“His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy Lord.” – Matthew 25:21
A man spoke to his pastor one day and said, “I don’t know what’s wrong, but God is not real to me anymore.” The wise pastor asked, “Is there any sin in your life?” In a moment of honesty the man responded, “Years ago I was tithing regularly to God, but one day I thought, ‘God doesn’t need the money as much as I do,’ so I stopped.”
The pastor said, “Will God say, ‘My child has disobeyed Me. He cannot trust Me with his resources, so I think I’ll bless him with even more financial resources.’ Will God do this?”
Absolutely not. If you’re not faithful with little, He won’t bless you with any more.
Are you faithfully tithing your income to the work of the Lord? If not, it’s time to.

One hundred percent already belongs to the Lord. He wants cheerful givers. He wants us to be led by His Spirit in giving, not reinterpretations of the Law of Moses.
Agreed – tithing is merely a starting point. Blessings to you Gary. 🙂
