[Mal 3:8-10, 12 KJV] 8 Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me. But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee? In tithes and offerings. 9 Ye [are] cursed with a curse: for ye have robbed me, [even] this whole nation. 10 Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that [there shall] not [be room] enough [to receive it].

https://www.bible.com/organizations/a1f2d23c-a903-4f42-8427-ddbcf1a10ce2His name was Simon: and where was that other Simon? What a silent, but strong rebuke this would be to him. Simon Peter, Simon son of Jonas, where wast thou? Another Simon has taken thy place. Sometimes the Lord’s servants are backward where they are expected to be forward, and he finds other servitors for the time. If this has ever happened to us it ought gently to rebuke us as long as we live. Brothers and sisters, keep your places, and let not another Simon occupy your room.” (Spurgeon)

Opportunties to support this ministry
At Abundant Grace, we teach that there are benefits to obeying the promises of God. In Malachi 3:8-12, God promises to pour out a blessing unto us when we give our tithes and offerings. We won’t ask you for your mortgage money or your electric bill money, because we believe that God gave you that money to pay your mortgage or electric bill! Neither will we ask 50 people to stand up, and then to ask you for you $100 after you are up! We just believe that if everyone pays their tithes and offerings, then the needs of the church will be met. God has given so much to us, so why can’t we give back to him!
