People Thought I Was CRAZY!

I was reading what Adina said about tithing:

This time I made a commitment to not stop tithing again! 🎀 πŸ“–

I remembered back when I went to church as a young girl, I cannot remember ever hearing a sermon on tithing. Of course, I knew about giving, but not giving out of lack, only out of abundance.

When I came to this ministry, I started tithing, not because I really believed it, but because I was desperate for my marriage to be saved, but even with the wrong heart, my Husband still knew me better than I ever could and He had me persist in tithing, even though I could some days not buy milk and bread for my children and I did not know where our next meal would come from.

My financial situation did not change overnight and it made me realize that tithing does not have to do with just finances, I started having a faith I could not explain, this peace that I knew He would provide for me.

And He did, more than I could ever dream or imagine. I am a few months away from being debt-free and although we still have a mortgage on our house, I don’t see it as my debt, because I don’t pay for the mortgage.

He is amazing in ALL He does and just recently He did something for me again because I gave not out of abundance, but out of lack. I did not have to give, but He said give and I did and again, for a few days, I did not know where the next meal would come from and He provided again, more than I could ever imagine.

Ladies, I am telling you, this is the one principle that is not spoken about ENOUGH.

“Give, and you will receive. Your gift will return to you in fullβ€”pressed down, shaken together to make room for more, running over, and poured into your lap. The amount you give will determine the amount you get back.”

  1. Beautiful testimony Yvonne and you’re entirely right this is the principle that is never talked about enough and why at the end of each month, we begin the conversation again to help those with questions, and concerns and deep fears – – everything that we had to overcome in order for us to be debt-free or close to debt-free, living a fully abundant life. It’s no wonder that the enemy uses lies and fears in order to prevent his brides from living this principle.
    Almost everyone, I know and meet are able to see the financial freedom that I have all due to ONE single principle – – tithing and giving offerings.
    https://restoreministriesinternational.com/donations/On this page has the foundational principles, but I think it’s the testimonies that really help us over come the opposition of the devour, who would lose control over your life, because we do know how much money matters in the lives of all of us.

    If you have a testimony, please share it. Let’s hope we can help one bride at a time get over this gigantic chasmβ€”building a bridge across to the freedom depicted in the picture of the surrender widget just below.

  2. Yup so true Yvonne l relate with everything you shared when at 1st you tithe it’s just so difficult and a lot of the time that money you paying your tithes with is what you would use to pay a bill or to buy food so it becomes really scary…. this was definitely the case for me as a single parent with a small child at the beginning of my journey so tithing is definitely a heart and a faith thing… and yes things didn’t just come right miraculously but over time we start seeing His provision and things slowly start coming right and not just in finances… but in healing in so many areas of our lives.. a lot of the time l felt there were things that was done to me that was so unfair and my heart hurt but even that HE took care of slowly over time and l would look back snd marvel and couldnt explain just how He took care of it, so many things bit He just did!!

  3. Thank you, Yvonne for sharing your heartfelt testimony! I am still paying my car instalment monthly, and I am plus minus a year away from paying it in full, and there was a time I thought I would lose my car because I couldn’t pay it, BUT He was faithful because I tithed faithfully, and always provided and every month I was able to pay the instalment.

    And I relate to what you shared about giving out of lack, in the beginning I alsotithed from the little I had, sometimes not knowing where money for milk would come from, but I persisted and He was faithful to always provide. And it also took time, but gradually things got better and better.

  4. Dear Yvonne, I will never forget when I would sai what are you going to do if something was.not paid, you would say God will provide and then I would say but what you going to do but you kept say God will provide and I love how God did come through for you, I always said I love your faith xxx

  5. I was one of those who was afraid to tithe because I could not understand completely the principle and also of because all the tithing abuses that have occurred worldwide that we hear in the news. I was in deep financial crisis and it was so hard to tithe knowing that I could not afford to eat nor to pay all my huge mountain of debts, but even if I was not convinced, I knew obedience was important for God (at that moment, I also could not understand that intimacy with Him), because I was learning about the person He wanted me to become.
    I am not debt-free yet in fact a new debt that was hidden came to light after 7 years, but I know that day is soon to come. He is faithful, He has never stopped providing and taking care of me. All this is because I continue following the principles of tithing, offering and giving as much as He leads me. And let me also share that the tithing principle is a protection for you health as well. I lost my social security insurance when I lost my job at the beginning of my journey and during all these years He has protected my health in amazing ways.
