“Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.”
Matthew 7:7, ESV
God wants to give us good things. Whenever we ask according to His will, we will receive. Sometimes He still gives, even when we don’t ask or don’t ask correctly.
He especially will give us when we ask for His glory, usually to share the Gospel.
Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.
2 Corinthians 9:7, ESV
The tithe was essentially a tax to pay for the Temple and priests in Israel.

For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened.
Matthew 7:8, ESV
God is first and foremost concerned with His glory and the salvation of our souls. Therefore, may not grant every request we make. He gives salvation, forgiveness, mercy, grace, and wisdom in abundance (and He does like to give us other things, as well.)
