1. Tithe. Owner Steward principle
One of the principles on the power of giving is tithe- the owner Steward principles which represent acknowledgement of God’s Sovereignty and provision.
Case study
Abraham and Melchizedek.
Abraham introduced the owner Steward principle,Tithe right after Melchezedek blessed him. The tithe was the response Abraham gave to the blessing he received, a response to acknowledged God as the possessor of Heaven and earth because he had come to the understanding that God is the owners and he isthe Steward, so God as owner is to be honour by giving Him a tenth percent of all. Abraham responded because of the terms of arrangement he has with God. As a covenant partner or a friend Abraham’s revelation is pass down to us as an act of faith as we approach God wssing in ho made and created all things.The tithe connects us to the blessing and to source of the bleour live.
2. The principle of obedience and faith.
Giving tithe to God is the act of love, obedience and faith. Faith is necessary when releasing your precious oŕ your significant seed Hebrew 7:17. Abraham obeyed God and by faith when hè was tested to offer up his son Isaac, he gave up and received. Abraham’s obedience and faith in God to sacrifice or to give up what is precious and most dear to him is a powerful testament to sacrificial giving. Moreover when Joshua’s generation crossed Jordan they crossed in trust and obedience to God. So God really on that generation since they obeyed His commandments and follow the leader He has placed over them. Joshua 5: 17.
3.The seed principle. Genesis 21:28

Seed connect us to the blessing, it’s a covenant connector to your covenant of wealth and increase Deuteronomy 8:18. Abraham tithe to Melchezedek because he understood that God was the owner and was the stiward. As believers the empowerment to prosper is giving to the one who understands the owners Steward relationship between himself and God. The seed is also known as the word of God.
