Faith is something spiritual, what you get from God as an exchange for what you are ready to give away for the glory of God.
You are expected to pay your God, His tithes. Tithes, is a religious term for a portion of one's own earnings. You can call it a religious duty. If it is your money, then tithe is something which God can claim from it, if you confess your LORD your God. Your job is only to return His belongings from your pocket. It is His money.
Jesus Christ spoke to the Jews to pay their taxes to their physical ruler - the Caesar, when they had an argument. Likewise, God is one's spiritual Ruler and He needs His portion of goods to keep Him aware your in the circle.
Periodic offering of tithe is the best way, I think, to pay God His dues. Why has it to be money? Money is respected by everyone. God expects man to give what an unbeliever respects, and He will give you what you want. An unbeliever by the way, is someone who has not accepted or not accepted Christ as the Saviour.
In short, faith is what God gives in the spiritual medium, for your giving in the natural medium.
Can paying tithes to God prove to be useful to beat every crisis in life? Yes! God can deliver you out of every crisis if you pay your tithes regularly. Do you want to know why? Have you seen people going to the doctors and get their ailments treated with the money they owe him? They go with an assurance that money can be exchanged for his professional duty. Unbelievers pay for their health. Believers can tithe for their health. As for believers, God understands the dutifulness of His people when they respect Him with their tithes.
Here is another way of understanding this concept. You can sacrifice to God what they (unbelievers) worship as a god. Naturally, when money earns their health to them, they can worship money, isn't it? The needs are many - health, household goods, transportation, education, residential space, etc., to people. How wonderful it would it be for a believer to give away all [religious] dues to one place itself!
Nowadays churches have their websites and online money-transfer methods. How easy would it be to pay off your tithes regularly though the internet? Money is god for unbelievers as we treated above. Say for example a common expense of an unbeliever. He has to pay Rs. 40 or so to spend time in leisure for around 2 and 1/2 hours in a cinema theatre. Where do you get your joy from? Have you got to move out of your seat to get it? Likewise, God can prove to be effective in delivering you only if you pay your tithes regularly.
If your wife is earning by stitching or making woollen garments for neighbourhood children, ask her according to what she earns. If your child is making money by blogging, internet and other stuff, ask to pay his/her tithes so that God can reward. If you rent a house for additional income, increase your tithes as per the additional income you receive.
The successful fact to bring a financial harvest is that, you have to receive more than what you have sowed or expected to harvest at the time of sowing. Harvest is more than what has been sowed. First you sow, then God shall decide upon the number of times He would multiply it. Satan is rapidly functioning these days and people are made beggars in no time. Have you seen rich people getting into some businesses and getting huge losses? That is the proof we can take that God also can make ordinary people into rich men in a similar fashion.
There are possibilities that a believer can inherit the sinners' property. Your duty is to sow, God's duty to multiply. But make sure you share with others, what you have received as a previous harvest. The ultimate purpose of any resource on earth is to satisfy the needs of human beings on earth!
