I GIVE YOU MY VERY BEST DEAR FATHER

Post date: Feb 7, 2018 12:00:53 AM

God knows you are thinking of things to give to Him and He appreciates your thoughts; He knows you have given many things in His name before and He respects your gift, but He is asking that you do not withhold your best from Him. God will never reject your true best gift to Him; He will not ignore it and He will not fail to give His appropriate and commensurate reward. God is not asking for a gift to satisfy a need because He has none, but He is asking for a gift to satisfy your need because you have many and will never be able to satisfy all of them. “You do not desire a sacrifice, or I would offer one. You do not want a burnt offering. The sacrifice you desire is a broken spirit. You will not reject a broken and repentant heart, O God. He calls on the heavens above and earth below to witness the judgment of his people. Bring my faithful people to me those who made a covenant with me by giving sacrifices. Then let the heavens proclaim his justice, for God himself will be the judge. O my people listen as I speak. Here are my charges against you, O Israel: I am God, your God. I have no complaint about your sacrifices or the burnt offerings you constantly offer. But I do not need the bulls from your barns or the goats from your pens. For all the animals of the forest are mine and I own the cattle on a thousand hills; I know every bird on the mountains, and all the animals of the field are mine. If I were hungry, I would not tell you, for all the world is mine and everything in it. Do I eat the meat of bulls? Do I drink the blood of goats? Make thankfulness your sacrifice to God, and keep the vows you made to the Most High. Then call on me when you are in trouble, and I will rescue you and you will give me glory.” Psalm 51:16-17; 50:4-15

Your best golden gift to God is not far from your reach; it is not hidden in any secluded places, it does not require any assistance to get them; it is not something you do not have, and it does not take you years to make them available in His hands; it will definitely take you seconds when you are determined and bold enough in your decision. Though God is sufficient in all things, He will definitely appreciate this best golden gift from you with open hands and He will definitely give you an immeasurable reward immediately after. That best golden gift that God is asking from you today is not your money irrespective of your wealth or the amount you desire to give and it is definitely not what does not belong to you right now. Did you know that before the Almighty you are more important than anything else you have and will ever have; your whole body is more important and your heart is more important than your sacrifices? The most important golden gift in your hands right now that you will ever or can ever give to God is yourself, your whole body, your heart, your thoughts, and every word that will ever proceed out of your mouth irrespective of your wealth, knowledge, wisdom, education, location, gender, color, and the power in the job or office you currently have or occupy. The Lord Almighty is asking for you and He is looking for you. You are His most valuable demand and He wants to make you His most valuable asset. He wants you on His alter irrespective of your religion and affiliations, He is ready to wash you clean, ready to make you pure, ready to make you useful and profitable, ready to make you holy, ready to justify you, ready to take every form of condemnation and rejection away, ready to make you an instrument of His praise and He is ready to be your God, defending you, delivering you, healing you and blessing you in all situations and in all locations. Your thanksgiving is good and praises are acceptable before Him but your whole body is far better and more acceptable to Him; your sacrificial offerings are good and acceptable before Him, but your whole body, your whole heart, your thoughts, and your words are more valuable to Him and He will gladly accept them first. When God receives the body you offer to Him, He will honor all of your sacrifices thereafter; He will rejoice at your daily thanksgiving and songs of praise; He will reward and He will defend you and prosper you and He will keep you safe and blessed.
