Where do I bring my tithe?
According to Malachi 3:10 "Bring all the tithes into the storehouse." The storehouse is where you get fed spiritually and is the local or internet church you attend. However, the tithe is the Lord's and you must under all circumstances obey His leading on where to bring your tithes.
Tithe and Offering

The Tithe is - Leviticus 27:30
The tithe is ten percent of your gross income, your income before taxes. This ten percent belongs to the Lord,many times as believers we feel as if we are doing God a favor by giving him ten percent of what is ours. However, we don't own that ten percent, he does. As believers we don't give him the tithe either, we return it. How can you give something that doesn't belong to you?
Since we don't own the tenth we don't give it, we return it. Malachi 3:7 says "Return to me, and I will return to you, Says the Lord of hosts. "But you (the nation of Israel) said, In what shall we return?" God answers this question in verse eight "In tithes and offerings."
So what does the tithe do? The tithe opens up the windows of heaven (Malachi 3:10). This word windows in Hebrew is the same word as floodgates. When you tithe you open up the floodgates of heaven's blessings for you and your family.

The tithe is ten percent of your gross income before taxes.
When do I give the tithe?
You give the tithe as soon as you get it. If you get paid every Friday then you bring the tithe every Sunday, if you get paid bi-weekly then you bring the tithe bi-weekly. If you go on vacation and miss church you still bring your tithes before you leave on vacation or after you get back. Never miss bringing a tithe!
