All throughout the Scriptures God lets us know that giving is a part of worship. One of the ways you know you love God is if you obey His commands. Not only has He commanded that we bring the tithe – the first ten percent of our income – back to Him at the local church, the Bible also indicates that giving is a natural act of love. When I love someone it is natural for me to give to them. I love my wife and my children so it is normal for me to give regularly to them and occasionally to give something special to them. It would be totally wrong for me to say that I love my family if I never gave anything to them but selfishly kept everything to myself.

That is why you need to give as a regular part of worship. You really are not worshipping God if you do not obey Him and give. Bringing the tithe is the entry point in worshipping God. That is why it is so important that you give.
