Salvation Ministries’ senior pastor, Pastor David Ibiyeomie, addressed his congregation at their first service. He stated that if you fail to plan, as a wise man once remarked, you’ve planned to fail. When you’re under financial stress, I don’t mean because of your job; 99 percent of the time, it’s due to your bad preparation.
Speaking further, he said that It is unscriptural to bind your landlord when he built his own house for goodness’ sake, why are you binding a man, do you think he built the house for you to live for free? He said that those are not scriptural prayer, it is against the scripture. Pay your rent. Don’t speak in tongues and pray that he has a stroke, why will the man have a stroke, why will your landlord have a stroke, what did he do to you that you want him to have a stroke and then you say he is not born again? That’s why you now start quoting scripture that has no meaning.
He then advised them to plan. Plan with your available resources, don’t plan with what is not in your hand. Don’t go and plan with another man’s money, don’t say my brother will give me money this December, plan with what you have. “Don’t play with your tithe, remove your offering, invest in the Kingdom, keep some reserve for the challenges you will face because they must come,” he said.
