The central theme of the book, “God’s Plan for Prosperity”, is “The Four Types of Giving”: Tithes, Firstfruits, Alms & Seed, which Mark Gorman first taught in 2002. When they heard Mark’s teachings, many pastors asked if Mark had a book which taught these principles, so they could teach it to their congregations. That resulted in the writing of this book, published in 2004. Since then, several other ministers have started teaching “The Four Types of Giving” on their TV programs, in their own ministry conferences and churches, and on their websites, even writing books on the topic of “The Four Types of Giving”. For these well-known ministers to teach Mark’s principles, practically verbatim, from his book, is proof positive that this is a revelation from God for the Body of Christ. Many who have read this book have testified to major increases in their finances, after learning these principles and putting them into place in their lives, some reporting increases of several million dollars in a matter of months, by simply learning how to recognize their harvest. One man from South Africa wrote to us, saying that for years he wondered why he wasn’t receiving a harvest from his giving. But, after reading the book, he realized that he hadn’t been sowing seed, but instead, had been giving alms. Of the Four Types of Giving, alms is the only one that is not given to God, but instead, is given to man, so the return is not increase/harvest, but reimbursement. You will never see your finances or giving the same, after reading this book. It could very well change your financial future.

I wish that every believer today would listen to Mark Gorman. Nothing can shackle the spread of the gospel more than the insidious spirit of poverty that binds so many of God’s people. But God’s Plan for Prosperity is the answer! It will bring immediate deliverance to every reader who is willing to follow these clear biblical principles. I love this book!
