Pastor David Ibiyeomie, the founder of Salvation Ministry, has warned Christians not to tamper with their tithes during the festival season since it ensures life protection.
During a sermon at his Church’s headquarters in GRA Phase 1, Port Harcourt, Ibiyeomie made the call.
Many Christians, according to the cleric, tamper with their tithes by spending on frivolities and then making excuses later.
“The first thing tithing does is to preserve your Life and not the money, tithing is what preserves you, let us find out who is the devourer from God’s Word – 1st Peter 5:8, The Devourer is the Devil, so the first thing tithing does is to stop Satan from attacking your life.
“This festive season and beyond please be careful not to tamper with your tithe. Many people this time do tamper with their tithe, they will say I want to buy headgear, I have to travel, I have to buy a shoe, I have to buy my suit, so you will see them cutting corners.
“They will go on to say that as I was going, the motor caught fire, my child is in the hospital, all manners of story, then they say: with all the prayers of protection.
The real question to ask yourself is that with all the money I stole from God.
“So, do not make God look like a magician please pay your tithe. Every money that comes to you, please pay your tithe, pay all,” he said.
