Tithe and Offering
A Heartfelt Act of Worship
At Koinonia House of Fire Ministries, we believe that giving is a sacred expression of our love and trust in God. It’s not about obligation, but a joyful response to His faithfulness in our lives. When we give, we’re honouring Him with what we have, releasing our resources back to the One who provides for us abundantly. As Jesus reminds us, “For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also” (Matthew 6:21). Every gift, no matter the size, becomes a seed sown in faith, making way for God’s blessings in our lives and His work through our church.

The Importance of Tithe and Offering
"Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this," says the Lord Almighty, "and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that there will not be room enough to store it." – Malachi 3:10
Tithing and offering aren’t merely traditions; they’re acts of trust in God’s promises and provision. They’re not just financial transactions but acts of obedience. When we bring our tithe, we’re partnering with God, trusting that He will use it to build His kingdom and provide for our needs. It’s a reminder that all we have comes from Him, and we give not because we have to, but because we choose to honour Him with our best.
The Spiritual Significance of Tithing and Offering
"Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you." – Luke 6:38
Tithing and offering go far beyond transactions or obligations. In biblical times, people offered grains, animals, and harvests, not just as resources but as symbols of their labour, their love, and their trust in God’s provision. These gifts were more than materials; they represented something deeper: a spiritual exchange, a way to honour God with the best of what they had. Today, money carries that same spiritual significance. It represents our time, our work, and our heart’s intention. When we give, we’re not just supporting the church; we’re making a spiritual declaration, inviting God’s presence and blessing into every area of our lives.
In giving, we align ourselves with a divine principle of abundance. Luke 6:38 teaches us that when we give generously, we unlock the door to God’s overflowing blessings. But it’s not simply about receiving; it’s about stepping into a relationship with God where our faith and trust activate His promises. Our offerings speak prophetically, declaring that we trust God as our provider, that we release our hold on earthly resources, and that we embrace His supernatural provision.
Money can feel tangible, but it’s also a reflection of our heart's posture. Jesus teaches us that “where your treasure is, there your heart will be also” (Matthew 6:21). By giving, we allow our hearts to remain focused on God’s kingdom, loosening the grip of materialism and strengthening our trust in His sufficiency. In offering what we value to God, we invite Him to move in our lives, providing not just financially but spiritually, relationally, and in ways beyond our understanding.
So, we give not out of obligation but out of faith and love, knowing that God honours every seed we sow. And as we release what we have, we experience the fullness of His kingdom’s abundance—a measure that’s pressed down, shaken together, and overflowing in ways only He can provide.
