When we give our first fruits to the LORD, we deepen our relationship with Him by honoring and trusting God rather than our earthly possessions to bless us.
Giving
“Bring all the tithes into the storehouse, That there may be food in My house, and try Me now in this,” Says the LORD, “…And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, So that he will not destroy the fruit of your ground, Nor shall the vine fail to bear fruit for you in the field,” Says the LORD; “And all nations will call you blessed…”
Malachi 3:10-12 NKJV

What is ACH? Why is it beneficial? How do I set it up?
WHAT
An ACH transaction is a safe electronic money transfer made between banks and credit unions that are typically at lower risk of unauthorized charges.
WHY
- Greater Kingdom impact – ACH transactions have significantly lower fees than card donations, meaning more of your giving supports Kingdom mission! The fees for ACH are only 45 cents, compared to the industry standard credit card fee of 2.9% (of the total giving amount).
For example, a $1,000 tithe or offering would result in a transaction fee of only 45 cents opposed to 29 dollars! - More secure – Opposed to card transactions, ACH transfers are typically at lower risk of unauthorized charges and are also less likely to fail due to declined cards or expirations.
- Worry Free – Provides you with a stable and consistent way to give.

To set up ACH giving:
- log into the Awaken app
