TOPIC: SACRIFICE: Examples Of Sacrifice: Your Service (8)
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:
Romans 12:6-8.
“6. Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, whether prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of faith;”
“7. Or ministry, let us wait on our ministering: or he that teacheth, on teaching;”
“8. Or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that giveth, let him do it with simplicity; he that ruleth, with diligence; he that sheweth mercy, with cheerfulness.”
Thinking Point:
You aren’t gifted for self pleasure alone, your gifts should be a sacrifice to God.
Beloved, I welcome you to a new week. As you appear in Zion today, your sacrifices shall attract God and open every door shut against you in Jesus name, Amen.
Today, we shall be discussing the last form of sacrifice we can offer to God. No man or woman is created empty, God endowed all with special gifts and talent in and out of the church. I am confident of this, you have something special that makes you different from others. This uniqueness is a form of sacrifice to God, either in your office, home, church, ministry and environment, your talent/gift is a form of sacrifice to God, how are you using it?
Apostle Paul was speaking to the Corinthians about the use of their gifts as a sacrifice to God. He admonitions all to use their gift diligently to serve men in order to be a sacrifice to God. When you have the gifts, either spiritual or Physical, and God is not glorified through it, it’s not a sacrifice. When your talents benefits you and doesn’t benefit God, it isn’t a sacrifice. Even in your office, your position should be a sacrifice to God who placed you there. In your marriage see your position as a sacrifice to God and not to your spouse. Everything we do with our lives is a sacrifice but to who do you make your sacrifice, yourself or God? Sacrifice is not just in the church but everywhere we find ourselves. How will your sacrifice be today, will it be acceptable to God? Let your sacrifice be the one that attracts God into your life.
Good Day and God bless you.
