NEVER STAY WHERE GOD HAS NOT ASSIGNED YOU

You are geographically designed.

This means that your nationality, your race and sex and even where you were born were decided by God.

You are geographically assigned.

This means there is a place, a city, a location where God wants you.

There is where you will flourish and succeed.

There he was assigned to the widow at Zarephath.

Each instruction from God is linked to your assignment.

Your financial provision is waiting for you at the place God has assigned you.

ESCAPE THE CURSE

Tithe means "tenth."

The Bible indicates that 10 percent of your income belongs to God.

Then expect a harvest.

Millions live under a curse.

They have hoarded the tithes for themselves.

Whatever you do, obey God in your giving.

Escape the curse.

Malachi 3:8-10

"“Will a man rob God? Yet you are robbing Me! But you say, ‘How have we robbed You?’ In tithes and offerings. 9 You are cursed with a curse, for you are robbing Me, the whole nation of you! 10 Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, so that there may be food in My house, and test Me now in this,” says the Lord of hosts, “if I will not open for you the windows of heaven and pour out for you a blessing until it overflows."
