Honour the LORD with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase:
Honour the Lord with thy substance, and with the first-fruits of all thine increase - by offering freely gifts for His service (Exodus 23:19; Malachi 3:7-10). This is another part of the worship of God, besides those just enumerated (Proverbs 3:1; Proverbs 3:5; Proverbs 3:7). David would not 'offer burnt offerings unto the Lord his God of that which cost him nothing', (2 Samuel 24:24). Yahweh complains of Israel's niggardliness toward Him as a proof of want of love (Isaiah 43:23). To have mercy on the poor is to "honour" God (Proverbs 14:31).
