When we offer our
bodies as living sacrifices; our future, our plans, our possessions, and our
lives, to the Lord -- His glory begins to be revealed as His Spirit works in
and through us - if want to see the glory of God filling every aspect of your
life then lay your life upon the altar in surrender to His perfect will -- you
will watch in amazement as He takes your offering and turns it to a beautiful
testimony of His glory!

“Also King Solomon,
and all the congregation of Israel who were assembled with him before the ark,
were sacrificing sheep and oxen that could not be counted or numbered for
multitude. 13 indeed it came to pass, when the
trumpeters and singers were as one, to make one sound to be heard in praising
and thanking the Lord, and when they lifted up their voice with the trumpets
and cymbals and instruments of music, and praised the Lord, saying: "For
He is good, For His mercy endures forever," that the house, the house of
the Lord, was filled with a cloud, 14 so that the priests could not
continue ministering because of the cloud; for the glory of the Lord filled the
house of God.” - 2 Chronicles 5:6,13,14
Three
thousand years ago, when Solomon dedicated the Temple to God, the priests
offered up thousands of sacrifices.
The
glory of God was so thick and heavy that the priests could no longer minister!
Do
you see the connection?
First
the offerings -- THEN the glory fell!
But
this reality is not found only in the Old Covenant; it's also in the New
Covenant.
After
Messiah was sacrificed as the offering for the sins of the world at Calvary --
came the resurrection, the Son of God, risen and glorified!
So
clearly, there’s an integral relationship between sacrifice and glory!
Can
we see this relationship still operating even today? I believe we can.
When
we offer our bodies as living sacrifices; our future, our plans, our
possessions, and our lives, to the Lord -- His glory begins to be revealed as
His Spirit works in and through us.
Called
by Him to be more and more like Yeshua (Jesus), the people of God should be a
people of sacrifice.
Do
you want to see the glory of God filling every aspect of your life?
Then
lay your life upon the altar in surrender to His perfect will -- you will watch
in amazement as He takes your offering and turns it to a beautiful testimony of
His glory!
