Psalms 50:5 "Gather my saints together unto me; those that have made a covenant with me by sacrifice."
Another covenant access to divine Presence I want us to examine today is SACRIFICE.
Everyone that ever commands the attention of God in the scriptures and even in our contemporary world does so on the platform of sacrifice. His abiding Presence in our life is a covenant. You have a part to play and until your part is played, He's not committed.
Sacrifice is going beyond your best to please God. It is not just giving your best, doing your best, praying your best, but going beyond your best that makes up a sacrifice.
Solomon understood this key. He triggered an undeniable Presence of God that led to his undeniable encounter with God and God gave him not only what he wanted but all he needed (1King 3:3-15). This shall be your testimony before the year is over in Jesus Name.
Noah’s sacrifice triggered the favour of the Lord and of course His Presence because he offered to God the clean animals. (Gen 8:20-22). He could have offered the unclean animals, after all, it was in his power to do so. Offering the clean animals leaving the unclean is beyond his best.
In the bible, no priest appeared in His presence empty. Jesus gave Himself as sacrifice to take us back to the Presence of God. Sacrifice will eternally be relevant in the kingdom. It shows your love for Him in action. Offer your best of time, money, materials, talent, gift etc for the furtherance of the gospel and you are on key to enjoying His continuous Presence!
Rise up now and act!
PRAYER: You will not miss your own portion of blessing this season in Jesus name.
