Redemptive Plan Of God In Tithing
the east of the Garden of Eden He [permanently] stationed the [f]
cherubim and the sword with the flashing blade which turned
round and round [in every direction] to protect and guard the
way (entrance, access) to the tree of life.
h) Non-tithers are open to attacks by the enemy
The Bible says in Amos 3:10-11 [nIV]
“They do not know how to do right,” declares the Lord, “who
hoard plunder and loot in their fortresses.” Therefore this is what
the Sovereign Lord says: “An enemy will overrun the land; he will
pull down your strongholds and plunder your fortresses.”
By not tithing, you allow the devil access to attack your property.
i) Non tithers attract the wrath of God
The Bible says in Ezekiel 22:29-31 (AMP)
29 The people of the land have practiced oppression and extortion
and have committed robbery; they have wronged the poor and
needy and they have oppressed the stranger without justice. 30 I
searched for a man among them who would build up the wall and
stand in the gap before Me for [the sake of] the land, that I would
not destroy it, but I found no one [not even one]. 31 Therefore I
have poured out My indignation on them; I have consumed them
with the fire of My wrath; I have repaid their way [by bringing
it] upon their own heads,” says the Lord God.
