Reading For Monday | Deuteronomy 14:22-23
While Jesus came into the world to fulfill the law, we still see that He established His Church to continue encouraging generous giving to the Lord (Matthew 6:1–4). Paul then expands on Jesus’ teachings in 2 Corinthians 9:6–15, emphasizing that the Lord still calls us to give with a generous spirit. Although our tithe today looks different from the offerings of the Old Testament—such as the first crops or cattle—the principle remains. We are still expected to give the first tenth of our salary and other earnings as an act of obedience and submission to the Lord, who is exceedingly generous with us.
JOURNALING & REFLECTION
- Am I honoring the Lord by giving the first portion of my salary or earnings, or am I giving Him what’s left over?
- Is it time to begin praying about giving more than a tenth?
While the tithe (a tenth) is a biblical baseline, it's not meant to be a limit. If you sense the Lord calling you to grow in generosity, trust that He will continue to provide as you follow His lead.
