We have realized that we are priests of God, mandated by God to offer up Spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God by Christ Jesus! But, what are these sacrifices? In the Old testament, they had sacrifices of different sorts: bulls, calves, rams, flour, etc. But, today, in the New testament, we have been called to offer the sacrifices of praise by making Confessions unto his name - Hebrews 13:15.
Confession-Sacrifices
Hebrews 13:15, ' By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name'. The phrase, 'Giving thanks' is from the Greek word, 'Homologeo', which means to, 'to offer praises by agreeing and attesting to what one has said and done'. You know, when I say that the best way to praise God is by declaring what you are in him, not what you are without him, many are chagrined. But, the truth is by declaring what we ARE in him; we make the right confessions which are our sacrifices of praise! So, today and always declare who you are in Christ, that's a well pleasing sacrifice in Christ! #Thanksgiving #GreaterGlory
