8. God promises rain, protection and favor in the above verses. Without rain and protection upon our gardens, we will not reap from the seeds we sow. Likewise, after we tithe, the conditions are right for sowing seeds of finances called offerings. It is this law of sowing and reaping that brings increase financially to our lives. II Corinthians 9:6 says:* This field is required.

9. Tithing also connects us to God-ordained spiritual authority, which provides protection for our spiritual lives. God has placed leadership in local churches that represent His authority in the church. When we tithe to the local church God has led us to, we are showing God our submission to His order. Hebrews 13:17 states:* This field is required.

10. When we tithe and are faithful to our local church, the anointing of the leadership in that church can flow down upon our lives and bring spiritual strength and growth to us because we have joined our hearts to the calling God has placed upon that particular church and leadership.

11. Offerings constitute our giving because we are using a portion of what is actually ours(after we tithe) to do with as we are prayerfully led and giving it to another. Offerings are most often designated by the one giving and should be given into spiritually fruitful places. It is the “seed sown” into “good ground” after the tithe has been paid from which we can expect to reap a harvest. Luke 6:38 says:* This field is required.
