TOPIC: GOD HONOUR SACRIFICES: King Solomon’s Sacrifice (7)
MEMORY VERSE:
Psalms 4:5
“5. Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put your trust in the LORD.”
BIBLE READING:
1 Kings 3:3-5.
“3. And Solomon loved the LORD, walking in the statutes of David his father: only he sacrificed and burnt incense in high places.
4. And the king went to Gibeon to sacrifice there; for that was the great high place: a thousand burnt offerings did Solomon offer upon that altar.
5. In Gibeon the LORD appeared to Solomon in a dream by night: and God said, Ask what I shall give thee.
Happy weekend to everyone reading and following our devotional, May God keep making His mind known to us all in Jesus Mighty Name, amen. Today, our focus will be King Solomon’s Sacrifice. What prompted his sacrifice? It was gratitude to God for finding him worthy to ascend his father’s throne despite his background. This sacrifice was a product of appreciation so it was very deep and very great. If you’ve experienced what i’m saying you will know better. What you never fought for was given to you without asking or struggling for it, I believe you will give God the best of your appreciation. That was the case with Solomon, the scripture said, he sacrificed thousands of burnt offering to the Lord and do we see the result? It brings God’s full attention to Him. God visited Solomon twice in His life time and these made him the greatest king in the world till date.
You don’t need to see that desires becoming reality before giving God a befitting sacrifice. The contract don’t need to click before your sacrifice. Fruit of the womb shouldn’t determine when you will give God your best Sacrifice, it’s time to do it. Genuine Sacrifice attract God’s full attention and beyond expectations are met. Give God a better Sacrifice this month and you’ll be seeing the reward flowing into your life.
Good Day and God bless you.
