Worship, charity, birth, marriage, success, failure, and death are individual and community events simultaneously. Never forget the value of common merry-making. Good parties make good neighbors.
The third-year tithe wasn't taken to the Temple, but stored in the communities where it would be used. It was an honor-system, community-supported welfare for Levites, landless, orphans, and widows.

You shall say before YHWH your God, "I have removed the sacred portion out of my house, and moreover, I have given it to the Levite, the sojourner, the fatherless, and the widow, according to all your commandment that you have commanded me. I have not transgressed any of your commandments, nor have I forgotten them."

Once you know what God expects from you or if you have promised something to God, don't hold onto it any longer than necessary. Get it out of your house.

And will not God give justice to his elect, who cry to him day and night? Will he delay long over them? I tell you, he will give justice to them speedily. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on earth?
Luke 18:7-8
The point isn't that God makes you wait until you've asked enough times and proven your seriousness through persistence, but that he doesn't make you wait any longer than is necessary to fulfill the needs of the kingdom.
God speaks to different people differently depending on what kind of relationship they have with him. He speaks more plainly to those who want to hear and act on what he says. Those who are more likely to put God's words to use are probably more likely to hear him plainly. Those who won't act on them will have to work harder to hear and understand.
Sometimes, people don't want to hear God's truth. They don't want to be forgiven and healed, because that would mean greater accountability. Nobody expects much of the sick, so some people want to remain spiritually sick. It's easier.
When you choose to see and hear, God will give you something to see and hear. How God speaks to you from then on will be determined by whether you keep or reject it.
This principle extends to finances, authority, etc. If you refuse to be responsible for what God gives, don't expect more. Don't look at anyone else either. You don't know their heart or God's plans for them.
Matthew 13:10-17
