God is glorious; that is, He is great and magnificent—He is exceptionally grand in His nature and deeds. ā€œFull of splendor and majesty is his workā€ ( Psalm 111:3, ESV ).

The word ā€œtitheā€ means tenth. In Leviticus 27, during their time in the wilderness, the Law of Moses directs God’s people to give ten percent to the Lord. This was a mandatory act, for as the law explained, it ā€œbelongs to the Lordā€ and ā€œis holy to the Lordā€ ( Leviticus 27:30 ). Later, as God was preparing the Israelites to enter
2. Be an imitator of Christ. In other words, we should strive to be like Jesus in every way. As a matter of fact, this should be the number one goal of a Christian.
