*FAITH AND SACRIFICE*

*PASTOR CHRIS OYAHKILOME*

*MONDAY, 13TH JANUARY 2025*

_*Who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions (Hebrews 11:33).*_

In 1 Kings 3, we read about Solomon offering one thousand burnt offerings to God. As a result, God appeared to him that night and said, _*"...Ask what I shall give thee"*_ (1 Kings 3:5). Solomon was only required to offer one burnt offering, but he went above and beyond, offering a thousand. As a result, he received divine attention.

Realizing the power of his offering, the next time he was to offer oblation to the Lord, he made it 22,000 burnt offerings. And once again, God responded by speaking to him and granting him promises. Also consider the example of Noah in Genesis 8. After the Flood, Noah's first act was to build an altar and offer burnt offerings of every clean beast and bird. The Bible says, _*"And the LORD smelled a sweet savour..."*_ and as a result, God made a promise: _*"...I will not again curse the ground any more for man's sake..."*_ (Genesis 8:21).

Noah's offering was like incense rising to heaven, a sweet-smelling aroma for which God released promises and blessings for Noah and his sons, giving them dominion over all the earth: _*"...Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth...into your hand are they delivered"*_ (Genesis 9:1-2).

Similarly, the Lord Jesus obtained promises through His sacrificial death for us on the Cross. Following His obedience and vicarious sacrifice, the Bible says,
_*"Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name"*_ (Philippians 2:9). Jesus obtained dominion over all because He was obedient in offering Himself.

The Bible speaks of others who also obtained promises through their faith and actions as read in our opening scripture. The Greek word for promise in that verse is "epaggelia," which means to get an announcement of something good that God has given you. This principle remains the same; you too can cause God to announce something good for you through your sacrificial offering, through the power of faith and the principle of sacrifice. It's one of the reasons why giving to God is so important. You can be praying and He'll say something to you in your spirit just as in the examples above. Hallelujah!

*PRAYER*
*Dear Father, I thank you for the power of faith and the principle of sacrifice. I walk in your grace today for answered prayers. My oblations of faith and righteousness rise as a sweet-smelling savour to you, and I walk in the fulfilment of your promises in my life. I live in dominion and walk in the victory of your Word, in Jesus' Name. Amen.*

*PRAYER OF SALVATION*
*“O Lord God, I believe with all my heart in Jesus Christ, Son of the living God. I believe He died for me and God raised Him from the dead. I believe He’s alive today. I confess with my mouth that Jesus Christ is the Lord of my life from this day. Through Him and in His Name, I have eternal life; I’m born again. Thank you Lord, for saving my soul! I’m now a child of God. Hallelujah!”*


*FURTHER STUDY=>*
*||* *Genesis 8:20-22* And Noah builded an altar unto the LORD; and took of every clean beast, and of every clean fowl, and offered burnt offerings on the altar. 21 And the LORD smelled a sweet savour; and the LORD said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for man's sake; for the imagination of man's heart [is] evil from his youth; neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done. 22 While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease. *||*

*||* *1 Kings 3:5* In Gibeon the LORD appeared to Solomon in a dream by night: and God said, Ask what I shall give thee. *||*

*||* *Philippians 2:8-9* And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. 9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: *||*
