Opening Prayer (In Unison)

Almighty God, in the powerful name of Jesus, we thank you for our inheritance as kingdom citizens. By the spirit of the Carpenter, Jesus Christ, we strike down now the spirit of lack and limitation: you will not hold us at

the same level anymore. We are going where we’ve never gone before. We resist every hindrance behind us, beside us, in front of us and within us that

would trip us up and slow us down. Through the power of Christ, we bind those deceptive spirits that keep coming up behind us, trying to steal what

God has given us. In the name of Jesus, we cancel all of the plots and assignments of the enemy. We are children of God. We are asset owners. We are land possessors. We are wise investors. We are sacrificial givers.

We are kingdom builders. We are blessed in the name that is above every name, in the name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.

   

Unison Scripture Reading: Psalm 100 (NKJV) 1Make a joyful shout to the Lord, all you lands! 2 Serve the Lord with

gladness; Come before His presence with singing. 3 Know that the Lord, He is God; It is He who has made us, and £not we ourselves; We are His people and the sheep of His pasture. 4 Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, And

into His courts with praise. Be thankful to Him, and bless His name. 5 For the Lord is good; His mercy is everlasting, And His truth endures to all

generations.

God, we love you and the genuine expression of love is giving. You showed your love for us first by giving us your Son. We demonstrate our love for you by giving now a portion of what you have given to us. We give freely. We give cheerfully. We will not rob you. Instead, we will worship you by giving from our heart.  You are our #1 priority. We will not treat banks or bills better than we treat you because you deserve all the glory, the honor and the praise. We refuse to live under a curse. Therefore, in obedience to your Word, we bring our tithe and our offering to you today. PUT your promise into action! Open the windows of heaven and provide what we need for our desires and our destiny!

POUR into our lives the phenomenal and spectacular by releasing a blessing that is beyond our wildest dreams! PROTECT everything that we currently have and do not permit the enemy to abort anything that you are trying to give us for our future.  The tithe is what we owe, the offering is seed we sow. We sow now with the expectation of jobs and better jobs, of businesses and greater businesses, of raises and bonuses, of houses and land, of freedom from debt and supernatural increase. Bless us indeed and enlarge our territory as we live for your glory. Alleluia! In the mighty, matchless and miraculous name of Jesus, we confess. Amen!
