BOWING TO THE GIVERS (A.W. TOZER)

And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:19)

"The Church of the First-born is not dependent upon the patronage of men. No man has ever been able really to harm a church by boycotting it financially. The moment we admit that we fear the displeasure of the carnal givers in our congregations we admit also that our congregations are not of heaven but of the earth. A heavenly church will enjoy a heavenly and supernatural prosperity. She cannot be starved out. The Lord will supply her needs."
