The best way to explain this is by example:

Wells Fargo Bank has your bank account. Your account is a liability for them since this is not truly their money and it is obligated to you the account holder......so when they increase your account, they post a credit to it. Because to increase their liabilities they have to credit it......and when you use your debit card and decrease your account then wells fargo debits your account to remove the money.

For you as the account holder your checking account is your asset......so if you were tracking your accounting in a program.....and you wanted to show where you deposited money into your account in your system then you would post a debit to increase your cash account.
