—Deuteronomy 26:1-11
by: Angie Osborn.
God laid out a plan for the Israelites to give the first portion of their harvest back to Him. In this example, giving of tithes and first fruits is also tied to remembering. The Israelites were reminded of how God had faithfully provided for all their needs and that He would continue to do so. Our God is a generous God. We may not always recognize His generosity as we go through our everyday lives. But as we look back, we can see that He faithfully provides. As you give back to God with your tithes and offerings, remember all He has given you, reflect on all He has done in your life…and thank Him.
