When you
obey God in first fruit it is not like giving offering though it is a form of
offering. You give offering but you pay tithes and first fruit because they are
not your own. They are like tax. When you obey in tax you are paying what you
owe the government, it is not a donation. When a man obeys God and pays his
first fruit, he activates certain blessings to be released over his life. As he
comes before the man of God he is acknowledging that it is the favour of God
that made the job or business possible. When the pastor brings it before the
Lord and prays there is another blessing that follows the man. It entitles the
man to be eligible for other favours. Romans 11:16 makes us to see that
obedience to God on the first fruit will secure the rest or other part of the
blessing that follows. And remember that God is to get the first and not even the
second. If you put him first, then all others will be under His divine
covering. It may be tough the first time you try this but soon you will come to
see the benefit and awesome blessings that goes with it and then you won’t have
to fear or worry. There are blessings you cannot walk into until you walk in
total obedience to God. For some years now we have been beneficiaries of the
uncommon blessing that comes from obeying God in first fruit. If you are
disciplined and you allow God to lead you to plan to obey in the release of
your first fruit you will begin to see the uncommon blessing that goes with it.
God has more in store for you than you can ever imagine. Go for it; go for God
and you will live to testify. Daily Devotional by Rev. Igho Y; the Glorious Fountain Ministries.
