Luke 11:42 βBut woe to you Pharisees! For though you are careful to tithe even the smallest part of your income, you completely forget about justice and the love of God. You should tithe, yes, but you should not leave these other things undone.
Deuteronomy 14:22-23 βYou must tithe all of your crops every year. Bring this tithe to eat before the Lord your God at the place he shall choose as his sanctuary; this applies to your tithes of grain, new wine, olive oil, and the firstborn of your flocks and herds. The purpose of tithing is to teach you always to put God first in your lives.
Exodus 22:29 βYou must be prompt in giving me the titheβ¦β
Genesis 14:20 βAbraham gaveβ¦ a tenth of everything.β
Malachi 3:8-11 βWill a man rob God? Surely not! And yet you have robbed me. ββWhat do you mean? When did we ever rob you?β βYou have robbed me of the tithes and offerings due me. 9 And so the awesome curse of God is cursing you, for your whole nation has been robbing me. 10 Bring all the tithes into the storehouse so that there will be food enough in my Temple; if you do, I will open up the windows of heaven for you and pour out a blessing so great you wonβt have room enough to take it in! βTry it! Let me prove it to you! 11 Your crops will be large, for I will guard them from insects and plagues. Your grapes wonβt shrivel away before they ripen,β says the Lord Almighty.
2 Chronicles 31:5,12 βThe people responded immediately and generously with the first of their crops and grain, new wine, olive oil, honey, and everything elseβ¦ a tithe of all they ownedβ βAll the dedicated supplies were brought into the Lordβs houseβ¦β
A Biblical Money Management Commitment
The concept of tithing has been the method of financially supporting the church and its ministry on earth since the Early Church. Tithing means contributing 10% of oneβs income to the storehouse β the place where one receives their spiritual strength; the church they attend. Contributions to missions and para-church organizations would be considered offerings β donations beyond the 10% tithe.
If you do not tithe, you are encouraged to practice this Biblical principle for the next three months. First, you decide to commit the FIRST 10% of your weekly income to the storehouse. Then, for 90 DAYS, you bring that portion of your income to the storehouse. After that 90 day prior, if it has created a financial crisis, or you did not receive a blessing, your money will be returned.
REQUIREMENT βBring the whole tithe into the storehouse.β
RESPONSE ββ¦and test me now in thisβ¦β
REWARD ββ¦open for you the windows of heaven, and pour out for you a blessing until it overflows.β Malachi 3:10
