For many years I didn’t understand why it was important of give the tithe to God. The tithe is ten percent of what you have earned. God has made many promises to those who take care of his house and take care of those who minister of his Holy things.
God is able to protect all that you have worked so hard for. And if you have suffered lost, when you begin to give a tenth to his work, he will restore.
10 Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the Lord of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.
11 And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field, saith the Lord of hosts.
12 And all nations shall call you blessed: for ye shall be a delightsome land, saith the Lord of hosts.
Malachi 3:10-12
Commitment to live for God in every way, causes his blessings to fall like rain.
