Forcing People to Give In the Church

I have seen people force people to give in today's church. Either people are told if they do not give an angry God will curse them or if the do give they will be blessed by a smiling happy and richer God.

Many a time the effects are comming from the preachers themselves and God is not in the picture.

We should not force people to give in the church. Rather we should ask and it will be given to us. We should make our expenditures clear to the people that they do not hesitate to give to the cause. If we are faithful God will make us more wealthier.

If you are a pastor, are you being faithful with God's money. If you are a manager are you using the organisation's money in a good fashion or we need an audit. Ask yourself?

For us to be trusted with much we need to be faithful with little.

Alters

I want to say that it is a lie that you can be rich without sowing into the spirit world as I said earlier that money is spiritual. All rich people have sown money of something of value to them to either God or the Devil. Do not be fooled.

People who do not worship God sow to the Devil in order to get the money or to secure it. This is the same in the Kingdom of God where Jesus says give and it shall be given back to you. In the Kingdom of the Devil people sacrifice children and relatives, but in God's kingdom he does not ask for that. God wants your time, money and other resources like your car to transport other Christians to church. Your house will do to host church or a cell group. The Kingdom of God is good and loving.

Create an alter for yourself and see what God will do. Give to God and you will unlock riches and honor.

Why the Zimbabwe Dollar Crumbled

There are many theories that are put on the table as to the reason why the Zimbabwe Dollar (Zim Dollar) went down. Others say there is no democracy in Zimbabwe while others say that there was a wrong Governor, others say it was because of the lack of production and others say it was sanctions.

I want to let you know that money is spiritual. That is why suddenly hear there is a recession after a long period of good times. Money is spiritual. Poverty is Spiritual. Wealth is Spiritual.

There is an idol that is on the Zimbabwe Dollar. That same Idol is on the flag and everywhere representing Zimbabwe. In order to be restored our nation should cut the cord that connects us to the Zimbabwe Bird Demon. Our money should have that symbol removed. That is the same with our nation.

If this is done the spiritual realm will change and we can connect to God.

Credit not against God

I have heard that people feel blessed when they are not in debt and I have experienced such a life.

This experience is due to the fact that I live in Zimbabwe where credit cards do not exist and where it is difficult to borrow more than USD$ 10 000.

The word of God says that if you are blessed by God you will lend to all nations and borrow from none. This is blessing for real.

Nevertheless the word of God does not say that you are a sinner if you borrow money. It is silent though it says the borrower is the servant to the lender.

I know that they are ways to get yourself richer if you use credit wisely. Be advised, do not borrow to pay school fees, get your child to the right school, a school you can afford. Do not borrow to buy food, work for the food you eat, a lazy man must not eat. Do not borrow to buy clothes, a lazy man will wear tattered clothes, work for your clothes or you will be very poor. Wisdom is with a man who borrows to buy a house and puts tenants who will service that loan. You will be on your way to real wealth and prosperity. You can do the same with buying a good business and with buying a commuter bus and with buying an apartment building. The list is endless.

I have asked a number of people on how Africa can develop to be like the EU or the US not in terms of having a single nation but in terms of infrastructure and wealth.

The answers have been very interesting. I have had poor answers and good answers. That has sharpened my belief that God is the answer to our poverty. He is the one who gives us the power to make wealth.

On the poor answers one man said to me, we need democracy for Africa to develop. I asked him, if the majority are always right. He said they are, if they become selfless. My answer was Africans are selfish then democracy is the answer for a selfless well feed society like the US and the EU who may think they are too full to need God. If an Election is done between God and satan, the latter would win because its a perverse generation. Watch who is in power in this democratic age. Judge for yourselves.

On the good answers one said as long as Africa have Aid and Aids programs running it will always be poorer. Look at the best brains distributing condoms, maize meal and beans. Which African can say no to US$2 000 000 to do an aid project. These people have the brains to manufacture cars, computers and cellphones. To add to this point I thought the president of Malawi is very educated for his Job, the same is the Deputy Prime Minister of Zimbabwe. Why do they not concentrate on their calling and make a difference in Africa.

The other person said that development starts in the family unit. How many single mothers do you know in Africa? They are plenty. It means their families are not guaranteed an education, food, shelter and discipline. The poverty will not end until this ungodly culture is done with. Remember the word culture is made up of Cult and Ure, making it tough to have a godly CULTure.

The Accounting Business

I grew and had employees working for me. This made it a business. I would raise capital for startups, business proposals, cashflows and keep clients books of accounts.

The little boys we hired misbehaved at the clients office we were housed and they were kicked out. The client requested that no one but me do the books. I was left with no option but to layoff the kids.

I had a partner who we multiplied the business with due to the hyperinflation in Zimbabwe. We shared two clients each. I got the more demanding and difficult clients.

I lost a client due to asking for timely payments. I did internal audits for a clothes retail shop called BQ in the Rainbow Towers. The other client paid less than $1 a month in Zim Dollars but I kept them but it has gave me good fruit they now give me good money. Another new client paid in fruit Juices.

With time I reconciled with the Internet Cafe in the Rainbow Towers who had sacked me for demanding timely payment. As I write last month I was fired a second time because the manager and I did not have some good chemistry. We have since reconciled. I have lost both the clothes retail and the juice retailer due to low business and change in the economy.

I am left with two clients and keep thinking. That led me to the vehicle sales business.

The Farm Produce Business

This was the first business that I established after employ. It envolved farm produce retail.

I had no capital at all, I was idea rich. A friend financed the project.

We bought a VW Golf for purchases and deliveries. It cost $430.

We registered the company and formalised everything.

I saw all things work together for the good for those that love God when the financing partner pulled out. I was stuck and and no business to run.

When a door is closed several are opened another business was birthed.
