Matthew describes this scene in Chapter 2:11, “On coming to the house, they saw the child with his mother Mary, and they bowed down and worshiped him. Then they opened their treasures and presented him with gifts of gold and of incense and of myrrh.” The magi could not worship Jesus without also opening their treasures and presenting their gifts to Him.  The offering is an act of worship, an instance in which we are invited to give up something that we value—our money—as a sacrifice to God. In many ways, it is the highest point of the liturgy… For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. (Matthew 6:21)

Tithing is really about training our heart to trust God at His Word. When we bring our first and best back to God, He promises to pour out so many blessings we won’t have room to receive! “As God has given to you generously, you are to give cheerfully, not by necessity or grudgingly, nor under complusion. For God loves a cheerful giver.” (2 Corinthian 9:7)

Victory Temple Christian Life Center is committed to strengthening the Body of Christ across nations, cultures, and regions. One of the ways we live out this calling is through our partnership with Open Doors International, a trusted ministry serving persecuted Christians around the world.

Victory Temple supports Open Doors through faithful prayer partnership—using their monthly Prayer Calendar to intercede for believers in hostile and high‑pressure regions—and through ongoing financial support that helps provide discipleship resources, spiritual care, and practical aid to those standing firm in their faith.

Our Global Missions commitment, however, reaches beyond this partnership. Your generosity also enables Victory to respond to emerging needs, uplift additional mission efforts, and support Kingdom work wherever God opens the door.

To join us in this global Kingdom assignment, we invite you to give through Givelify and select Missions. Every gift strengthens the global Church and helps extend Christ’s love to believers around the world. If you prefer to give directly to Open Doors International, you may also donate at ODUS.org/VTCLC.

Thank you for your generous support.
