TITHING – LIFTS YOU TO A HIGHER LEVEL OF RECEIVING
“Let each one do just as he (she) has resolved in their heart, not grudgingly, or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.”
2 Corinthians 9:7

We take time today to thank those incredible souls that make a difference for everyone through their tithes and offerings to Positive Christianity.
If you have donated to this ministry in the past – we thank you. You are helping to make the world much more faith filled, and positive.
Positive Christianity is VERY different – we don’t ask you to join our church organization, we give freely to you, so you can make a difference in the church of your choosing.
It’s not about you joining us – it’s about US JOINING YOU. We serve over a million souls a day of EVERY faith in prayer and also offering inspiration, and upliftment.
I have said many times, that my life didn’t start to improve until I started to tithe. When I started to tithe everything changed for the better, and lasting, permanent, success came.
The above Bible verse in 2 Corinthians tells us that God loves a cheerful giver. God wants us to give to our source of spiritual food so that we might experience the true joy of giving, and sharing with those around us. The point of Paul’s message to the Corinthians is this: those who contribute generously, receive generously. Because God has graciously given us so much, we can give to others. Paul gives principles of giving to the Corinthians. He says, “Don’t give reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.”
When you give, you experience the true joy of knowing you’ve made a positive impact by directly helping God, and you acknowledge that there is something more important out there than money or material things. True, lasting, happiness comes through Christ-like living – in an unselfish, caring and loving manner.
When you make a decision to tithe, it is a decision to give directly to God. The decision to give should NOT be based on what your spiritual source has done for you, as significant as that may be; it is a deep desire in you to help God, and to give back to God but a small portion of what you have received every day of your life. Make no mistake; every tithe is a DIRECT GIFT OF GOD, not to an organization. Of course the organization will be benefited, and should be, if they are doing the work of God.
2 Corinthians 9:6-8 in our Bible states, “But this I say: He who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully. So let each one give as he purposes in his heart, not grudgingly or of necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver. And God is able to make all grace abound toward you, that you, always having all sufficiency in all things have an abundance for every good work.”
The ancients were masters at mixing farming metaphors into their own view of life. The Jews used similar agriculture imagery throughout the entire book of the Old Testament. In order for Paul to come up with his own illustration for the opening point of this passage, he used much of the well-known agricultural imagery familiar to the Jewish people: the more seed a person plants, the more crops they will reap at harvest time. Paul uses this principal and compares it to giving. Those who give liberally will reap a generous reward in God’s kingdom.
And why should we give liberally? Because God has been generous to us.
James 1:17 says: “Every generous act of giving, with every perfect gift, is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change.” God is the author of everything good, and God doesn’t change.
Many have made the decision to become a sustaining supporter with a reoccurring monthly gift. It as easy to set up. Even a gift of a few dollars, multiplying monthly, makes a huge difference in what we are able to do.
THANK YOU!

TITHING PRAYER
(To prepare you for tithing in the highest spiritual way, USE THIS EVERY TIME YOU TITHE)
I tithe and I prosper in everything I think, say and do.
I give to God and God gives unsparingly to me.
I give of the first fruits of my earnings, money, time, devotion, ability.
With undeviating devotion I give to God’s ministry, my church, which prospers and protects the world of humans.
This leaven of love–this tithe– is the tie that binds me to God’s good.
The Law of Reciprocity–Giving and Receiving–knows no lack or cessation.
This Law of Compensation works all the time for me and all humankind.
Giving my tithe to God, I unerringly connect myself with the source of Divine abundance itself. This is the spiritual secret of the increase and multiplication in all my ways.
The kingdom of expansion is within me.
The more I give the more I receive.
I am aware of my Divine obligation at all times.
I cheerfully give of the little sums, the big sums and of the scattered sums.
I give my tenth part to God, lovingly, joyously, faithfully!
This insures my security–my life, health, success, prosperity, and satisfaction.
My tithe goes to spiritual works and spiritual works alone, for this money is God’s.
Thus my income and outgo are forever active, sustained, rich, fruitful, by the Almighty grace of God.
I smile as I give. Gratefully, and faithfully, I put my love and gratitude in with my tithe to the Infinite One.
Richly, I experience the endless supply of God’s love and blessings.
I praise the Lord, my God, all the days of my life for God has given wondrously to me.
I consent, and am fully willing, I am ready to give unto God the first fruits of my substance at all times. I tithe and I prosper, for God has shown me the spiritual power to continuously succeed.
Thank You God for the privilege of helping You.
“Bring ye all the tithes (tenth) 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
