and it would be done! (Matthew
21:21) He said, "And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye
shall receive." (Matthew 21:22)
If you have doubt and waver or hesitate to take hold of God's promises, you
will never receive anything. The Apostle James said, "But let him ask in faith,
nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the
wind and tossed." (James 1:6)
UNBELIEF WILL KEEP YOU IN FINANCIAL
BONDAGE!
In the midst of a great famine that covered Samaria, God placed a word of
financial deliverance in Elisha's mouth. Ben Hadad, King of Syria, and his
armies had besieged Samaria. It was the King's plan to capture the city, not by
battering down the walls but by cutting off all its supplies and starving the
people to death.
Hunger and starvation in the city had reached a point of great desperation.
Food was so scarce that a donkey's head sold for eighty shekels of silver. The
donkey was considered an unclean animal and would not be eaten at all except
as a last resort. The horror of starvation had driven the people to cannibalism!
Conditions were so devastating that mothers had actually eaten their own babies!
The King of Samaria became so enraged over the terrible conditions of the
famine, he swore that he would cut off Elisha's head and he sent one of his men
ahead of him to arrest Elisha.
Elisha was not afraid. God had given him advance information, a
breakthrough in the Spirit and he knew the King and his messenger were on their
way. (II Kings 7:31-33) He was not fearful regarding his circumstances or
concerning the famine. His eyes were not on the famine but upon Almighty God!
God gave him a prophetic message and promise of deliverance for the
people of Samaria. Elisha said, "... Hear the word of the Lord: Thus says the
Lord, Tomorrow about this time a measure of fine flour will sell for a shekel,
and two measures of barley for a shekel, in the gate of Samaria!" (II Kings 7:i,
AMP)
The captain challenged Elisha, "...If the Lord would make windows in
Heaven, could this thing be?..." Elisha answered, "... You shall see it with your
own eyes, but you shall not eat of it." (II Kings 7:2, TAB) In this story, we see
another major weapon that Satan will use to keep you in financial
bondage...UNBELIEF!
Whenever any prophetic message from God is given, those who are full of
unbelief will always challenge it. In this instance, the captain would not receive
this prophetic promise because he had already placed limitations upon what God
could do, according to his own natural mind. He could not believe God was able
to fulfill His promises and supernaturally provide the flour and barley they
needed even if He made windows in heaven and poured it down upon them!
DON'T BLAME SOMEONE ELSE! UNBELIEF IS
A PERSONAL MATTER. IS IT YOURS?
His unbelief did not shake Elisha. It did not cause him to waver or wonder
if he had really heard from God. He did not back down or compromise his
message to make it more acceptable. He told the captain, "You're going to see it
with your own eyes, but you're not going to have any part in it!"
This is what unbelief will do in your life. Unbelief will blind you from
seeing what God wants to do in your finances.
Unbelief will block you from receiving God's promises into your spirit and
stop you from stepping out in faith to appropriate them in your circumstances.
UNBELIEF WILL CAUSE YOU TO QUESTION
GOD
Deliverance for the people of Samaria came through God's supernatural
intervention. In one day, without them even lifting their swords, God
supernaturally put their enemies to flight and there was a supernatural
transference of the wealth of the Syrians into their hands! "...the wealth of the
sinner is laid up for the just." (Proverbs 13:22)
During the night, God caused the Syrians to hear the noise of a great
multitude of men and horses and the Syrians thought the king of Israel had sent
the kings of the Hittites and Egyptians to fight against them.
The Syrians were so stricken with terror that they ran for their lives, leaving
behind their horses, tents, supplies and all their silver and gold! (verses 6-7)!
When the four lepers marched into the camp of the Syrians and saw that the
Syrians had fled leaving everything behind them, they began to eat and drink and
take some of the spoils for themselves. When they realized that what they were
doing was wrong, they returned to Samaria to tell the king what had happened.
After the king sent some servants to verify what the lepers said was true, the
people rushed out of the city into the Syrian camp and took the spoils.
The prophecy spoken through Elisha was fulfilled! "...So a measure of fine
flour was sold for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, according
to the word of the Lord." (II Kings 7:16) And it will come to pass in this end-
time hour.
 "When he had broken the third seal, I heard the third Living Being say,
"Come!" And I saw a black horse, with its rider holding a pair of balances in his
hand. And a voice from among the four Living Beings said, "A loaf of bread for
$20, or three pounds of barley flour, but there is no olive oil or wine"
Revelation 6:5-6, NIV
The captain, who was full of unbelief and had challenged Elisha and the
prophecy, saw the fulfillment of the prophecy but he did not partake of it. He
was appointed to be in charge of the gate. The starving people, who came to the
gate to get the food and spoils, trampled him and he was killed.
Unbelief shut an entire generation of the children of Israel out of the
Promised Land! (Hebrews 5.19)
Unbelief will block you from receiving the things you need from God!
Unbelief will cause you to question God and limit what He can do for you!
Unbelief will cause you, in your time of need, to harden your heart against
God because of the circumstances you face. Instead of reaching out to God, you
will depend upon your own limited resources. There will be many Christians in
this end-time hour who will see the fulfillment of God's promises but will be
unable to partake of them through their unbelief.
However, when you have entered into a covenant relationship with God in
which you know it is His will to prosper you, and you have lined yourself up
with the Word and walk in obedience to the pattern He set for giving, and you
come before Him boldly, without doubt, God will release His supernatural
provision into your life. The bondage of debt will be broken and you will live in
His cycle of supernatural provision!
WHERE IS THE LEVEL OF YOUR FAITH?
Is your faith fixed on the only thing in this world which cannot be
shaken...the infallible, impregnable Word of the living God?
Do you believe God will release His supernatural provision in the financial
circumstances you face?
Do you expect God to bless and prosper you...to multiply and release His
supernatural increase into your life?
In your giving to God, where is the level of your faith?
Do you give according to the limitations of your natural mind, or do you
take the limits off God and give even beyond your natural ability to give?
If your faith is at a level where you expect God to enable you to pay off an
overdue bill, raise the level of your faith to believe God for a miracle of debt
cancellation for all your overdue bills so that you will be debt free!
If your faith is at a level where you believe God to meet your immediate
needs, raise the level of your faith to believe God to release His abundance into
your life so that not only will your needs be met but you will be able to sow
more into the work of God in the nations of the world.
Whatever you do, do not limit God. Take the limits off what God will do
for you and through you!
GOD DESIRES TO POUR HIS ABUNDANCE
INTO YOUR LIFE
God showed me that now is the time for Him to transfer the wealth of the
wicked into the hands of the just! Throughout the Word, we read time after time
of how God gave the children of Israel the "spoils" of their enemies and how He
took the wealth of the heathen nations and placed it within their hands, "...the
wealth of the sinner is laid up for the just." (Proverbs 13:22) Just as God
transferred the wealth of the heathen nations into the hands of the children of
Israel, He will transfer the wealth of ungodly men, today, into the Kingdom of
God...into the hands of His people!
God set a time when He will shake the nations and the wealth of the nations
will come into the Kingdom of God! God spoke through the prophet Haggai,
"And 1 will shake all the nations; and they will come with the wealth of all
nations; and I will fill this house with glory, says the Lord of hosts. 'The silver is
Mine, and the gold is Mine,' declares the Lord of hosts. 'The latter glory of this
house will be greater than the former,' says the Lord of hosts, and in this place I
shall give peace,' declares the Lord of hosts." (Haggai 2:7 -9, NAS)
It is God's will today, in this end-time harvest, to bless and prosper His
people above all other people upon the earth! God's Word, from cover to cover,
is filled with His promises concerning His supernatural provision and the
abundance He desires to pour out upon His people. Within the Body of Christ,
we have not yet seen nor experienced the supernatural abundance God promised.
Yet, it is clearly God's will that there be no lack in the House of God and that
His work flourish around the world!
He desires to break the bondage of debt from your life and give you all that
you have the faith to claim of His immeasurable, unlimited riches and
supernatural provision!
God has revealed to me that now is the time for Him to begin a new system
of transferring the wealth of the wicked into the hands of the just! He has placed
a prophetic word in my mouth for the Body of Christ concerning the end-time
finances of His people:
The time has come for God to begin transferring the wealth of the wicked
into the hands of the righteous! God will shake the nations and cause the wealth
of the nations to come to His people!
God is raising up a specific breed of end-time people who have heard the
call and have responded to the inner wooing of the Holy Spirit by laying their
lives down before God as living sacrifices.
This will be a people who have passed over the line and are not looking
back to the world, a people who have joined themselves in holiness,
righteousness and sanctification to the end time purposes of God Almighty.
These people will hear and act according to God's direction. They will be
uniquely joined together with God and the world will know, as it knew through
the Jew, that there is only one true God. He is not Mohamed. He is not Buddha.
He is Jehovah, God Almighty!
God will bless and set these people apart. They will be marked by His
name and they will prosper in the midst of the adversity of the world. He will
pour His wealth and blessings into their lives, unlike anything we have ever seen
before, and use them as end-time financiers to finance the end-time harvest.
Receive the Word of the Lord into your spirit and act on it!
The wealth of this world does not belong to the sinner!
It is not under the control of the world's governments or banking
institutions!
The diamond and gold mines, the oil fields and other precious minerals, the
earth with all its riches belong to God. ""The earth is the Lord's, and the fullness
thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein" (Psalm 24:1). The "...cattle upon
a thousand hills" belong to Him. (Psalm 50:10) God said, "The silver is mine,
and the gold is mine..." (Haggai 2:8)
DO NOT ALLOW SATAN TO ROB YOU!
During this end-time harvest, the most incredible wealth will be transferred
to the Kingdom of God from the ungodly. God will cause the wealth of the
sinners to be transferred into the hands of His people. Businesses, houses, land
and other sources of wealth will be supernaturally given to God's people. The
ungodly will not give it. God will take it from them.
The purpose of this transfer of wealth is not so that God's people will be
able to keep it or hoard it for themselves. God will put it into the hands of those
who will use it in fulfilling the divine mandate He gave us to evangelize the
world.
God is raising up a holy remnant of people who are 100 percent
consecrated and sold out to Him, through whom He can pour great wealth and
blessings to finance the end-time harvest. The wicked, unbelieving generation,
will not do it. God wants to do it through us! He wants to do it through you!
In this end-time hour, before Christ returns, God did not plan for the
Church to be limited by a lack of finances. It is His will to pour His abundance
into our lives so that we will accomplish all the work He called us to do in our
cities, nations and around the world.
The Church has been hindered because we have limited what God will do
for us according to our limited, natural understanding. We have allowed Satan to
rob us and take what rightfully belongs to us, instead of exercising the power
and authority God has given us as joint-heirs of the Kingdom of God, to rebuke
Satan and take hold of God's supernatural provision.
Do you think for one moment that God wants churches and ministries to
cut back on the ministry outreaches He called us to do, in reaching more than
two billion people who have never heard the name of Jesus?
Absolutely not!
Our time is short...Jesus is coming!
We do not have time to make excuses as to why we are not getting the job
done. Nor can we refrain from stepping out in faith to obey God and do what He
called us to do because we think we do not have the necessary finances.
Now is the time for God to begin transferring the wealth of the wicked into
the hands of the righteous! God is now preparing a people who will set
themselves apart to be used in these closing moments of time before Christ
returns, to finance the end-time harvest. God will set these people apart and,
even during worldwide economic crisis, He will release His blessings upon them
to fulfill His purposes.
Are you ready for God to transfer the wealth of the wicked into your
hands?
"...the wealth of the sinner is laid up for the just."
Proverbs 13:22
ACT UPON GOD'S PROPHETIC WORD TO
YOU!
The time has come for God to open the windows of heaven and pour out
such a blessing upon His people that they will be unable to contain it. His
purpose is to release this wealth into the hands of His people but not for selfish
reasons.
In this great end-time harvest, it will take multiplied millions of dollars to
reach the world with the Gospel. As you respond in faith and dedicate yourself
and all that you have to God, He will give you a financial breakthrough, release
His blessings upon you and use you as a conduit to pour His finances through
you. You will become one of God's End-Time Financiers for His end-time
harvest!
Position yourself right now to experience the financial breakthrough that
you need:
1. Focus your eyes upon God as your source of total supply!
2. Walk in covenant relationship with God wherein you live in obedience
to Him and give according to the plan He revealed in His Word.
3. Bind the spirits of fear, worry and doubt from your mind!
4. Raise the level of your faith by acting upon the Word God has spoken
to you!
5. Dedicate your finances to God.
You have a choice. You can hear the word of revelation, sit back and say to
yourself, "My, what a wonderful prophecy," but never act upon it and never
experience the fulfillment of it in your life. Or, you can let God raise the level of
your faith to understand how He wants to pour His wealth and blessings into
your life and act upon this prophetic word, believing God to fulfill it in your life.
Get ready for God to take you beyond the limitations of your natural mind
into a new realm of faith where you believe and expect Him to pour His wealth
and blessings through you as one of His End-Time Financiers!
Are you ready to move into a cycle of God's supernatural provision? In
chapter seven, I will share with you more about this cycle and three powerful
keys to walking in financial victory!
Do not miss acting on God's revelation.
Do not miss activating God's supernatural provision.
Do not miss entering into your covenant relationship.
Timing is God's key to any kind of breakthrough - spiritual, physical or
financial.
USE THE KEY!

CHAPTER 7
LIVE IN GOD'S CYCLE OF
SUPERNATURAL PROVISION
The key to breakthrough is timing...knowing God's timing and not getting
ahead of God nor falling behind.
The key to your financial breakthrough is timing. The Bible teaches us that
there is a time, a season, for everything, "... a time to plant, and a time to pluck
up..." (Ecclesiastes 3:2) There is a time to grow and a time to harvest and then
there is the time of the manifestation of partaking, enjoying, reaping and eating
what we have harvested. Each period of time, in God's manifestations to the
world, brings forth unique manifestations.
God moves in cycles. A cycle is a period of time in which an event occurs.
It has a beginning point and an ending point. We are living in God's end-time
harvest cycle. And, in this end-time harvest, God has an end-time cycle of
prosperity for His people.
God put a word in my mouth for you and revealed that this is His time to
release upon His people an end-time financial anointing to break the bondage of
debt from their lives and release a miracle of debt cancellation!
Are you ready to take it?
There are many Christians who have experienced tremendous struggles,
heartaches and trials in the area of their finances. There have been times when
they have been so discouraged, weary and depressed they did not know if they
would ever survive. They were ready to give up.
You may be at this point.
If you will hear the word of the Lord, believe it and act upon it, in faith,
God will not only release this financial anointing upon you, but you will also
experience the miracle of debt cancellation.
You must get your eyes off your circumstances, off the bigness of your
debt and onto the supernatural provision of the Almighty God! The time for you
to act upon God's Word to you is now, while this financial anointing is being
released.
FOUR THINGS GOD WANTS TO DO FOR YOU
NOW!
 There are four things God will do if you will release your faith and act on
His Word:
1. God will break the yoke of financial bondage from your life but He
wants you to prove Him through your obedience in following the pattern He
established concerning giving and receiving.
2. He will give you a miracle of debt cancellation but you must get your
eyes off the bigness of your debt and obey Him.
3. You will reap a hundredfold return if you faint not. But, you must first
sow the seed, even in your time of financial famine. 4. God will transfer the
world's wealth to His children. This is God's time! It is His hour for you to
receive your financial release! It is time for you to claim Malachi 3:11 over your
finances. God promised, as you give your tithes and offering, that He will rebuke
the devourer for "your" sake!
Whatever stranglehold the enemy has upon your finances will be broken in
Jesus' name!
To experience financial deliverance and receive God's provision during this
present worldwide financial crisis and your time of financial famine, there are
six major steps you must take:
1. Bind spirits of fear, worry and unbelief from your mind.
2. Get your eyes off your lack and off your financial problems.
3. Stop depending upon your own limited, natural resources, and depend
upon God as your source of total supply.
4. Do not withhold from God your tithes and offerings. Give liberally,
expecting God to multiply it back into your life.
5. Line yourself up with the Word and walk in obedience to God.
6. Ask in faith, without doubting.
It is impossible to take these six important acts of faith in your own limited
strength. It is the anointing of the Holy Spirit flowing through you that will
enable you to take these steps to receive God's supernatural provision.
This anointing of the Holy Spirit comes from God. Jesus promised, "But
the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name,
he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance,
whatsoever I have said unto you." (John 14:26)
The Holy Spirit remains in you and releases His power within you to act in
accordance with God's Word.
"But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye
need not any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all
things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide
in him."
1 John 2:27
GOD WANTS YOU TO DRAW UPON THE
SUPERNATURAL RESOURCES OF HEAVEN!
Jesus taught His disciples, through His example, how to trust and believe
God for His supernatural provision. There is one story I really love. Jesus
manifested a miracle to teach Peter not to rely upon man's resources but to draw
from God's supernatural resources.
This story ministers to me because it not only reveals God's great desire to
release His supernatural provision to meet our needs but also because it is
recorded as a living testimony so that we will know God will do the same for us.
As you read this story, think about your financial problems.
Are you struggling under a weight of debt? Is there a financial need in your
life to which there is no natural answer?
Release your faith, expecting God to supernaturally intervene and release a
financial miracle into your life.
The tax collectors came to Peter to collect the yearly temple tax of a shekel,
which was required of every Jew. When Peter came into the house to gather the
money for the taxes, Jesus stopped him. He asked Peter, "What do you think,
Simon? From whom do the kings of the earth collect duty and taxes - from their
own sons or from others?" "From others," Peter answered. Jesus said, "Then the
sons are exempt."
Jesus was the Son of God. The Temple was His Father's house and He was
not obligated to pay this tax for the service of the Temple. But since He did not
want to offend the Jewish leaders by refusing to pay the tax, He paid it through
an incredible miracle of debt cancellation.
Everything Jesus did was for a divine purpose. He could have had Peter pay
this tax from their own treasury but He didn't. Instead, He chose to draw upon
the supernatural resources of Heaven. Jesus told Peter to go to the sea and cast
his hook into the water. He told Peter to take the first fish he caught, open its
mouth and that he would find a piece of money in it.
Peter did not try to rationalize or determine how this could possibly take
place. In the natural, it was impossible! He did not try to pump up faith to
receive this miracle. He simply believed and acted according to Christ's word.
CAST YOUR HOOK INTO THE SEA!
 As Peter acted, God prepared a special fish with the exact amount of money
necessary in its mouth to pay the Temple tax. Peter went to the sea and cast his
hook expecting to receive what Christ had promised.
In the financial circumstance you face, are you looking to God expecting to
receive the fulfillment of His promises?
This miracle of God's supernatural provision is what He will do in your life
to meet the financial problems you face. To receive a miracle of debt
cancellation, you must have a breakthrough that will take you beyond the
limitations of your natural mind and your natural resources.
Revelation is never interpreted through the natural mind. "But the natural
man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto
him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned" (I
Corinthians 2:14).
If Peter had limited what Christ could do according to his natural mind, he
would never have received God's supernatural provision. It was foolish to his
natural mind that a fish would have money in its mouth to pay the tax.
God wants to cancel your debt by His supernatural provision, not by the
natural laws of man. If you limit what God will do for you according to your
natural mind, you will never be able to comprehend how God can supernaturally
cancel your debt.
Your natural mind will tell you it's impossible!
Your natural mind will tell you your debt is too large!
Your natural mind will hinder you from acting upon God's promises!
This is God's time for you to receive a miracle of debt cancellation. Act
while the financial anointing is being released. Peter did not receive a miracle of
debt cancellation until he cast his hook into the sea.
Right now, ask God to take you beyond the limitations of your natural
mind. Ask Him to raise the level of your faith to believe and expect Him to
supernaturally cancel your debt.
Cast your hook into the sea! Act upon God's promises. Give to God what
He directs. Take every limitation off Him and be set free from every bondage of
debt, in Jesus' Name. Raise your spiritual sight! Go beyond horizon vision! Lift
the level of your faith!
"Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we
ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us... "
Ephesians 3:20
GOD'S PLAN OF PROVISION FOR HIS PEOPLE
 Christians today are tired of the manipulation of man concerning their
giving to God. In the past ten years, within the Body of Christ, there has been a
major emphasis in teaching finances and God's plan to prosper His people.
With all the various "theories" and "formulas" concerning finance, there is
confusion regarding the "prosperity" message. There are many Christians who
don't know what to believe. They do not know God's will and they have not had
a breakthrough in understanding and appropriating His promises in their
circumstances.
What God's people need today is not another man-made "formula" about
how to get their needs met. What we must have, within the Body of Christ, is a
fresh revelation of God's plan of provision for His people!
We do not need to hear more of man's theology or more head-knowledge.
We need to hear, "Thus saith the Lord"... what God's Word reveals and what
God is saying to us in this end-time hour concerning our finances!
As God's plan of supernatural provision is unveiled to you through His
Word, you will have a new understanding of the covenant relationship God
entered into with you. You will no longer depend upon your own limited natural
resources. You will receive a financial breakthrough in which you will live in a
cycle where you experience His supernatural provision in your life.
God wants you to see...to know...to experience...His supernatural provision
in your life. He has entered into a blood covenant with you that is sealed with the
blood of Jesus. Within this covenant, there is total provision for every need in
your life.
The key to releasing God's blessings upon your finances is not in following
a "formula" to get what you need from God. The key is in developing your
relationship with Him, where you understand all that He provides for you in His
covenant with you, recognize Him as your Source and faithfully walk in
obedience to the pattern He established concerning giving and receiving.
Just as God supernaturally provided the tax money Peter needed, God
wants you to live in a cycle of His supernatural provision, whereby, He meets all
your needs.
This cycle of God's supernatural provision is found in II Corinthians. "Now
he that ministereth seed to the sower both minister bread for your food, and
multiply your seed sown, and increase the fruits of your righteousness; Being
enriched in every thing to all bountifulness, which causeth through us
thanksgiving to God. For the administration of this service not only supplieth the
want of the saints, but is abundant also by many thanksgivings unto God;" (II
Corinthians 9:10-12)
The words "ministereth" and "ministers" are translated from a Greek word
which means "to furnish abundantly". Paul said, "God, who furnishes an
abundance of seed to the sower, will also provide an abundance of bread for
your food." You will be enriched. ..made rich in everything and in every
way...not just spiritually rich but in every way.
GOD HAS PLANNED FOR YOU TO HAVE A
CONTINUAL FLOW OF HIS PROVISION INTO
YOUR LIFE
In these verses, there are three powerful keys to walking in financial
victory and living in God's cycle of supernatural provision:
1. God will provide seed for you to sow.
2. God will supply your need.
3. God will multiply your seed.
Man lives in two worlds...the natural world and the spiritual world. In the
natural world, a farmer who wants to reap a big crop of wheat or corn prepares
the soil and sows the seed. Within each seed is the ability to multiply and
reproduce. In some instances, one seed can produce hundreds of other seeds.
When harvest time comes and the farmer returns to his field to reap his
crop, he does not simply reap the yield of the initial seed he sowed but an
abundance. He also reaps an increase of the seed he sowed. He may have planted
five bushels of corn seed but his crop has multiplied many times over that
amount. He reaps many times over and above what he planted.
From the abundance of the harvest, the farmer selects the best seed and sets
it aside to use in planting his next crop. He does not set aside damaged seed or
"culls" but the very best seed to ensure that he will have a good harvest the
following year.
The farmer does not struggle to produce more seed. The seeds which he
sows each year produce more until there is a continual supply. He not only reaps
an abundant harvest which provides for his own needs, but also one which
provides more seed for a future harvest. The farmer plants the seed but it is God
who causes the seed to grow and multiply. It is God who provides the seed.
All truth is parallel.
In the spiritual world, when you plant a seed...give to God and His
work...you can not only expect a harvest but an abundance. The seed, which you
plant...the monies, tithes and offerings you give to God...are like the natural
seeds you plant. They possess within them the ability to multiply. As you plant
your seed into the work of God, He causes it to multiply until there is an
abundance.
Not only do you reap a yield from the initial seed that you sow, but also the
increase of the seed sown. As a result, you reap many times over and above what
you plant. From this abundance, you have sufficient supply for your needs and
more to sow back into the Kingdom of God.
You need not struggle to produce the seed, it is God who
ministereth...provides abundantly...the seed for you to sow. As you plant a seed,
God takes what you give and multiplies it until there is an abundance. Then, as
you take part of your harvest and sow it back into the work of God, He
multiplies it again.
The more you give to God and to the work of building the Kingdom of
God, the more you will receive in return...the more you will be able to give...the
more you will receive...until you live in a cycle of God's supernatural provision
in which there is a continual flow of God's blessing and provision in your life.
BELIEVE GOD FOR CONTINUAL DAILY
PROVISION
In God's cycle of supernatural provision, there is no fear, doubt, unbelief,
worry, confusion or hesitancy. You give to God and receive His supernatural
provision in return, plus increase. As you give from your increase, the cycle
continues.
In this cycle is total provision and continual supply. What you give to God
multiplies so fast you cannot harvest it fast enough!
Think about the needs you face now in your life...the financial problems
that seem impossible, the overdue bills, the lack of sufficient income. Not only
has God made it possible, through His covenant, to meet those specific needs,
He wants you to enter into a covenant relationship with Him in which there is
continual daily provision for all your needs.
Begin today to draw near to Him, by faith, in unbroken fellowship in which
you continually draw from Him everything you need. If you have not been
consistent or faithful in your giving, make a recommitment like the children of
Israel did in this scripture.
Give liberally and joyfully to God. Put Him first in your finances. God will
multiply what you give, not only will your needs be met, you will have plenty to
spare!
 As you continually look to God and walk in a covenant relationship with
Him, you will not only survive during the current worldwide financial crisis, you
will walk in His supernatural provision.
Receive your financial breakthrough, in Jesus' Name!
In chapter eight, I have given you nine scriptural guidelines for giving. I
challenge you to memorize these along with the Scriptures.
Meditate on them and get them deep into your spirit to apply them in your
giving.
As you act in faith on God's Word and give Him your best, I believe you
will enter a new dimension of God's supernatural provision.

CHAPTER 8
NINE SCRIPTURAL GUIDELINES FOR
GIVING
1. GIVE WILLINGLY.
"Speak unto the children of Israel, that they bring me an offering: of every
man that giveth it willingly with his heart ye shall take my offering." (Exodus
25:2) "For if there be first a willing mind, it is accepted according to that a man
hath, and not according to that he hath not." (II Corinthians 8:12)
2. GIVE UNGRUDGINGLY AND CHEERFULLY.
"Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not
grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver!' (II Corinthians 9:7)
3. GIVE SACRIFICIALLY.
"Moreover, brethren, we do you to wit of the grace of God bestowed on the
churches of Macedonia; How that in a great trial of affliction the abundance of
their joy and their deep poverty abounded unto the riches of their liberality. For
to their power, I bear record, yea, and beyond their power they were willing of
themselves; Praying us with much entreaty that we would receive the gift, and
take upon us the fellowship of the ministering to the saints." (II Corinthians 8:1-
4)
"And he called unto him his disciples, and saith unto them, Verily I say
unto you, That this poor widow hath cast more in, than all they which have cast
into the treasury: For all they did cast in of their abundance; but she of her want
did cast in all that she had, even her living" (Mark 12:43-44)
4. GIVE LIBERALLY.
"The liberal soul shall be made fat: and he that watereth shall be watered
also himself!' (Proverbs 11:25) "He that hath a bountiful eye shall be blessed;
for he giveth of his bread to the poor" (Proverbs 22:9)
5. GIVE WITH PURE MOTIVES.
"Then the people rejoiced, for that they offered willingly, because with
perfect heart they offered willingly to the Lord: and David the king also rejoiced
with great joy." (I Chronicles 29:9)
"And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my
body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing." (I Corinthians
13 -3)
6. GIVE UNBLEMISHED OFFERINGS.
"Speak unto Aaron, and to his sons, and unto all the children of Israel, and
say unto them, Whatsoever he be of the house of Israel, or of the strangers in
Israel, that will offer his oblation for all his vows, and for all his freewill
offerings, which they will offer unto the Lord for a burnt offering; Ye shall offer
at your own will a male without blemish, of the beeves, of the sheep, or of the
goats.
But whatsoever hath a blemish, that shall ye not offer: for it shall not be
acceptable for you." (Leviticus 22:18-20)
7. GIVE WITH SIMPLICITY.
"Or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that giveth, let him do it with
simplicity; he that ruleth, with diligence; he that showeth mercy, with
cheerfulness." (Romans 12:8)
8. GIVE WITHOUT SEEKING MAN'S RECOGNITION.
"Take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them:
otherwise ye have no reward of your Father which is in heaven. Therefore when
thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do
in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I
say unto you , They have their reward. But when thou doest alms, let not thy left
hand know what thy right hand doeth: That thine alms may be in secret: and thy
Father which seeth in secret himself shall reward thee openly." (Matthew 6:1-4)
9. GIVE EXPECTING GOD TO MEET YOUR NEEDS.
"Honour the Lord with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine
increase: So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out
with new wine." (Proverbs 3:9-10)
"Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and
shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the
same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again"(Luke 6:38)
"But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by
Christ Jesus. "(Philippians 4:19)
In the following chapter there are ten crucial questions you must ask
yourself that will enable you to take hold of God's promises of supernatural
provision.
Please, whatever you do, do not take these questions lightly. Do not rush
through them. As you read each question, ask the Holy Spirit to speak to you and
open your spiritual eyes to determine any areas where you may not be giving
according to what He has revealed in His Word.
Chapter nine is one of the most important chapters in this book.
If you want to experience a financial breakthrough and enter a flow of
God's supernatural provision, you must apply the Scriptures and act in faith upon
God's promises to you.
Faith is a fact but faith is an act!

CHAPTER 9
FINANCIAL BREAKTHROUGH
CHECKLIST
When you face financial problems, there are major considerations to make,
based upon strong scriptural principles, that will enable you to experience your
financial breakthrough.
The checklist is based upon major foundational truths concerning giving
and receiving that God established which will enable you to take hold of His
promises of supernatural provision.
Use this checklist to determine if you are following God's plan of giving
and receiving. Prayerfully ask yourself the following questions and read the
references listed. Ask God to help you determine any areas where you are not
acting in accordance with His plan.
1. Do I act in faith on God's promises, expecting Him to meet my needs,
or am I bound by fear, worry and doubt concerning my financial circums tances
?
Read: I Kings 17:1-16 II Kings 4:1-7 Luke 12:22-29
ACTION: The moment spirits of fear and doubt attack your mind
concerning your financial problems, take authority over them in the name of
Jesus!
Satan's objective is to keep your mind in a constant state of turmoil
worrying over your finances. Be on your guard! The moment you begin to worry
or allow fear and doubt into your heart and mind concerning your financial
circumstance, you open yourself to defeat.
Bind the spirits of fear, doubt and worry from your mind and release your
faith. Act in faith upon God's promises to you.
2. Do I focus on my lack, look to man or depend on limited resources, or
do I trust and depend on God as my source of total supply?
Read: II Chronicles 31:4-10 Deuteronomy 8:3-10,18 Philippians 4:19
ACTION: Get your eyes off your lack...off your needs...off your financial
circumstances...off your overdue bills...off your seemingly impossible
circumstances!
Change your spiritual focus! Remember that God is your source of total
supply. It is He who gives you the power to get wealth. Focus your spiritual eyes
on His unlimited resources instead of your financial needs or problems. By faith,
begin to praise and thank Him for His provision in your life. Offer a sacrifice of
praise for the financial miracle you need even before you see it manifested.
3. Have I followed God's plan of giving and receiving or have I withheld
my tithes and offerings?
Read: Deuteronomy 28:12, 15, 23-24 Deuteronomy 14:22-29 Deuteronomy
11:16-21 Proverbs 11:24-25
ACTION: The worst action you can take when you face financial
difficulties is to forget God and to withhold your tithes and offerings.
Withholding from God will bring you into a cycle of financial defeat in which
you live under a "closed heaven."
Reevaluate your giving. If you have been withholding your tithes and
offerings, ask God to forgive you. God's Word teaches that we are to give freely,
willingly and liberally to God, even in times of adversity, and He will multiply it
back into our lives to meet our needs.
Break the bondage of debt from your life! Determine that you will not
withhold your giving to God but will continue to sow seeds...to give liberally
and faithfully even in times of great difficulty, knowing that He will multiply
what you give to meet your need.
RELEASE IS THE KEY TO YOUR INCREASE. As you release your
offering in faith, God will take what you give and RELEASE His abundance into
your life.
4. Do I walk in a strong covenant relationship with Christ whereby I live
in obedience to Him and His Word? Do I obey God's directives concerning my
giving?
Read: Deuteronomy 12:5-9 Deuteronomy 28:1-8,11 Joshua 1:7-8 I Samuel
15:22-23
ACTION: The one major key to walking in financial freedom and victory
wherein you reap God's promised blessings is obedience. God is not interested in
your going through the outward observances and routine of giving your offerings
without your obedience. All your offerings and sacrificial gifts are unacceptable
if you do not give in obedience to Him.
If you have disobeyed God by failing to give what He directed you, ask
Him to forgive you. Regardless of your financial circumstances, ask God to
reveal what He would have you give. Then give whatever he asks you to give as
a sacrifice of obedience.
5. Do I give to God from pure motives?
 Read: I Chronicles 29:2-9
Matthew 6:1-4 Matthew 26:6-13 Mark 11:15-17
ACTION: If you give with pure motives, from your heart of love as an act
of worship, your offerings will be accepted by God and He will reward you. You
can give a million dollars but if it is not given from a heart of love it is not
acceptable to God and it profits you nothing!
Be open and honest before God. What are your motives for giving? Do you
give to receive the recognition and approval of man? Is the major reason you
give to God because you want to receive more in return to fulfill your own
carnal, selfish lusts? Do you give because you feel pressured to give or from a
sense of obligation or fear?
If you have not given to God with pure motives, ask God to forgive you
and cleanse you of all impure motives and desires. Each time you give your
tithes and offerings, be sure that you give to God because of your love for Him,
with a thankful heart, in worship and praise for who He is and all He has done
for you.
6. Do I need to reconcile differences with a brother or sister in the Lord?
Read: Matthew 5:23-24
ACTION: Not only is your relationship with God a major factor in your
giving but also your relationship with other members of the Body of Christ. As
long as there is a breach in your relationship with your brother or sister, you are
unfit to approach God with your offerings and they are unacceptable. Jesus
taught that if your brother or sister has something against you and you may have
done something in word or deed that has hurt someone else, you are to go to
them first and be reconciled. You must ask their forgiveness and then make
restitution, where possible.
Once you are reconciled in your relationship, then you are welcome to
come before God and offer your gifts to Him and He will accept them.
Is there a brother or sister who has something against you and you need to
restore your relationship? Go to them and first be restored. Then come before
God and present your offering, knowing that He will accept it and release His
blessings into your life.
7. Have I allowed a spirit of covetousness to take root in my heart?
Read: Luke 12:15-21
ACTION: Jesus taught that we must guard our hearts and refuse to allow a
spirit of covetousness to take root in our lives. Ask God to search your heart and
reveal to you if a spirit of covetousness has taken root in your life.
 Do you lay up treasures for yourself? Is your major concern your own
satisfaction and future provision? Do you use the finances that God gives you
over and above your own needs to give to the work of God or use it to buy more
of the world's possessions? Do you continually long for more of the world's
riches?
Allow God to cleanse and purge you of any sign of covetousness.
Recognize the spirit of covetousness and guard your heart diligently against it.
The moment you recognize it, take authority over it and bind it in Jesus' Name!
8. Do I give offerings that are acceptable to God or do I give blemished
offerings?
Read: Leviticus 1:1-4 Malachi 1:6-14
ACTION: The offerings that God accepts are those:
1. That are the VERY BEST OF ALL WE HAVE
2. That are given according to His will and what he revealed in His Word
3. That are given from a heart of love, as an act of worship
4. That are given to glorify God
5. That are given freely and willingly
6. That are given with clean hands and a pure heart
Consider the offerings you give to God. It may be that you do not see a
manifestation of God's blessings in your finances because your offerings are
unacceptable to God. When we fail to give the very best of all that we have...our
time, talents and finances...we are guilty of giving God blemished offerings.
If you give to God haphazardly...with little or no consideration to the
quality of your offerings, the consistency of your giving, or your motive for
giving...this is the time to rededicate your finances to God.
9. Do I give my tithes and offerings on unholy altars?
Read: Exodus 29:35-37 I Kings 13:1-6 Matthew 23:17-20
ACTION: The altars at which we worship today are personal altars and
corporate altars of the church or ministry where we worship God and give our
tithes and offerings. If either our personal altar or the corporate altar of the
church or ministry is unholy it will stop the flow of God's blessings in our lives.
Is it possible that you are in financial bondage because you give to God on
unholy altars? Could it be that the reason you do not reap God's promised
blessings is that you live under a "closed heaven?"
Take personal inventory of where you give your tithes and offerings. Is the
major motivation to minister to the needs of the people and fulfill God's will or
to increase membership and build the mailing list? Has a spirit of manipulation
taken root? Is there an unwillingness to submit to the correction of the Holy
Spirit? Ask yourself, "Do I give according to what God has revealed in His
Word?"
Do I listen to God concerning the amount of my offering and the
distribution of my tithes?
Take time to seek God's will and direction. Ask Him to reveal if you are
giving your offerings on unholy altars. If you have built an unholy altar, tear it
down. Then rededicate your tithes, offerings and special gifts to God and give
them into His storehouse where you know that God's will and work is done
according to His direction and where there is 100 percent obedience to His
Word!
10. Do I have any unpaid vows and pledges that I need to fulfill?
Read: Ecclesiastes 5:4-5 Judges 11:30-31 Acts 5:1-11
ACTION: Vows are made to God, not man. They are voluntary. God does
not require us to make vows or pledges. However, when an individual makes a
vow, he binds himself to do whatever he promised. If he is slack in paying his
vows or if he fails to pay them, it is sin and he is cut off from the flow of God's
blessings.
Today, our churches are full of Christians who live in financial bondage
because they made pledges to God which they have not paid. Instead of reaping
God's blessings, they live under a "closed heaven." As long as their pledges
remain unfilled, it is considered sin in God's eyes.
Could it be that you live under a "closed heaven" because you made
pledges and failed to pay them? If you have any unpaid pledges, repent and ask
God to forgive you. Do whatever it takes to get caught up on all your pledges or
vows. As you take this step of faith in obeying God, you will begin to see the
flow of God's blessings pouring into your life! "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 heaven, and pour
you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it." (Malachi
3:10)
Is it possible that many of God's people are robbing Him?
The key to God opening the floodgates of Heaven and releasing His
blessing into your life is tied to giving your tithes and offerings.
Your offerings determine the measure that God will use to flow His
blessing to you.
In chapter ten are answers to some of the major questions Christians ask
regarding tithing.
Did you know that the practice of tithing did not begin with the giving of
the Law?
Under the New Covenant, are Christians still required to give one-tenth of
their income as tithes?
Jesus teaching established a new level of giving that is no longer limited to
a set formula or dictated by duty. As we give out tithes and offerings, we must
give according to the pattern Christ set of unlimited, liberal giving!
Who are the modern-day Levites?
What is God's "Storehouse?" Where should we give our tithes?
I share the answers to these questions and give more of the revelation God
has given me concerning tithes that will enable you to rejoice in giving your
tithes and offerings and live under an "open heaven" where God's blessings are
flooding into you life.

CHAPTER 10
TITHING-ANSWERS TO MAJOR
QUESTIONS
"Bring 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."
Malachi 3:10, NIV
QUESTION: Is tithing required under the New Covenant?
ANSWER: One of the major questions many Christians have concerning
tithes is whether or not tithing is still required under the New Covenant. Many
think that tithing was instituted under the Old Covenant...under the Law...and
since we now live under the New Covenant, Christians are no longer required to
give their tithes... a tenth of their income...to God.
To answer this question, we must determine when the practice of tithing
was first instituted. Tithing is not a man-made ordinance or tradition. It is not a
legalistic form or ritual required by the Law. It is an outward expression of the
covenant relationship we have with God and it is God's method of pouring out
His blessings upon us.
Tithing did not begin with the giving of the Law. God set tithing into order
before the Law was given. The practice of giving one-tenth of the produce of the
land and of the spoils of war to priests and kings was an ancient and deeply-
rooted custom in existence for more than 400 years, long before the time of
Moses and the giving of the Law.
Abram gave tithes of the spoils of war that he won over the kings of Sodom
and Gomorrah. He recognized Melchizedek as being God's representative and
gave him his tithe. "But this person who has not their Levitical ancestry received
tithes from Abraham [himself] and blessed him who possessed the promises [of
God]" (Hebrews 7:6, TAB) Jacob made a vow to God that he would give tithes
of all that He gave him. (Genesis 28:22)
Later, as part of His covenant with Israel, God required the children of
Israel to give the tithe... a tenth...of all they possessed. God considered the tithe
as belonging to Him. When they gave their tithes in obedience to Him, the
children of Israel were only giving what already belonged to Him. "And all the
tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land, or of the fruit of the tree, is the
Lord's: it is holy unto the Lord. " (Leviticus 2730)
When Jesus established the New Covenant, He did not abolish the practice
of tithing. Jesus said, "Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the
prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill." (Matthew 5:17) He confirmed
that we must not neglect giving our tithes. He told the Pharisees, "Woe unto you,
scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and
cummin, an have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and
faith: these ought ye to have done and not to leave the other undone." (Matthew
23:23) He did not reprove nor condemn them for their strict adherence to tithing
but for their neglect of the more important matters of the Law...justice, mercy
and faithfulness. Jesus said, "...You should have practiced the latter, without
neglecting the former" (Matthew 23:23, NIV)
Jesus' teaching established a new level of giving which extends beyond the
tithe. He taught through His words and actions that our giving must become our
lifestyle. He is our pattern for giving. With the ultimate price He paid, we must
also be willing to give, not only 10 percent but 100 percent of all that we are and
all that we have!
We must not limit our giving to our tithe. We must be willing to give 100
percent of ourselves...our time...our abilities...our finances in fulfilling the will
of God upon the earth.
Tithing is still part of our covenant of giving but God desires to take us
beyond our current level of giving. Under the New Covenant, our giving to God
is no longer limited to a set formula or dictated by duty. When we give our tithes
and offerings to Him, we must give according to the pattern Christ set of
UNLIMITED, LIBERAL GIVING!
We are not bound by a legalistic approach but give our tithe and offering
according to the direction of the Holy Spirit. We give it not out of duty but from
our covenant relationship with God. As we do this, God will pour His blessing
into our lives in such abundance that, not only will our needs be met but the
work of God throughout the world will continue to flourish and His end-time
plan will be accomplished.
QUESTION: What is the purpose of our tithes?
ANSWER: God's purpose for the tithes is very clear. God spoke through
Malachi, "Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in
mine house..." (Malachi 3:10) What does this mean?
 God planned for there to be a divine sufficiency in the work of the Lord.
His purpose for the tithe was to support the Levites who devoted themselves
solely to their responsibility in the service of the Tabernacle.
When the children of Israel took possession of the promised land, God did
not give any of the land to the Levites for their inheritance. God gave them the
tithes of the children of Israel as their inheritance. God said, "And, behold, I have
given the children of Levi all the tenth in Israel for an inheritance, for their
service which they serve, even the service of the tabernacle of the congregation"
(Numbers 18:21)
The tithes of the children of Israel were distributed among the Levites and
their families for their necessary food and provision so they would not be
encumbered or concerned with the cares of providing for themselves or
accumulating houses and lands. The tithes of the children of Israel were their
only means of support.
From the tithes they received from the children of Israel, they were
required to give a tithe of all they received from God as a heave offering to the
Lord. God instructed the Levites through Moses, "...When ye take of the children
of Israel the tithes which I have given you from them for your inheritance, then
ye shall offer up an heave offering of it for the Lord, even a tenth part of the
tithe." (Number 18:26) This heave offering was to be the very best of all they
received. (Numbers 18:29)
After they presented the very best portions to God and gave it to Aaron, the
High priest, the remaining portion belonged to them, their families and all their
households. God told Moses to tell the Levites, "And ye shall eat it in every
place, ye and your households: for it is your reward for your service in the
tabernacle of the congregation" (Numbers 18:31)
Who are the modern-day Levites?
Ministers within the five-fold ministry who give themselves solely to the
work of the ministry, are modern-day Levites. God placed apostles, prophets,
evangelists, pastors and teachers within the Body of Christ and gave them the
responsibility of building up and bringing the Body of Christ to full maturity.
(Ephesians 4:11-14)
Today, God intends that the ministers within the five-fold ministry be
supported and undergirded by the members of the Body of Christ through the
giving of their tithes and special offerings.
Consistently throughout the Scripture, God's plan was that the Temple or
meeting place was built and maintained by offerings and the Levites were
supported through tithes. The atonement offering of one-half shekel for all
males, 20 years of age and older, was used for the upkeep of the Tabernacle.
Freewill offerings were used for the building of the Tabernacle in the
wilderness, the Temple in Jerusalem, and later for the Temple's restoration.
Our tithes today should be given to support the apostles, prophets,
evangelists, pastors and teachers whom God placed within the Body of Christ,
and the freewill offerings should be used for the upkeep of our church buildings
and the work of God in the nations of the world.
God planned that there be no lack in the House of God! If every member of
the Body of Christ were faithful in giving their tithes and offerings, there would
be more than enough to fulfill the work of God around the world. We would
have the necessary finances now to evangelize the entire world and bring in the
final end-time harvest before Christ's return.
QUESTION: What is God's "storehouse?" Where should we give our
tithes?
ANSWER: God directed the children of Israel to bring their tithes to the
place where He would establish His name. Moses told the people,
"But unto the place which the Lord your God shall choose out of all your
tribes to put his name there, even unto his habitation shall ye seek, and thither
thou shalt come: And thither ye shall bring your burnt offerings, and your
sacrifices, and your tithes, and heave offerings of your hand, and your vows, and
your freewill offerings, and the firstlings of your herds and of your flocks."
Deuteronomy 12:5-6
The children of Israel were not allowed to eat their tithe wherever they
chose. They were required to eat it, along with their household and the Levites,
at the place God directed in the House of the Lord. (Deuteronomy 6:17-19)
As they brought their tithes and offerings, God wanted them to rejoice
before Him in His sacred presence over the abundance that He had poured into
their lives.
God said, "Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be
meat in mine house..." (Malachi 3:10) The storehouse was comprised of special
storerooms or treasuries which had been built in the House of God where they
stored the tithes that the children of Israel brought to present to God. Every year,
they brought their tithes, along with their firstfruits and offerings to the House of
God. Out of this storehouse, the tithes were given to the Levites.
The teaching that is prevalent today within the Body of Christ is that the
local church is the "storehouse" and that members are to limit giving of their
tithes to their local church. In reality, the local church is only a part of God's
"storehouse." The purpose of the tithes is to support the five-fold
ministry...apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers who have given
themselves totally to the ministry of building the Body of Christ around the
world.
God's "storehouse" today is not just a single church, nor a particular
denomination, but the overall work of God throughout the world. The storehouse
is the total work of the Kingdom. God never intended the tithes to stay within a
local body of believers so that they could consume it only for the needs of the
local congregation. There is not one Scripture where God ever gave the tithes to
the local synagogue. God does not intend local churches to get "fat" from their
tithes but that the church sow part of it into the work of God in other areas of
ministry.
God held the individual responsible for the distribution of the tithes. When
they had obeyed God fully regarding the tithes THEN they were able to ask
God's blessings to be released upon them. Moses instructed the children of
Israel:
"When you have finished setting aside a tenth of all your produce in the
third year, the year of the tithe, you shall give it to the Levite, the alien, the
fatherless and the widow, so that they may eat in your towns and be satisfied.
Then say to the Lord your God: "I have removed from my house the sacred
portion and have given it to the Levite, the alien, the fatherless and the widow,
according to all you commanded. L have not turned aside from your commands
nor have I forgotten any of them. I have not eaten any of the sacred portion
while I was in mourning, nor have I removed any of it while I was unclean, nor
have I offered any of it to the dead. I have obeyed the Lord my God; I have done
everything you commanded me. Look down from heaven, your holy dwelling
place, and bless your people Israel and the land you have given us as you
promised on oath to our forefathers, a land flowing with mild and honey."
Deuteronomy 26:12-15, NIV
God expects you to pray and seek His direction regarding where He wants
you to give your tithes. Once you receive His direction and so as He directs you
by His Spirit, you can clearly say to God, "I have obeyed your voice. I gave what
you asked me to give where you asked me to give." Then, you can look up to
heaven and ask God to RELEASE HIS SUPERNATURAL INCREASE! After
you have obeyed Him,THEN you can call for the blessing God promised as a
result of your being obedient in giving you tithe and offerings.
 When you act in obedience to God, it sets in motion a chain of events
which causes God's promises to happen!
The bottom line is: you must be led and directed by God's Spirit as you
give your tithes into His "storehouse" to support the five-fold ministry He
established. "God's storehouse" includes all ministries where the Word of God is
preached in a demonstration of power, souls are continually being won into the
Kingdom of God and people are healed and delivered by the power of God!
QUESTION: Do we give our tithes on our gross or net income?
ANSWER: To answer this question, we must first have a breakthrough in
our understanding regarding the type of giving God expects us to practice today!
During Jesus' ministry, He demonstrated and taught a new level of
UNLIMITED LIBERAL giving which far exceeds the tithes. The tenth of our
income...of all that God gives us...already belongs to Him. Under the New
Covenant, we must not be limited to giving just our tithe. We must follow the
example Christ set for our giving.
All that we are and all that we possess belongs to God. All our finances
should be dedicated and consecrated to Him and we must be willing to be led
and directed by His Spirit in our giving. What we give is no longer dictated by a
legalistic approach or formula but by the direction of the Holy Spirit.
The children of Israel were directed to give tithes OF ALL THEY
POSSESSED...all their crops, all the fruit of their trees all their livestock!
Today, God expects us to give tithes of ALL He has given us. I believe this
involves giving a tenth off the top of all our income!
When God's people receive a fresh revelation concerning their finances and
the UNLIMITED, LIBERAL GIVING God wants us to practice, they will no
longer be concerned with how much they are required to give but will give freely
and liberally as a result of their relationship with Almighty God as their Source
of Total Supply!
QUESTION: Can we give something besides money for our tithes?
ANSWER: There are many Christians who think by giving their time and
devoting their talents to the work of God they have given their tithes. With the
establishment of the New Covenant, God expects us to give 100 percent of all
that we are and all that we have! The apostle Paul told the Romans, "I beseech
you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a
living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service."
(Romans 12:1)
Giving 100 percent of ourselves...our time...our abilities...our finances to
God is our REASONABLE SERVICE! Giving your time is not a substitute for
giving the tenth of your income and does not negate your responsibility for
giving your tithes.
QUESTION: When we fail to give our tithes and offerings to God, is it sin?
ANSWER: God considers the tithe... a tenth of all that he gave us...as
belonging to Him. Moses told the children of Israel, "And all the tithe of the
land, whether of the seed of the land, or of the fruit of the tree, is the Lord's it is
holy unto the Lord. " (Leviticus 27-30)
When we give our tithes, we actually give the Lord's tithe. It belongs to
Him and we are only giving what is His.
When we withhold or fail to give God tithes, we are ROBBING Him! God
asked the children of Israel, "Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me. But
ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee? In tithes and offerings. Ye are cursed with
a curse: for ye have robbed me, even this whole nation." (Malachi 3:8-9)
Now, let me ask you a question. Is it a sin to steal something that does not
belong to you? Yes! But what about stealing from God what rightfully belongs
to Him? Yes, it is sin, and when we fail to give our tithes, we are disobedient to
Him. God said, "Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse..." (Malachi 3:10)
God's Word teaches us, "Honour the Lord with thy substance, and with the
firstfruits of all thine increase: So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy
presses shall burst out with new wine." (Proverbs 3:9-10)
Before the majority of Christians filling our churches today experience a
financial breakthrough wherein they receive God's promised blessings, they must
repent for withholding their tithes! Many live in financial bondage because they
have not been faithful and obedient in giving God their tithes. God is saying to
the Church, as He said to the children of Israel, "...Return unto me, and I will
return unto you, saith the LORD of hosts..." (Malachi 3:7)
If every born-again child of God was faithful in giving his or her tithes
according to God's plan that he revealed to us through the Word, there would be
no lack! If every Spirit-filled, on-fire Christian gave the way God intended us to
give, we would have an abundance to fulfill His work of bringing in a harvest of
souls in this end-time hour!
If you have been withholding your tithes and offerings, repent and ask
God's forgiveness. Then, regardless of the financial circumstances you face, start
giving God your tithes and offerings. As you take this step of faith, believe God
to break the bondage of debt from you life, open the windows of heaven and
pour out His supernatural increase until there is not enough room for you to
receive it!
The apostle Paul said, "Now this I say, he who sows sparingly shall also
reap sparingly; and he who sows bountifully shall also reap bountifully. Let
each one do just as he has purposed in his heart; not grudgingly or under
compulsion; for God loves a cheerful giver. And God is able to make all grace
abound to you, that always having all sufficiency in everything, you may have an
abundance for every good deed;" (II Corinthians 9:6-8, NAS).
God's Word is clear! As you faithfully give your tithes and offerings to
God, in accordance with His Word, you will have His DIVINE SUFFICIENCY!
The tithe opens the windows of heaven. Your offerings determine the
measure that God will use to flow His blessing to you through the open windows
of heaven!

A FINAL WORD
Currently, many nations of the world are reeling under economic crises. As
hundreds of thousands lose their jobs, oil prices soar and businesses are forced
into bankruptcy because of power shortages and the escalating cost of utilities,
people are fearful of the future and do not know what to do.
Perplexity...
Confusion...
Instability...
Fear abounds.
Regardless of how Wall Street and the stock markets around the world
continue to fluctuate up and down, God has clearly revealed in His Word that
there is an end-time financial shaking coming.
It will go beyond the natural.
Man will do everything possible to find solutions - to no avail.
Nothing will stop it because it will be God's end-time judgment upon the
world!
In this book, I have shared revelation truths that will enable you to be
strong and immovable regardless of the financial problems and crises you may
face. God wants you to enter a new dimension of His miracle provision whereby
you are continually drawing from His unlimited supply.
Do not place this book on a shelf where it will just gather dust and you will
forget what I have shared with you. Read it again and again. Ask God to speak to
you as you read it and begin to apply this revelation in your life.
Raise the level of your faith and begin to sow seed, giving as God directs
you and believe God's blessings will be released in every area of your life.
OPEN YOUR HEART
"...Believe in the Lord your God, so shall ye be established; believe his
prophets, so shall ye prosper."
II Chronicles 20:20
Friends, in this book I have attached a special financial breakthrough
envelope. Take it in your hands right now! Hold it! Look at it! It will do no good
to read the truths in this book and not act while the Word is fresh.
In this hour, God is releasing an end-time financial anointing. To receive it,
you must sow for it. In other words, believe it and take a step of faith to receive
it.


Covenant with God for your end time financial covering. God said "Do not harm
the oil and the wine." (Revelation 6:6 AMP) Look at the challenge on the
envelope.
"And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a
witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come."
Matthew 24:14
Here is what the Holy Spirit is asking me to ask you:
1. Place a gift of finances in the special enclosed envelope to literally
help bring Jesus back. (Matthew 24:14) Sow in this land - this good ministry.
This is part of the key to this end-time financial breakthrough. Where do you
give your money? The land you sow it in will determine the extent that you
receive back from God.
2. Send it today! Do not procrastinate! Do not delay! The faster you put
your faith to work - the faster you will begin to receive your end-time financial
anointing.
Remember, it is the anointing that breaks every yoke. "And it shall come to
pass in that day, that his burden shall be taken away from off thy shoulder, and
his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the
anointing." (Isaiah 10:27)
As you sow to bring Jesus back, you will receive an end-time financial
anointing that will break every financial bondage and hindrance you have.
 "BELOVED, I WISH ABOVE ALL THINGS THAT THOU MAYEST
PROSPER AND BE IN HEALTH, EVEN AS THY SOUL PROSPERETH."
