Tithe is a Test for Blessings
It’s difficult enough to live in this materialistic world and save enough for oneself, or the family. It takes a huge leap of faith to give to others. It’s even more difficult when God tests me on it:
I am the Lord All-Powerful, and I challenge you to put me to the test. Bring the entire ten percent into the storehouse, so there will be food in my house. Then I will open the windows of heaven and flood you with blessing after blessing.
Malachi 3:10
He promises to give me more when I give more. He promises the riches of heaven, with blessings after blessings. Who wouldn’t want that? I do! But the test is difficult since I’m short sighted, shallow, and scared. I must put my eyes on the finish line. I must look to God for His richness. This world is fleeting. Heaven is permanent!
