Chapter 9 “Opening the Windows of Heaven Over Me!” The Word of Their Testimonies

Milestone #1: Testimonies of Tithing

Opening the Windows of Heaven Over Me!

Hello beloved. I started this praise a long time ago, but I was not able to finish, so this morning on my computer, I prayed for my HH to hold my hand, to guide me to write what He wants me to share, because I was not able to. Then I looked at the beautiful view next to me, one day with a lot of fog covering the huge green area with a color that only He could have made, a mixture of different shades of green and the yellow of the flowering trees, amazing! I was filled with joy, because my Beloved gave me one day alone with Him and that is wonderful.

My sisters, what I want to share with you is my life lesson on tithing, giving faithfully to your Storehouse, and about the Lord’s faithfulness. Like many of you, at the beginning of my journey I was not aware of this principle, of course I had heard about it, but not in the way we learned here. I had many doubts in my mind, uncertainties, but the Lord dispelled them all.

Well, like many of you, I was raised in a Catholic home and I always saw my parents giving a few dollars in the offering basket, but I saw it as a contribution to the church, I did not really understand the meaning. I also made my offerings, but I did not tithe, so it was many years after I started giving my tithing too, but it had nothing to do with 10% of my income, so it was my contribution to the house of God and didn’t have the true effect that tithing is meant to have on our lives.

“My people are destroyed, because their knowledge is lacking.” Hosea 4: 6

It was only at the beginning of my journey that I began to know this principle a bit better, but it was not so immediately that I began to fulfill or rather to obey the Lord. I what I’d done before, I made regular donations, but I still did not return the 10% to my storehouse. Then slowly and by reading the Lesson “Opening the Windows of Heaven” on DAY 19, which is our first spiritual milestone, and the fear to get over it, I read it a few more times and gradually I was learning, but I still did not give my tithe to Lord and do so first, so I confirmed that HE was in first place in my life and heart. Dear brides, when we seek Him with all our heart, He shows us what is right, and today I do nothing short of returning to Him what is first, a full tenth, given first.

As I was still learning, but I still lacked giving to my true storehouse, the results I’d read from everyone didn’t happen to me. I was confused and since it was very early in my journey, I still attended church, and only gave an offering to RMI.

Then I understood the principle of leaving my church, I say it was not easy, but today I understand the importance of this principle that Erin teaches us. Also since I was being fed here, because like all of us, this was where I found the answers I needed to restore my life and what was even better, they taught me that the best answers should came directly from Him, my Beloved, as I sought Him. SG (seeking God) was the best thing that happened to me, because He does not always say what I want to hear, but He always says what is right and best for me, according to His purposes.

It was then that I started to tithe here to the RMI, but I faced several problems, as I did not have an international credit card and at the time we did not have a good option, or rather, we did not know this option. So I needed the help of friends to tithe and sometimes there was a problem and I could not tithe each time I was paid. Yet, as I continued to press into Him for help, not only did He help me tithe, but I found myself closer to Him than before!

I hope this encourages you not to give up on the first difficulty because I had also made several attempts, I even applied for a credit card only to be able to tithe, but these were not the Lord’s plans. It was only after I rested and I trusted that He would provide the way He showed to tithe, “You owe nothing to anyone but love for each other. . “(Romans 13: 8). Our beloved Heavenly Husband, He takes care of everything and opened a door for me to tithe and I trust He will help you too!

You know, I never meant to test You, my HH (Heavenly Husband), but everything you say in Your Word is true … YOU have filled my barns, I have not been lacking, my money is multiplying … Hallelujah!

“Bring all the tithes into the house of the treasure, that there may be food in my house, and then prove me, saith the Lord of hosts, if I will not open the windows of heaven and pour you out a blessing such as May the greatest wealth come to you. “Malachi 3:10

I can only praise Him because it has been wonderful to me to experience this part of my journey. The Lord has fulfilled what He promised in His Word that He would pour forth such blessings that we would not have enough room to gather it all and it’s so true! I pray that He will make me a woman who hurries to praise and thank Him for EVERYTHING. Whoever witnesses my journey knows that in the beginning I was not like that, how many, when we separate the financial issue become very different and choose to not remain faithful And, this dear friend, has the whole emotional issue that takes will drag you further down than you are now.

So now, I want to share some of the many blessings I have had during this time that He is leading me on this journey. As I mentioned before, my money has multiplied and I have been able to bless others around me and nothing has been missing … I could say that I do not know how, … but I know, it is in Malachi 3:10.

Beloved, let us give GLORY to God who always keeps His promise. Well, a simple thing that happened to me, a prayer answer, you know, sometimes I forget to put Him at all, I think certain things are too simple, but He’s always faithful … I helped my brother with making a payment and oh, hallelujah, He is faithful, the answer came fast and financial blessings came to me!

Even more a financial blessing, since the spiritual (tithing principle) influences our lives in many ways, months ago, I paid the rent and other expenses for the month and I saw that there was only a little money in my account, thank God I have no debt, but at the time I thought, He’s in control, He’s going to make it right for the month’s purchases. Girls, He’s tremendous, it happen when I began gathering some books for donation to our library and I found some money that I had lost over a year ago, inside one of the books! At the time I looked everywhere but gave up when I did not find it. I did not remember it anymore but once I tithed, He showed me and restored what was taken.

Then my niece came to give me back some money that I did not remember that she owed me, I even said, What is this for? How good it was to have learned the principle of tithing. There’s still more, one day I went to get a manicure, and put on a pair of shorts and guess what? I had the exact amount that I needed to pay her in my pocket. I laughed, because I even washed those shorts with the money inside of the pocket and didn’t know it was in there. It is so fun when He surprises us, and as a friend says, “He makes money from where we can not imagine.” He does not tire of surprising me!

I have also got gifts, clothes, even used, they are beautiful things. He presented me with an English course, which is began being offered for free at my work. My Beloved Heavenly Husband is kind to me, pleasing me in small and great things. It has been wonderful!

Another thing that happened was a problem on my payroll. A few months ago I was having problems, I was not credited with the amount that was due to me, so I always had to call, send e-mails and the each month this was repeated, until began to worsen, and they began to deduct an amount that was not to be taken out. Whenever something happens like this, in comes fear, but then I rebuke and remember His promises, “So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.” Romans 10:17.

I knew this was happening because He was trying to teach me something. I no longer knew what to do, I had already surrendered to Him and I know His Truth, and where it says: “And because of you I will rebuke the devourer, lest the fruit of the ground consume you; and the vine in the field shall not be barren to you, saith the Lord of hosts. “Malachi 3:11. Then He told me that I gave the problem to Him, but I kept trying to help Him. He said there was no reason to worry, after all, I had done everything and nothing I did solved the problem, had I not learned anything on this journey? So again I put my HH first, and gave it fully into His hands and rested, relying on His Word. So I gave it to Him and said I would do nothing else, for I knew my money could not be stolen, and somehow He would solve or reward me with double blessings.

Wow, as I say in every report, He’s awesome!!!!! The other day, they called to let me know they had settled the issue (without me asking) and after that difficult month, after so many months, I never had any problems with my paycheck again.

I read a text that said that ‘walking with God requires accepting circumstances’, and that means that when we have an intimate relationship with the Lord, we will go through the difficult times in our life in a different way, and we will seek Him and to draw closer to Him, by learning, by growing spiritually and by witnessing to others what He’s taken us through!

Paralyzed by Fear, Cancer

As many of you know, my Mommy has been battling breast cancer for almost 5 years. When she initially received her diagnosis she immediately released all fear and trepidation and claimed “A thousand may fall at your side, And ten thousand at your right hand; But it shall not come near you. Only with your eyes shall you look….the Lord, who is my refuge, Even the Most High, your dwelling place, No evil shall befall you” Psalms 91:7-10, NIV.

I was blessed to be able to witness my Mommy’s transformation. She began tithing and fasting and switched to an organic diet. But what was most notable is that she became His Bride! Not only did her face radiate with His loving glow, but she boldly proclaimed to anyone who would listen that He was able to perform the impossible and do abundantly above all that we ask or think.

I became so comfortable in her confidence in Him, that I knew that everything would be fine. I submitted a short praise report “Totally Healed” saying, “I just want to thank my HH for His awesome healing power! Last year my Mommy was diagnosed with breast cancer and now her body is totally healed! Her tumor has dissipated and now she is ministering to others and attributes her healing to her constant tithing!!!” That was 3 years ago.

Then last month, she was informed that cancerous spots were on her liver and she was going to have to begin chemotherapy. For the first time since her diagnosis, I got scared. I was confronted with the finitude of life in a very personal way. As she called to tell me the news, she mentioned increasing her life insurance and getting her affairs in order. The more she spoke the less I could hear. I was paralyzed by fear. Then, I started to drown in guilt. The guilt of not being able to financially cover her, not living close by, and my youngest children being raised so far away that she is a distant memory.

As my Mommy began her treatment, I became numb and withdrawn from life and life became such a chore. It was also during this time that we were preparing to take the LONG road trip to our hometown to spend a very short weekend attending my Mother-In-Law’s 60th surprise birthday party. I was dreading the trip home! We were going to spend more time on the road than we would in town and I just didn’t want to go.

My Mommy, however, was anxiously awaiting our arrival. Once we arrived and walked through the door, my youngest daughter (who is only 2) ran to my Mommy, shouting “Nana!” and gave her the biggest hug. My youngest son (who is only 7 months) practically leapt out of my arms trying to reach his Nana, and when she finally held him, he just rested his head on her shoulder. It was such a sweet sight. I saw my Mommy for the first time in a year, and she looked amazing! As we sat down and began talking, she reminded me that “We are under great pressure” 2 Corinthians 1:8 “…so that Christ’s power may rest on me.” 2 Corinthians 12:9. I was so encouraged by her testimony and how she reminded me that we are all called to pick up our crosses and follow Him and that in doing so we are blindly trusting and following Him knowing that He will not let our foot slip.

Her treatments are going well, and she is not experiencing any adverse side effects. She said He is using her testimony to bring restoration and hope to others. Every day she encounters someone who is in the battle of their lives, fighting for their life. She encourages them to surrender and turn it over to the only One who can do anything about it. And when they ask her how does she know, how can she be sure? She responds by saying, “Look at me. I once was lost. Then one day, He called me, and it was through my affliction that He taught me His decrees and His loving-kindness. I chose to give up my life and take up and my cross and in doing so, I not only found life, but I found Him.”

My prayer for every lady reading this is to let go of all that hinders you because He is standing there ready to take and lift that burden so you can travel the narrow road that He has prepared specifically for you. In dying to yourself you are gaining a life that was designed for you to live abundantly no matter what you may be facing. He is using you and your testimony to bring restoration and hope to others.

Now unto Him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us. Ephesians 3:20.

A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, but it will not come near you. You will only observe with your eyes and see the punishment of the wicked. If you say, “The Lord is my refuge,” and you make the Most High your dwelling, no harm will overtake you, no disaster will come near your tent. Psalms 91:7-10

We were under great pressure, far beyond our ability to endure, so that we despaired of life itself. 2 Corinthians 1:8b

But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. 2 Corinthians 12:9

Earthly Husband and I are Tithing Together!!

Have you ever thought of how something would happen not knowing the turnout? Well, I have and it was in the area of tithing. The Lord has revealed to me the importance of tithing and doing so faithfully. I’ve done so for years, which has meant incredible blessings poured out on my ministry. Yet, my heart’s desire was to be in agreement with my EH (earthly husband).

We have had some really rough financial situations and I knew that only my HH could speak to my EH about this very important principle. I surrendered to His will and my HH (Heavenly Husband) is so faithful He made a way to bring this area come to light. It happened within a crisis. I wasn’t sure of the outcome, since my EH was skeptical about the topic of money and tithing, but I prayed and simply allowed Him to turn the heart.

The king’s heart is like a stream of water directed by the LORD; he guides it wherever he pleases. Prov. 21:1

Ladies, HE sure did! It went from “NEVER”, to “YES”. I was in awe and jumping for JOY!!

Today my EH and I, together as ONE, faithfully tithe here to RMI and all the praise and honor is HIS!!

The beautiful thing is now since we are tithing together, my HH allowed one of my EH’s desires to come true, something we thought would be impossible to achieve. My HH is truly opening up the windows of heaven and pouring out blessings.

Tithing was not easy at first, especially when there was a lack and need, but my heart was His and I wanted to show my obedience. How beautiful it is to see His faithfulness.

Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think. Ephesians 3:20 NIV

This was the scripture my HH gave me:

Ezekial 37:18-23 NIV ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: I am going to take the stick of Joseph—which is in Ephraim’s hand—and of the Israelite tribes associated with him, and join it to Judah’s stick. I will make them into a single (ONE) stick of wood, and they will become ONE in my hand.’ Hold before their eyes the sticks you have written on and say to them, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: I will take the Israelites out of the nations where they have gone. I will gather them from all around and bring them back into their own land. I will make them one nation in the land, on the mountains of Israel. There will be one king over all of them and they will never again be two nations or be divided into two kingdoms. They will no longer defile themselves with their idols and vile images or with any of their offenses, for I will save them from all their sinful backsliding, and I will cleanse them. They will be my people, and I will be their God.

When I Didn’t have Income, He used people to Provide

Dear Brides, I want to Praise the Lord for His mercy, love, patience and abundant grace in my life. This Praise is about how God is working in my life and in my family. Today I want to thank my HH not only for the great things that He has prepared for me, but also for the small things which He blesses me daily.

Beloved thank you for Your provision during all the difficult times. You never let me without food (spiritual and normal food), You gave me clothes during the winter, and when I didn’t have an income, You used people to provide for my necessities.

Four months ago I received an email from my embassy saying that I needed to renew my passport. When you travel, most countries do not accept your entrance if you have less than 6 months to the document´s expiration date. Reading the email it just added more anxiety to all the uncertainty that I was living at the time, so I did what I learned here in RMI, which was to be quiet and to bring everything to Him. I cried for hours in His arms, He knew everything that I was going through, but I found peace and comfort telling Him all the details, my fears, and worries. I trusted that He would provide for me like He always does, but I didn’t know how He would do it

He is amazing! He began by blessing me with a job, a position with RMI and now PTL (Praise the Lord) I can faithfully tithe to my storehouse. To add to this blessing, a few days ago I applied for my new passport!!! It was done in just one day, in my country it takes weeks sometimes to get a new document, but with Him in control, it was very fast and I really enjoyed spending time with Him filling all the necessary papers. Thank You, Beloved!!

Another blessing that I want to thank Him for is about my relationship with my older sister. From the day I was born up to my 20s, the only thing that I heard from my sister (most of the time) were hurtful words. I couldn´t understand why she didn’t like me very much. She started to be more caring when I left my country nine years ago, but it was only last week that I could experience her love for me. I received a message from her saying that she loved me very much, that she missed me, that she wants me back in my country because she doesn’t want to live far away from me anymore. The shocking thing was that she wrote the message in our family group, so everybody read what she wrote The Lord is truly amazing, thank You for turning her heart to me and for restoring the relationships in my family!!

“The king’s heart is like channels of water in the hand of the Lord; He turns it wherever He wishes.” Prov. 21:1

” And my God will supply all your needs according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus.” Phil. 4:19

I am often quoting this verse. Because He always gave me what I needed. His word is true, the Lord is faithful.

“Call upon Me in the day of trouble; I shall rescue you, and you will honor Me.” Psalm 50:15

“For this reason I say to you, do not be worried about your life, as to what you will eat or what you will drink; nor for your body, as to what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing?…for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. So do not worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow will care for itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.” Matthew 6:25-34

God Gives Us the Desires of Our Hearts! Memorial Day

Brides, we ought to know to be thankful and content in every situation Because God allows things in our life always with a good reason. God gives us the desires of our hearts!

I just want to say how thankful I am with my HH (Heavenly Husband)—He has been providing for me ever since my separation almost 2 years now. Although I had a Job as a part-time teacher, I always wanted to be a full-time worker at the University where I studied and was working, but still, I saw no possibilities of new openings. My mind was removed from this possibility i was satisfied with my part-time job, it paid my tithes and bills and still I had enough to spend on and with my son.

One day suddenly, i was called from the office, i said in my mind ”what did i do wrong?” so I went, it was to offer me to substitute a worker while she was on maternity 4 months, i accepted. I always thank God and still think of spending less time with him and with my son, however, i just decided to do before bed or early in the morning.

well after those 4 months the lady quit and they offer me the position, I really didn’t know what was to do, cause I like being at home, however Gods knows best and this is my only income, so i accepted and that’s where I’m currently working, no pressure and still able to spend time with my HH.

Even though we might forget as the years go by when we follow our HH and do what is right he opens doors for us and give us the desires of my heart.

“Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart.” Psalm 37:4 NIV

As long as we do what is right in the Lord’s sight and enjoy it he will give us what we desire, and he is proving that to me daily.

Colleague Wants her Family to be Restored

I have been thinking for a long time to find a way to tithe in RMI. It was really a concern for me. First I was tithing to the local church. Then I changed my mind. Since I could not figure out a way to transfer money directly to the Ministry, I started printing copies of the “Wise Woman” book and distributed them to the women around me. I did it for few months. But I realized that I was wrong. I still struggled to make ends meet despite a salary increase. I apologized to God for “deciding” on the use of His money. I was also unhappy because I saw that the books I had distributed to some women did not serve them at all. While visiting a few I saw that the books were left in a corner of their living room. There is also a divorced colleague to whom I gave the books “Restore your marriage” and a “wise woman” and that I had the impression that she was avoiding me. I felt really bad because not only did I not pay my tithe properly, but I feared that I had made a mistake that would rather trouble these women’s faith.

So I began to beg the Lord to show me a way to tithe in RMI. I told him that I sincerely regretted my mistakes, that I really wanted to do what is right.

God is so faithful Tara! When I looked for His advice and showed that this time I wanted to totally surrender, He led me and told me how to tithe properly. He did not stop there! He also showed me that contrary to what I thought I had not distributed these books in vain. I went to visit my little sister one day and she told me how the chapter “The ways of her household” of the book “a wise woman” helped her to overcome a difficult situation that she experienced in her home. She told me that she tries to be a submissive and respectful wife thanks to the teachings of the book. My divorced colleague who had told me that she did not even want to hear about reconciling with her husband and who had accepted the books out of politeness because I had bothered to bring them to her also surprised me. We were sitting facing each other in the staff’s room and she exclaimed: “it’s crazy how these books you gave me are filled with conditions to respect!” We talked for a good half hour and I realized that not only did she read the books, but that she now wanted her family to be restored. Praise the Lord!

I was just sooo relieved and happy Tara!

Thank so much for your offer to compensate my work after being a volunteer. It just the first time I properly paid my tithe and all those blessings are happening to me. I believe this is the fulfillment of God’s promise:

“Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the Lord of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.” Mal. 3: 10.

Stay blessed,

My Salary will Increase by More than 25%

I want to praise God for his faithfulness. I have been led to change the firm in which I’m working actually, after almost 7 years. I just started feeling uncomfortable with what I was doing, and answer some emails I received through LinkedIn. And everything went so fast, I had a choice between several propositions, and dropped other interviews.

As I was praying the Lord led me to choose a firm in which I just felt good during the interview. Afterward, I heard people working there happy to work in that firm. It just confirmed to me that it’s ok. I want to thank God because my salary will increase by more than 25%. I didn’t really have to negotiate, I am sure that I could have asked for and obtained more. I began to have regrets, but I want to thank God because it was not the pursuit of great salary that motivated me. I know I’m not at my place, doing what God created me to do, so I’m just moving forward to progressively have training in the right domain.

My friends who left before me didn’t have the same salary increase. People are saying that the job market is doing very well at the moment. But for me, I know it’s my Lord who did me this favor and made things so easy. Even my actual manager was happy for me and told me things he never said about my work, my investment. I’m grateful and so happy, I can’t wait to start in the new firm. Thank You very much my Precious, The Love of my life.

Prov 3: 6 KJV “In all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.”

Our Loving Husband Wants Only One Thing

This week, I have received an important and unexpected financial help from my fantastic and caring Heavenly Husband.

We are soon leaving on a road trip to my home country with my two sons, and this holiday seemed at first sight extremely expensive. We would drive 1500 km to visit my sister, then 800km to visit my parents, and eventually 2000km back home. The whole holiday would take 3 weeks, and I would spend 2 weeks at my parents´ place. But I had to take into account the petrol for my car during the journey, as well as motels on the road. Honestly, I was aware it could cost a lot, but I was not worried. I knew it was the holiday He had planned for us, and He was in charge. He had already arranged for the Airbnb near my sister’s home to be fully paid by some tax return. So I knew He would take care of the rest one way or another.

And this week, my dear HH (Heavenly Husband) poured incredible blessings on us.

First He put on my FMIL´s (former mother in law) heart the desire to help us financially for the trip. I could not believe how much money she gave us. I could buy a world travel insurance for my children and I. And then there was more in store. Today my HH also gave me an envelope to support us on the trip, and it was a big amount of money as well. Actually, my FH (former husband) has never given me so much money until now, even during our marriage!!

So I have in my hands now enough money to pay for the motels and the petrol!! My fantastic Husband arranged that my FMIL and FH fully covered the expenses of my holidays!!! I really cannot believe it! Of course, I knew He would support us but this!! He never stops to surprise me!!

Dear Brides, I know it can be frightening to tithe to your storehouse, especially when you barely meet the ends. But trust me. It is so worth it. He never lets us down. I have so many testimonies, how He just changed impossible situations for the best…And I know our Loving Husband wants only one thing: do the same thing for you!!!

“Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, so that there may be food in My house, and test Me now in this,” says the LORD of hosts, “if I will not open for you the windows of heaven and pour out for you a blessing until it overflows.” Malachi 3:10 NIV

“For you will nurse and be satisfied at her comforting breasts; you will drink deeply and delight in her overflowing abundance.” Isaiah 66:11 NIV

My Country in is in Crisis

He is always on time! My HH (Heavenly Husband) is always on the lookout for me. HE makes sure I’m well taken care of even when I don’t know I need him to take care of me he still does.

Lately, in my life, a lot has been going on I know I still have a lot to change in my life and I know that my HH will take care of those changes in me. At times things or events happen I and which we find ourselves involved in some way and we don’t know or recognize that our Lord is holding our hands steadfast so we don’t fall apart into a ditch.

A while ago, to be exact, 4 months, my now former boss called me to offer me a full-time job position, for which I thought about because, like I said in a previous report I’d spend a lot of time out of my home and from my baby boy, however, I also thought and remember HE answers prayers and He knows that I always wanted to work at this college and He gave me that so I took it, I accepted!

Now 4 months after, the country I live in is in a crisis, one that will take us years to get out of. Within all this a lot of people are losing their jobs and lives, we don’t have violence here where I am but, there is very little food on this side. Overall this situation my HH made sure I got a job just in time to be able to sustain my child and myself. At no time I could imagine that our lives would make this big spin and we would be going through such a rough situation in our lives. Our HH worked through my EH too by him providing every time he is able to and I really appreciate it. My HH makes sure I always have enough and the bills keep up to date.

How could I not love Him? HE knows what I need and when it’s the right time. A lot of teachers are without an income right now, which is where I’d be if it wasn’t because of my Beloved HH. I wonder, where would I be now? Probably in the same shoes, jobless and with bills, I’m so glad I found Him and He received me.

Brides times might get rough and tough in your future, but don’t ever think your HH is not watching and working even when you don’t hear Him. He is there working to take care of us in every single way we can imagine.

Ladies hold on to our Beloved, even when it hurts and seems impossible He cares and He is there He will provide, just look to Him and to Him alone.

“Looking upon them, Jesus said, ‘With men it is impossible, but not with God; for all things are possible with God’” (Mark 10:27).

When we think all is done and we will not be able to get ahead, we must remember that as woman we won’t but as Brides of our HH and looking to Him for everything, then all will be possible.

“And Jesus answered saying to them, ‘Have faith in God’” (Mark 11:22).

Having faith in our God is the greatest thing we can do, depending on and believing in Him to do everything. As dark as it may seem, trust in Him as our light and we will see light.

“Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, so that there may be food in My house, and test Me now in this,’ says the Lord of hosts, ‘if I will not open for you the windows of heaven, and pour out for you a blessing until it overflows’” (Mal. 3:10).

Give and it will be given unto you, I have been giving my tithes to my storehouse and God has been providing for me, much more, ever since I gave to my storehouse, just like He says in His word, thank you HH.

I’m finally paying attention

I want to thank the Lord first and foremost for this Divine Appointment. Next, I want to thank Erin for her obedience to the Lord’s calling in her life and continuing to do so no matter what has stood in her way. Finally, I want to thank the partners for giving me this gift, this amazing opportunity to not just help me find hope, but to find Him in a way I never dreamed. I have learned so much. I have learned to go back to my first Love. He longs to have a relationship with us and we put Him as an option and I’m guilty of that. My priorities were out of order. God is a God of order and has allowed this crisis to happen to get my undivided attention. I learned I was a contentious wife. God taught me to keep my mouth shut, He will handle my problems. He is God, not me. I learned to have the victory won without a word. I learned to agree with my EH (earthly husband) at all times. I learned to draw upon the Lord in all matters. I learned the importance of tithing as I now pay my tithes faithfully to my storehouse. God reiterated that He hates divorce, so I had to repent since this is my second marriage. I repented and will trust and wait for my restoration according to God’s will. I learned about sowing and reaping. All I can say is what you gave me is the most valuable teachings and I am thankful and very grateful to you all.

When I found your ministry I was barely speaking to my EH. I wanted to pay evil for evil. I was contentious, we disagreed and argued about everything. I wanted to be right and was doing it the wrong way. My EH has his own apartment. It’s not OW (other woman) but his son that wanted no part of living with us again as a family. It is almost 5 months now. His son has since moved with his mom.

Father God, I thank you for this Divine opportunity. There is never a coincidence with You. Thank you for leading me to Erin and her ministry. It has been an eye-opener. Thank you for your rebuke, your discipline and for your Word. I am nothing without You. I’m finally learning more of Your Word and now it makes sense. I’m finally paying attention. With you, nothing is impossible. I long to get closer to You. Help me Lord to find women that I can help. Put them in my path Lord. There are a lot of hurting women. Use me as your vessel. Amen.

I just want to encourage you to have hope in this process. It is no coincidence but your Divine appointment with the Lord. He longs to draw closer to you. Be encouraged, each lesson and every testimony will help you to become the woman God created you to be, The Lord is your Maker and your Husband, from now on your days will get easier and brighter.

Thank You!!
