SACRIFICIAL LIFE

SACRIFICIAL LIFE

Romans 12:1-5 
Dev:- “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” (v. 1)


    For us to be consecrated to the Lord we must live a sacrificial life. A sacrificial life is a life that is offered unto God as a sacrifice. This is a life that is completely given to the Lord. It is a life that is completely handed over to God and no longer belong to you.

In the Old Testament a sacrificed life has to be killed. So when an animal is sacrificed to the Lord, the priest will kill the animal and set it on the altar to burn it unto God. Then God will smell the smoke of the burnt animal that ascend to heaven and will accept the sacrifice. 

In the New Testament we are asked to be a living sacrifice. This is because Jesus died to remove death from our sacrificial life. To be sacrificed unto God demands that we are dead to sin and self but alive only to live for God (Romans 6:1-5). That is why you can no longer live as you like (Romans 6:6-7). You can no longer decide for yourself but your new owner. We have been crucify with Christ, the life we live now must be lived as belonging God (Galatians 2:20). You must therefore obey him always. Peace 

Prayer: Lord, give me the grace to live a sacrificial life.
