“I will open the windows of heaven for you. I will pour out a blessing so great you won’t have enough room to take it in!” — Malachi 3:10
Malachi 3:10 ESV
Bring the full tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. And thereby put me to the test, says the Lord of hosts, if I will not open the windows of heaven for you and pour down for you a blessing until there is no more need.

I. Money Is A Sensitive Topic.

He who is faithful in what is least is faithful also in much; and he who is unjust in what is least is unjust also in much. Therefore if you have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches? Luke 16:10-11

II. What Is The Tithe?

The word tithe means the tenth part. Another way to say it is that the tithe is ten percent.

Tithing Preceded The Law.

Then Melchizedek king of Salem brought out bread and wine; he was the priest of God Most High. And he blessed him and said: “Blessed be Abram of God Most High, Possessor of heaven and earth; And blessed be God Most High, Who has delivered your enemies into your hand.” And he gave him a tithe of all.Genesis 14:18-20
Genesis 14:18–20 (ESV)
And Melchizedek king of Salem brought out bread and wine. (He was priest of God Most High.)
And he blessed him and said, “Blessed be Abram by God Most High, Possessor of heaven and earth;
and blessed be God Most High, who has delivered your enemies into your hand!” And Abram gave him a tenth of everything.

Jesus Endorsed Tithing.

Matthew 23:23 and Luke 11:42
“Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You give a tenth of your spices—mint, dill and cummin. But you have neglected the more important matters of the law—justice, mercy and faithfulness. You should have practiced the latter, without neglecting the former.”

III. Tithing Brings Blessings.

Malachi 3:10–11 ESV
Bring the full tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. And thereby put me to the test, says the Lord of hosts, if I will not open the windows of heaven for you and pour down for you a blessing until there is no more need. I will rebuke the devourer for you, so that it will not destroy the fruits of your soil, and your vine in the field shall not fail to bear, says the Lord of hosts.

He Opens The Windows of Heaven.

He Rebukes The Devourer.

The devourer, the enemy of our soul is here to steal, kill, and destroy us John 10:10.
He can open up additional heavenly blessings into our lives and our finances.
He can act on our behalf to prohibit the devourer from wasting away our finances.
