Can I give my tithe to the poor?

Is it really wrong if I decide to give my tithes straight to the poor? Because it looks like it's them that need the money most!

 

 

 

ANSWER:

Before I answer your question, let me just ask you this; When you came into this world from your mothers womb, do you think that your mother conceived you from nothing or did she need a man, the one you call your father, to be able to conceive you in her womb?

Your tithe was not meant to go to the poor, though when you tithe the poor also become part of your good deed of tithing.

The good example to use here is the government, when people pay tax in most of the well organized and developed nations, the tax you pay helps the government to take care of the needs of the government,

and also from this tax money, a certain percentage is take off by the government, so that it may help the less fortunate and the poor people in that nation, by providing them with a system called welfare, that takes care of the poor through housing them and helping them financially, until they are able to support themselves.

Now, the same thing applies to the principle of tithing.

When God anoints people that are supposed to be your spiritual parents or leaders, part of their vision is to take care of the poor, and through the anointing upon their ministry God reveals to them which kind of poor people that needs that spiritual help and financial aid,

so that the giving to the poor is not only the feeding of their physical needs or lusts, but it also has a spiritual purpose which is very important, and that's the redemption of their souls from an evil lifestyle.

When you work and pay tax, this also gives you a legal right as a citizen in that nation, but if you work and refuse to pay tax, you become a thief and a law breaker, and according to the law, you belong behind bars.

So it is with this principle of tithing, when you tithe, your tithe being your identity, also your tithe being your strength, your energy, your ideas, your honour and support towards God's kingdom (God's vision, God's will and God's spiritual parenthood) for your life.

So your tithe makes you a citizen with legal rights into God's vision. Hebrews 7:1-2 says that Abraham gave the tithe of all to Melchezidek, prince of peace, and in return he received a blessing (empowered to prosper).

Notice! The scripture did not say that he gave the tithe to the poor.

Hebrews 7:6 -7 says...here mortal men (spiritual leaders, spiritual parents that pray for you, who watch over you and bless your soul) receive the tithe, but there He receives them, of whom it's witnessed  that He lives.

Did you know that when you give your tithe into the right place that God wants you to put it into, you also declare by your action of tithing that God lives (people will observe your life and come to this conclusion that your God lives).

Your tithe is your faith and honour that reveals to God, that you accept and believe the words that are spoken to you about God from your spiritual parents, to be nothing but the truth.

The spiritual mistake people make is that, most of the people give their tithe straight to the poor, and not knowing that what made those people poor will also eventually come upon them and make them victims of poverty.

What you need my friend is to find spiritual parents, who will spiritually give birth to the vision God has given you, and there you give your tithe, so that your tithe becomes your spiritual connection to your heavenly inheritance,

and if there is some poor people that you want to give into, let that money come from your finances after you have taken off your tithes. 

God bless
