The Bible has much to say about giving and its importance in the maturing life of a follower of Jesus. Many verses touch on this topic. Here are a few of them:
Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this,” says the Lord Almighty, “and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that there will not be room enough to store it.
Malachi 3:10
Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.
Luke 6:38
Remember this: Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously. Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.
2 Corinthians 9:6 – 8
For the follower of Jesus, these passages and more emphasize the importance of giving with a generous and cheerful heart, not out of obligation but out of a desire to serve God and others. Giving is portrayed as an act of worship and obedience that brings blessings to the giver and those who receive. Supporting your local church financially is a part of living in a Christian community.
