Today’s adverts reveal a lot about the major pursuit of men.
From the lotto Nigeria advert where a shoemaker dreams of becoming a millionaire and chauffeur driven to the Skye Bank “I wish I could go far in life without stress”. The answer/solution to both questions is MONEY. Why not? “Money answereth all things” … Ecclesiastes 10:19. and “is a defense”. Ecclesiastes 7:12
But are we right in the unrelenting pursuit of money? Is money really the answer to life’s problems? Is it right to wake up every money and exert all that is in me in the pursuit of money? Just how many years of my active life will I spend LOOKING/WORKING for money? If the money problem is settled what will I rather do with my effort and time?
Is there a formula for acquiring wealth? I mean a tested and trusted one? Can I be rich WITHOUT STRESS? What does the Bible have to say? What is the Christian way?
Lots of questions. Ponder them.
Stay with us.

If You Have Been Faithful in Tithing, You’re A Wealthy Man!
Do you know that? I was was so much elated when I learned this secret. Too many blessings were listed in the Bible to those who remain givers to God and to humanity. The secret I’m about to reveal to you is not these Bible promises but what I learned from a book. When I compared it with the promises in the Bible, I jumped up. I was so much happy that day because God had finally answered my prayer – I mean He had fulfilled His promise: And I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places(Isaiah 45:3).
You see, when I finished school, it took me some time to get job. During these “waiting period” I was so much worried and was asking God why He had forgotten me who had given my life to serve Him. Now, it is one year since I started work which I got miraculously. And you know what? I have been worried once more – may be more than I did when I had nothing doing. What was my worry?
I am not paid huge amount of money. At the same time, I am not paid small amount of money. I receive more than some of my friends. Likewise, some of my friends earn more than I do. So you see, the bottomline is not how much do I make? But how much do I have? Or let’s put it another way: how much am I worth, right now. This had been my worry.
I have discovered that if nothing is done, everything I get each month would be engulfed in what we call “necessities.”
Now, do I tell you the secret I learnt? Pardon me, cos I want to tell you why I was worried.
The thing is that, before I got the job, I had promised God a lot of things (financial) which I would do for him apart from my usual tithe. Guess what? The moment I got the job I did fulfill my promises and did even more (Pardon me if I boast like man). However, it seemed like the more I give, the more my pocket get dries. My prayer of faith for a better-paid job had not come to reality (though God has granted it). Even if it comes today, the need in the church is too much and I fear it would engulf the entire paycheck. That was where my worries deepened.
But, thanks be to God today because He had given me a glimpse into His promise of showing me the secret places of wealth. I know this is just the beginning.
Before I tell you the secret (It’s not a secret, cos I found it in a popular book, but would be a dumbfounded secret for some special people like you) I want to know if you have been faithful in paying your tithe. If you have not been faithful, go back now to the drawing board.
I’m telling you this because, if you are not faithful in your tithing, you cannot be able to keep to this secret.
I will catch you another day. By that time, you must have made up your mind and be faithful in your tithe. I’m sorry, I’ll continue later. I’ve already taking too much space and I don’t want this post to be too cumbersome.
Step by step, we will take it.
God grace and be richly blessed.
