SACRIFICES OF THE PRIEST
Recap: Marketplace ministry
In this episode we talk about Sacrifices of the believer (priest)
● OUR BODIES, OUR LIVES. Romans 12v1-2, 1 Corinthians 6v20, 2 Corinthians 7v1, 1 John 3v16.
● OUR PRAISE. Read Hebrew 13v15. In the New Testament our acts of worship praise and
thanksgiving are not based on feelings. Not based on our circumstance but in spite of our
circumstances. That is when it becomes sacrificial.
● OUR MONEY (SUBSTANCES). Hebrew 13v16 16 But do not forget to do good and to share, for with
such sacrifices God is well pleased. Part of our money is reserved for the less privileged and the
work of God.
● OUR GIFT. You are created uniquely for a purpose (Psalms 139). There is an assignment for you
fulfil. The gifts will include your intellect, Physical and spiritual gifts.
These are investments that God wants you to trade with and bring return on investment
Jesus said occupy till I come in Luke 19v13. Also, the parable of talents in Matthew 25v14 reveals that we will give account of all that God gives us.
CONCLUSION
“What you are is God’s gift to you, what you become is your gift to God.” ― Hans Urs von Balthasar
Which gift have you left unattended? What are you going to do tell the master when you see him? What
are you going to do to bring it back?
