Malachi 3:10 (AMP)
10 Bring all the tithes (the whole tenth of your income)
into the storehouse, that there may be food in My
house, and prove Me now by it, says the Lord of hosts,
if I will not open the windows of heaven for you and
pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room
enough to receive it.

10. Jeremiah 6:16 (NIV)
16 This is what the Lord says: "Stand at the crossroads
and look; ask for the ancient paths, ask where the
good way is, and walk in it, and you will find rest for
your souls. But you said, 'We will not walk in it.‘

enemies into your hand." Then Abram gave him a
tenth of everything.

12. Hebrews 7:4-8 (NIV)
4 Just think how great he was: Even the patriarch Abraham
gave him a tenth of the plunder! 5 Now the law requires
the descendants of Levi who become priests to collect a
tenth from the people--that is, their brothers--even
though their brothers are descended from Abraham. 6 This
man, however, did not trace his descent from Levi, yet he
collected a tenth from Abraham and blessed him who had
the promises. 7 And without doubt the lesser person is
blessed by the greater. 8 In the one case, the tenth is
collected by men who die; but in the other case, by him
who is declared to be living.

3 And in the course of time Cain brought to the Lord an offering
of the fruit of the ground. 4 And Abel brought of the firstborn of
his flock and of the fat portions. And the Lord had respect and
regard for Abel and for his offering, 5 But for Cain and his
offering He had no respect or regard. So Cain was exceedingly
angry and indignant, and he looked sad and depressed. 6 And
the Lord said to Cain, Why are you angry? And why do you look
sad and depressed and dejected? 7 If you do well, will you not
be accepted? And if you do not do well, sin crouches at your
door; its desire is for you, but you must master it.
