God’s Faithfulness Through Tithing and Trust

I used to struggle with giving my tithes because I was afraid of not having enough. The fear of lack always held me back. But through my journey with God and the teachings I’ve received at KOGSC. I began to understand the importance and blessing that comes with honoring the Lord through tithing. In 2025, when I began serving in the ministry, I made a decision to overcome this fear by fully trusting in God. I committed to giving my full tithe before tending to my own needs. Not long after, a challenge came. The owner of the condominium I was renting wanted to raise the rent from RM1,500 to RM1,800 a significant increase that was beyond my means. To make it more difficult, the location was ideal just 20 minutes from both the church and my workplace.

Despite the pressure, I chose to continue trusting the Lord. And in His faithfulness, He opened a door for me to rent another unit in the same condominium, of the same size, for just RM1,300 a month! But God wasn’t done yet. He also heard my heart’s desire for career progression and blessed me with a promotion and an 11% salary increment! All glory to God for His unending provision and for lovingly teaching me how to walk in obedience and faith. He is always faithful when we put Him first.

From Lack to Abundance

In 2022, I began to tithe faithfully into the church. Since then, I’ve witnessed a constant flow of blessings in every area of my life. There has been no lack financially, my family relationships have grown stronger, and I’ve experienced true peace of mind. Our pastors always remind us not to rely solely on our own efforts, but to put God first and He will take care of everything. I have seen this truth at work in my own life, especially in my career. Every challenge I faced at work, God has resolved. I am deeply thankful for all that the Lord has done and continues to do in my life.

Fruits of Tithing

Towards the end of 2019, I was in financial debt because of a career change. Feeling lost and broken, I sought counsel from Pastors James and Susannah who advised and shared about the power of tithing as in Malachi 3:10. Despite my fears and worries, I felt the peace to tithe, so I gave whatever I had to God. Within a few weeks, I saw the fruits of my giving. I received an overflow of financial provision through tax returns, bonus and even a company award. I was able to pay off my debts and today I am completely debt free! I believe that God truly honours us as we honour Him with our giving.
