When we conduct business with a lawyer or a financial advisor, we usually pay them for their services. Likewise, when it comes to God, we technically pay Him for His services. We pay God for His services in the form of tithes and offering.
In Malachi 3:10, God is advertising His business/services to us by saying, 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 you will not have room enough for it. God is daring us to join His business of giving our tithes and offering. God doesn’t need our business but, He wants our business. God wants us to be a in a place of more than enough and He desires for His people to be blessed. The only way to have more than enough is through our obedience in giving.
God’s not trying to take something from us. He’s only using this method to bless us.
Malachi 3:10 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 you will not have room enough for it.
