TOPIC: WHAT GOD REQUIRED FROM US 6: Mobile Daily Devotional with Pst. Fakunle Emmanuel Week 32, Day 6: Friday, 5 August, 2022. TOPIC: WHAT GOD REQUIRED FROM US 6:

“6 “A son honors his father, And a servant his master. If then I am the Father, Where is My honor? And if I am a Master, Where is My reverence? Says the LORD of hosts To you priests who despise My name.Yet you say, ‘In what way have we despised Your name?’

God requires that we Honour Him, Reverence Him as Father and as our God. What does it involves to Honour God? Who you honour you don’t disrespect, you listen to Him/Her. To Honour God is to do His will concerning us. The fear of God, (reverence) is another prove of honouring God. What He despise, you don’t do. 

Reading through Malachi chapter 1, God revealed how we dishonoured Him with unacceptable sacrifices,

“7 “You offer defiled food on My altar, But say, ‘In what way have we defiled You?’ By saying, ‘The table of the LORD is contemptible.’ 8 And when you offer the blind as a sacrifice, Is it not evil? And when you offer the lame and sick, Is it not evil? Offer it then to your governor! Would he be pleased with you?  Would he accept you favorably?” Says the LORD of hosts.”

Most of our offerings are detestable to God. We give God offerings we can’t use as Gift to people. We present some offerings to gain glory in the sight of men and not giving God Glory. Our offerings are presented reluctantly most times, we see it as giving to Men of God and not God. Are you Honouring God with your offerings or honouring men? Is your offering equivalent to what God has done for you? Does your offering Reverence God as the Almighty?

God wants us to Honour Him with our offerings not to honouring men.

God Bless you and Good Morning.

Happy Birthday to all celebrants and Happy Wedding Anniversary to those celebrating today. May you experience God’s fruitfulness in Jesus Mighty name, Amen.
