Joyce Meyer

So for us to refuse it is rather foolish.

And if God's blessing you financially or however he's blessing you, just make sure that you use a good portion of it

to help spread the gospel.

Well, if you look online, I'm usually called a prosperity preacher.

Makes sense.

I learned from you.

Way to go.

But if you listen to my messages, mostly I'm crucifying people's flesh.

And one lady said, you're the only person that can kill me and make me laugh while you do it.

And I teach really spiritual maturity.

That's what I teach growing up in God.

You know, I teach God loves you and he wants you to, he wants you to be blessed, but he wants you to be blessed for the right reason.

You know, to, so you can be a blessing to,

to other people, and I think it's so funny that I'm called a prosperity preacher because I almost never talk about money, but we are cheating the people.

Paul at one time said, he wasn't talking about giving because he didn't want people to think he was after their money, and he said, I really did you a disservice.

by not teaching you.

And I don't think we teach enough on giving now.

Giving changed my life.

And people say today, well, we're under the new covenant.

We don't have to tithe.
