Put God to the test and see what happens!

‘Bring the complete tithe…Test me in this.’

Malachi 3:10 

God is a meticulous planner. For example, He scheduled a dinner party known as ‘the marriage supper of the Lamb’ two thousand years in enhance (see Revelation 19:9). He advised Noah to construct the ark ‘450 toes long, seventy five toes wide, and forty five toes high’ (Genesis 6:15). He gave Moses the precise shades and fabric He desired used in setting up the tabernacle (see Exodus 26). And appear how exactly He orders the seasons and positions the stars. Can you think about such a God having no layout for your budget – the product of your work life?

 

Surely not! In Scripture He says: ‘Bring the entire tithe into the storehouse…Test me in this…see if I will not…open…heaven and pour out so a lot blessing…there will now not be room sufficient to keep it.’ The unique phrase for ‘whole’ is ‘unbroken’; that potential earlier than taxes and different deductions. Why? Because He wishes to be first in your existence in the whole lot – consisting of your finances. God additionally advised His people, ‘You have robbed Me…In tithes and offerings’ (Malachi 3:8 ). Stop and assume about the phrase ‘offer’. When you promote a residence you figure out whether or not or now not to take delivery of the ‘offer’ the customer is making. And in this Scripture God is saying, ‘Until you provide Me what’s rightfully mine (the tithe), why must I receive any different “offering”?’ Tithing isn’t simply about money; it’s about belief and obedience. When you tithe your income, you can count on God to pour out His blessing on you as He promised. You can stay underneath an open heaven; the desire is yours. 

God says, ‘Test me in this.’ Put God to the test and see what happens!
