I saw a barn full of golden grain, which represented the blessing of God. It was ready to be divided up amongst the people – God had a purpose to pour abundantly over believers’ lives. However the door was held shut with such force that no man’s strength alone could open it. I asked God what would release the door and He said, ‘Only the giving of tithes and giving of offerings by my people will release such a blessing’.
It is time to re-examine our tithes and offerings and make sure that we are giving joyfully and with generosity. God has promised to release a blessing over us when we do so.
Malachi 3:8-12
“Will a man rob God? Yet you rob me. “But you ask, ‘How do we rob you?’ “In tithes and offerings. You are under a curse—the whole nation of you—because you are robbing me. 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. I will prevent pests from devouring your crops, and the vines in your fields will not cast their fruit,” says the Lord Almighty. “Then all the nations will call you blessed, for yours will be a delightful land,” says the Lord Almighty.
