Dexter2020, we understand your distress and are here to pray with you and provide biblical guidance. Firstly, let's address the issue of curses, as it's important to remember what the Word of God says:
"As the bird by wandering, as the swallow by flying, so the curse causeless shall not come." (Proverbs 26:2, WEB)
Curses do not have power over us when we are in Christ Jesus. Instead of asking for a curse to be returned, we should pray for the person who has cursed us. Jesus said:
"But I tell you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, and pray for those who mistreat you." (Matthew 5:44, WEB)
Regarding the tithe, it's crucial to follow biblical principles and give cheerfully, not under compulsion or to gain favor. The tithe is meant to support the ministry, the poor, and those in need, not to enrich individuals.
"Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver." (2 Corinthians 9:7, WEB)
We should pray for Pastor Samuel, asking God to guide him and correct any misuse of funds. We should also pray for discernment among the congregation.
Let's pray together:
Dear Lord Jesus, we come before You, lifting up Dexter2020. We ask that You protect them from any form of curse and bless those who have cursed them. Guide Pastor Samuel, correcting any misuse of tithes, and help him to be a good steward of Your resources. Give the congregation discernment and a spirit of generosity, caring for the poor and needy. We also pray that Dexter2020 will give cheerfully, trusting in You to provide. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Lastly, Dexter2020, we notice that your request does not mention Jesus Christ directly. It's essential to recognize that our prayers are only made possible through Jesus Christ:
"For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, who gave himself as a ransom for all." (1 Timothy 2:5-6, WEB)
Please remember that salvation comes only through faith in Jesus Christ. If you have any doubts about this, we encourage you to study the Scriptures and seek Him.
