Understanding the Storehouse for Tithes
What Is the Storehouse Where Tithes Go?
The Old Testament offers us examples to guide our actions today, as evidenced by Paul's messages:
1 Corinthians 10:6
"Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted." (KJV)
1 Corinthians 10:11
"Now all these things happened unto them for examples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come." (KJV)
Paul highlights Israel's history as lessons for us today. A key teaching is found in Malachi, where God instructs us to bring tithes to the storehouse:
Malachi 3:10
"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." (KJV)
The primary question is: What exactly is the "storehouse"? The Old Testament provides context.
Different Terms for the Storehouse
Throughout scripture, we find various terms used to describe the storehouse:
- Treasures: 1 Chronicles 26:20
- Treasuries: Nehemiah 13:13
- Chambers: 2 Chronicles 31:11; Nehemiah 12:44; Nehemiah 13:5
- Treasure House: Nehemiah 10:38
These terms illustrate that the storehouse is where God's treasures?"the tithes?"are kept. Now, what are these treasures for?
Purpose of the Storehouse
Examining the scriptures shows us that the treasures in the storehouse are meant for supporting the ministry, including:
- Buildings and equipment
- Ministers of all levels, from Levites to humble servants
Every minister and helper should be supported by these treasures without exception.
The Modern-Day Challenge
Many today question why they don't receive the promised blessings despite tithing. The answer may lie in how their storehouse functions?"if it doesn’t support all parts of the ministry as scripture dictates, it might not deliver the blessings.
Some modern storehouses fail to recognize certain God-ordained ministries, acknowledging only their own organization's workers. Such practices may hinder the blessings intended for tithers.
Abounding in Every Good Work
God encourages us to support "every good work." The term "abound" suggests making something wealthy. By fully supporting God's work, we unlock the promise of abundant blessings. As God promises, He will "abound" to us, enriching us and meeting our needs.
Conclusion
The "storehouse" serves the essential roles of supporting both the infrastructure and those who minister within it. adhering to this model aligns with Malachi's promise of blessings so abundant that there won't be room to contain them.
