The Jehovah compound names and the I AM statements are covenant relationship names. Many times they are translated personally (Jehovah Jireh my provider) or used in very personal settings (I am the Resurrection and the Life to Mary and Martha). They are God's commitments to us personally. God has so much that He can constantly give and give to us and never run out. He has nor need any other source than Himself.
Since God has created all that exists (see Creator for the specific verses) it follows that He also owns it all, too. Do we treat the tithe and all we are "loaned" as belonging to God? He owns us, too, for He bought us back from Satan. Let's give Him His tithe as a statement that all we are and have is His to do with as He pleases. He has made us stewards of His creation. Let's treat everything that way.
God has so much that He can constantly give and give to us and never run out. He has no need nor any other source than Himself.
