What You Collect Does Not Prosper You, it is What You Give – Bishop David Oyedepo Reveals Why

I saw prosperity before I became a pastor of a church, I was a freelance minister doing fellowship on Fridays when I was around. We didn’t collect offerings in our fellowship, so it is not about collecting offerings from people. There are many offering collectors who are pastors and they are very poor. What you collect does not prosper you, it is what you give. 

There are very many pastors of big congregations who are paupers. He said to me “get back home and make my people rich”. I said how? He said “as poor yet making many rich. Don’t look at you, you are not the source of what I am asking you to tell them. Tell them how to access my riches in glory”. That’s what I am telling you his morning.

May this gain entrance into you. It will terminate all forms of financial misfortune and make you live above all economic circumstances. No guesswork. Some young people are running around saying that there is nothing like tithing in scripture, sit down with your financial tightness. He told me, I heard Him, I believed Him and it showed. 

Somebody brought me a seed from Jos last week and after hearing what she was saying. I knew God wanted me to return the seed back to her. “I place this in your hand as Abraham returned to Isaac with a sworn blessing. This will open new chapters in your life”. 

She was crying, I said don’t worry God told me not to take it. People are not looking for what to collect they are busy giving. One of the professors at Covenant University was testifying, He said “Sir I was on your scholarship when I was at the University of Ilorin” you heard it, did I know him? No! How much do you have? I won’t tell you, we were busy distributing and God kept supplying. Today, he is a professor.

I met another one, he said I have been on your scholarship since I was 14 years old. He is an associate professor today. We didn’t have a school so it is not that we are preparing them to come to our school, school for where. 

This thing works every day, works every time. A young man met us at the Outreach Office and said “Sir, I was on your scholarship from K.H.M.S to Faith Academy, I ended up at the University of Benin, I am now a graduate”. You can’t sit down there and be watching and expect things to change, wake up and start putting God’s word to work if you truly understand it.
