Pastor Dave Hoffman-Fear of the Lord

Under a Curse God’s second declaration is in verse 9 – if you do not tithe your finances are under a curse. The curse is not stated but is implied in verse 11: If you tithe I will rebuke the devourer from you. Since tithing engages God’s protection against the devourer, failure to tithe gives the devourer access to your finances—that is the curse! In the financial arena refusing to tithe is tantamount to rejecting God’s protection! The Hebrew word translated “devourer” in this scripture is ‘akal. It means, “to eat, devour, BURN UP.” It never refers to something good. This is no surprise—the devourer is Satan!
