Living Sacrifices To God (3)

Writer's picture: GOF MinistryGOF Ministry

Verse of the Day: Romans 12:1

”I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service.“

In the intricate tapestry of Old Testament rituals, the priest played a central role in offering sacrifices. Fast forward to the New Testament, and a profound transformation unfolds – believers are not only referred to as priests but also as the very sacrifices. This unique identity beckons us to consider the responsibility of presenting ourselves as living sacrifices, holy and acceptable to God.


A living sacrifice is not a one-time event; it’s a continual dedication – a life surrendered completely to God. It is a life where God has absolute right of way, a life marked by ongoing consecration. While the word ‘sacrifice’ often conveys the notion of death, what sets you apart as a living sacrifice is the vibrant life of Christ within you. This new life is characterized by holiness.


Your devoted life to God is not only acceptable but also well-pleasing to Him. Picture it as a sweet aroma that delights the senses of the Almighty. Your life, lived in consecration, becomes an offering that ascends to God, capturing His attention and favor.


As you go about your day, remember that you are not merely a priest in the order of believers but also the living sacrifice offered on the altar of consecration. Embrace this identity with reverence and commitment. Let the life of Christ within you radiate through every thought, word, and action, creating a fragrant offering that brings joy to the heart of God.
