PAYMENT OF FIRSTFRUIT OFFERING: SECRET OF OVERWHELMING BLESSING TEXT: Proverbs 3:9-10; Romans 11:16, Leviticus 23:10. Proverbs 3:9 says Honor the Lord with thy substance, and with the FIRSTFRUITS of all thine increase: Verse 10 says So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine. Rom.11:16 says for if the FIRSTFRUITS be holy, the lump is also holy: and if the root be holy, so are the branches. Leviticus 23:10 says “When you come into the land which I give you and reap its harvest, then you shall bring a sheaf of the first fruits of your harvest to the priest,” Leviticus 23:10. It is to be set apart as holy unto God!


OVERWHELMING BLESSINGS OF GOD 1. Givers of FIRSTFRUIT OFFERING enjoy God’s comprehensive insurance. Jeremiah 2:3 says God issues automatic judgment on whoever or whatsoever attempts to devour givers of FIRSTFRUIT 2. Isaiah 61:7 , “Instead of your shame you will receive a double portion, and instead of disgrace you will rejoice in your inheritance. And so you will inherit a double portion in your land, and everlasting joy will be yours.” 3. Go d can be called upon to specially favor the giver of FIRSTFRUIT ( Nehemiah 13:31 ); 4. The Old Testament text: Proverbs 3:9-10 , state clearly that in addition to God honoring the giver of FIRSTFRUIT OFFERING, the giver also enjoys overflowing blessings from the Almighty God; 5. The Old Testament text further implies that the honor rendered unto God by the giver of FIRSTFRUITS automatically attracts greater dimension of honor from GOD (I Sam 2:30b). 6. FIRSTFRUITS are giving the first portion to GOD. Romans 11:16 says, “If the part of a dough offered as FIRSTFRUITS is HOLY, then the whole batch is HOLY; if the root is HOLY, so are the branches”. Giving the first portion of your finances to God will cause all of your finances for the rest of the year to be HOLY. FIRSTFRUITS causes God to treat your finances as HOLY giving you favor with GOD because your finances are connected to the FIRST FRUIT OFFERING.

God’s intention is that Man lives a life of true dominion, comfort and overwhelming blessings. However, realizing this divine desire depends on Man’s prompt, total and consistent obedience to God’s instructions, one of which is giving of FIRSTFRUIT OFFERING.

There is a financial system God has for His children.

Two special giving you must not play with as a Christian:
1. First fruit
2. Tithe
These two God said belongs to Him. And they came before the law.
You don't keep the first fruit to yourself because it's a hallowed thing that belongs to God. If you decide to keep it , you will ruin your life.

The firstfruit is God's plan for continuous stream of financial abundance and flow for His children.

Honour the Lord with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase: So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine. Proverbs 3:9‭-‬10 KJV

Giving is an act of faith!
Honouring God is the key to firstfruit giving and when you do it, God is bound to honour you.

For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister. Hebrews 6:10 KJV




THE SIGNIFICANCE OF FIRSTFRUIT OFFERING
God instructed Moses to expose the secret of
overwhelming blessings to His chosen Nation of Israel.
Moses obeyed God by stating the conditions precedent
to man enjoying God’s overwhelming blessings. In the
Books of Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy,
Moses stated the significance of FIRSTFRUIT OFFERING,
in not less than thirteen (13) occasions.
Exodus 23:19 stipulates strict obedience to giving of
FIRSTFRUIT OFFERING. He repeated this again in
Exodus 34:26 . To remove any ambiguity on the
significance of FIRSTFRUIT, God expressly instructed
Moses again in Leviticus 23:10 that the euphoria of
victory and celebration of wonderful accomplishment
must not be allowed to obliterate compliance with His
instruction on FIRSTFRUIT OFFERING.

You are a thief. If not, then please prove to me biblically the truthfulness of tithing and first fruit. I live in the Netherlands and all the black churches I have been to always ask of tithe and firstfruit. Funny thing is you will only see the poorest black folk there, almost no whites/non-blacks.

I have one time challenged a pastor by asking him to biblically support the truthfulness in tithing and all the members were looking at me like someone possessed by the devil. They have been irredeemably lost, the pastors know this and capitalize on it. This is the single reason I stopped going to black churches. Glad to see the resistance to tithing/firstfruit on this thread, only if it will affect the typical churchgoers.

That was a specific request for those whom God gave the land of Canaan in the old testament. Jesus never requested for any first fruit. I know you're a pastor and I'm probably spoiling business but take heart.

I swear, these pastors are worst than our politicians.


At least, we get to see more crumbs from politicians unlike pastors.

RCCG generates more money than Ogun state. But Ogun state has built far more roads, has by far many people on it's payroll...


Pastors are the major problem of this country. They serve as drainage to weatlh which could have been ploughed back for the development of this country.

Let's not talk about the manpower hours wasted in worship centres.

Imagine if all churches in this country were converted to industries, won't we be by far the greatest nation on earth

Commercialized religion is the greatest scam on earth.

Listen, young lady, if you don't want the wrath of God to descend on you in full measures, desist from spreading heresies.

The Bible was explicit about what the Gospel of Jesus Christ was. It is the Good News which has redeemed us from the bondage of the profitless Laws of Moses and reconciled us with our Father in Heaven. Why are you trying to return people into the bondage of the Law which Christ painstakingly liberated us from?

So Christ has truly set us free. Now make sure that you stay free, and don't get tied up again in slavery to the law. (Galatians 5:1)

The Gospel of Christ includes His death and His Ressurection. It is the Good News which has reconciled us with God. Anyone who preaches a contrary gospel is cursed:

Let God's curse fall on anyone, including us or even an angel from heaven, who preaches a different kind of Good News than the one we preached to you. (Galatians 1:8 )

My sister, be careful so you don't suffer God's wrath. There is only one Good News and it has nothing like first fruits or tithes.

To truly show that you love God and trust Him, you need to remember the needy ones among you and stay free from the pollution of this wicked and evil world:

Pure and genuine religion in the sight of God the Father means caring for orphans and widows in their distress and refusing to let the world corrupt you. (James 1:27)
