TOPIC: SACRIFICE: Examples Of Burnt Sacrifice (3)
MEMORY VERSE:
Hebrews 13:15-16.
“15. By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name.”
“16. But to do good and to communicate forget not: for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.”
BIBLE READING:
Genesis 8:20-21.
“20. And Noah builded an altar unto the LORD; and took of every clean beast, and of every clean fowl, and offered burnt offerings on the altar.”
“21. And the LORD smelled a sweet savour; and the LORD said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for man’s sake; for the imagination of man’s heart is evil from his youth; neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done.”
Thinking Point.
Every Sacrifice has it’s uniqueness so does there effective result from God.
May we all win the heart of God with our sacrifices this week in Jesus Mighty name, Amen.
Do you know that God really changed his mind from placing curse on the earth which simply means, It’s neutralizes the initial curse placed in Eden? Yes, Noah changed this by his sacrifice. After the flood, the first sacrifice was done by Noah and what made it unique was presenting clean sacrifice which included, clean beast and clean fowl. He never used the defected beast nor premature fowls as sacrifice and this got the attention of God, the aroma changed God’s mind not the heart of man. In order word, the heart of men still remain wicked but he wouldn’t judge them with destruction nor curse the earth any longer, which implies, the world begins afresh (without a curse)
It’s not about making sacrifices but it’s uniqueness. The quality and the genuineness of the sacrifice is what matters to God. Every sacrifice must be special and different from one another in order to attract God’s attention. Noah presented clean sacrifice and God gladly accepted it. What are you sacrificing to God, profit made from ungodly source? A product of cheat, deceit, murderer, false witness or lies? They attract the anger of God not His blessings. It’s better not to present a sacrifice than to present an unpleasant sacrifice. What are you presenting as your sacrifce and how clean are they?
