HOW GOD SEES YOUR TITHES AND OFFERINGS
1. a. He that is faithful in little will be faithful in much (Matthew 25: 21, 23-29).God uses little things to check our faithfulness. If we are faithful in those little things, God commits greater things to our trust. In other words, we are given greater responsibilities because we have been able to build on the things committed to us.
2. b. Remember that God, who is the creator of all things, gives you the power to create wealth (Deuteronomy 8:18). Therefore it will be wise to honour him with it. He gives us wealth for a purpose: To establish his covenant here on earth. So as you honour Him with your wealth, he makes more available to you.
3. c. Your tithes sanctifies your money, and since your money is sanctified, it goes a long way in accomplishing what you want to use it for (Malachi 3:8-11).
4. d. Open windows and closed windows (Malachi 3:10-11, Haggai 1:5-11). By open windows are opportunities. When we give our tithes and offerings, God makes away for us to receive more, by presenting opportunities to us. The devourer being rebuked means that trouble or problems are taken away from our path. The reverse is the case for a closed window. We find out that things tend to be against us and unnecessary expenses arise; it will seem as if there is a hole in our pocket. Things concerning our finances start going bad, because we refuse to give our tithes and offerings.
