PHANEROO~DEVOTION 27th December 2015 VANTAGE POINT II Apostle Grace Lubega

[Philippians 4:17]; Not because I desire a gift: but I desire fruit that may abound to your account.

We as ministers owe God a certain accountability if we commit ourselves to minister to the lives of men.

If a pastor is poor and a rich man comes into his ministry, either that rich man will become poorer or will leave and go to another ministry because the pastor is poor. For instance a man of God may say that they collect only 200,000 shillings in the church and that is enough to cater for their daily expenses and therefore they may not be able to give their first fruit or give tithe.

So he refuses to give his first fruit and tithe because his mind is telling him he doesn't have enough money.
If a rich man should come into your congregation and sit there, even if he has the ability to help the ministry, either you will have to manipulate him by the funny talk I have heard from ministers, saying ‘get a seed of USD 700 for 7 days and you will see a miracle’ or if you don't manipulate him, he will just become meaner because you are dealing with Thessalonica (a young Christian).

So if the pastor doesn't do what he is supposed to do, then things start to happen around the ministry and the ministry is greatly affected. The rich man will be affected because the Bible says show me a diligent man, he will stand before kings and not before mean men. A diligent man will attract kings and not mean men.

When a man comes into your ministry when he is worth a million dollars, he ought to be able to increase. He cannot  stick around and realize that after 20 years he has reduced his money by 400,000$ without any increase. If the spirit of God carries away that man, understand, man of God, that it is not church hopping, you are not diligent.
