God Cares How You Give, Not What You Give BY RICK WARREN — OCTOBER 12, 2022 FROM RADICALIS: DEVELOPING SPIRITUAL ROOTS “By faith Abel brought God a better offering than Cain did. By faith he was commended as righteous, when God spoke well of his offerings” Hebrews 11:4 (NIV) It’s interesting that the first person who gets mentioned in Hebrews 11’s “Faith Hall of Fame” is Abel, one of Adam and Eve’s sons. What did Abel do that caused him to be included alongside Moses and Abraham and other significant biblical heroes in Hebrews 11? As far as we know, Abel never did anything great. He never took any major risks. But he gave an offering in faith, and that pleased God. It’s not what Abel gave; it’s how he gave it. Abel gave with an attitude of faith. Hebrews 11:4 says, “By faith Abel brought God a better offering than Cain did. By faith he was commended as righteous, when God spoke well of his offerings” (NIV). Giving and faith go together. God couldn’t care less about the amount you give. God doesn’t need your money. He wants your heart. In fact, if you’re not giving in faith, don’t give. The Bible says, “Without faith it is impossible to please God” (Hebrews 11:6 NIV). There are two ways to give: You can give by reason, or you can give by revelation. To give by reason is to sit down, look at the numbers, and figure out reasonably what you think it makes sense to give. But that approach doesn’t require any faith at all. When you give by revelation, on the other hand, you let God reveal to you what he wants you to give in faith. You stop and take time to pray, asking, “God, how much do you want me to trust you for this time?” Then you do whatever he tells you to do. This is the kind of giving that stretches your faith because it’s not necessarily reasonable. It’s giving based on revelation. In the Bible, there were a group of early Christians that gave by revelation, not by reason. They lived in Macedonia, the same part of Greece that Alexander the Great came from. The Macedonian church had been through hard times and was extremely impoverished. Yet, when they heard that the church at Jerusalem needed help, they gave a sacrificial gift. Though the Macedonians had very little money themselves, they gave in faith to help their fellow Christians. Paul says this about them: “They have been tested by great troubles, and they are very poor. But they gave much because of their great joy” (2 Corinthians 8:2 NCV). Did you notice why the Macedonians gave? Did they give out of guilt? No, they gave “because of their great joy.” When you give in faith, you give with joy. And, as a result of your joyous, faithful giving, you grow and ultimately become more like Christ!

Tues. Feb. 7th FAITH DEFLATES THE ARROGANCE OF SATAN II Hebrews 11:4 Bible in a Year: Lev. 22-23 If we want our offerings to be more acceptable to God and thereby attract more rewards, there are few lessons we can learn from Abel's offering. • He gave his offering by faith. He didn't see God. There was no glory cloud present. There was no church building. No preacher. No Pastor to scrutinize how much he was giving. No mass choir singing to put him in the mood. When he offered the sacrifice, it was not transported to heaven. And fire didn't fall from heaven either. He did it all by faith. • God pays special attention to a person's offering (God testified of Abel's gifts). An angel told Cornelius, “All of your prayers and your generosity to the poor have ascended before God as an eternal offering”. Acts 10:4 • Offering before God are not the same in terms of their value or quality. Some are excellent. Some are insulting. • Offerings reveal the state of our hearts. They reveal how much honour and respect we have for God. • Offerings have a voice in the courts of heaven. They can sway heaven's verdict in a man's favour. • The impact of our offerings outlive us. The blessing that comes with giving cannot be stopped even by death. Though, it (his sacrifice) he being dead still speaks. Prayer: Let the grace for generosity and liberality rest on me. #daily #dailydivineencounter #dailydevotional #devotion #devotionals #prayer #meditation #blessings #ctcfc #drjohnakpami #drclaraakpami #bishopmikekpami Dr. John Akpami Dr. Clara Akpami Bishop Mike Akpami

Jesus Is The Lamb February 8th, 2023 03:27:09

The Precious Blood of Christ, God's Perfect Plan For Atonement! Why did God have to become human and die to forgive our sins? In Leviticus 17:11, God points out that a certain part of His redemption plan would bring "atonement". It says: "For the life of the flesh is in the blood; and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls; for it is the blood that makes an atonement for the soul." The word, atonement, means, "to cover". This provision of God was the way He provided in order for human beings to be FORGIVEN for sin. This is why the Old Testament begins dealing with the subject of sacrificial offerings so early in its pages. This redemption plan was well illustrated in the account of the sacrifices of Cain and Abel in Genesis chapter 4. God had obviously revealed this plan to them, for the Bible records that they both knew and understood that God had asked them to offer a sacrifice so that God would forgive their sin. The difference between them was in how they responded to God's specific instructions for receiving that forgiveness. Abel pleased God when he put a lamb from his flock of sheep on an altar, shedding its blood. By following God's directions to make this sacrifice, he demonstrated that he was trusting in God's plan to provide an atonement covering for his sin. He showed he had faith in God by being obedient to God's plan. Because of Abel's trust, God accepted his sacrifice and granted Abel the gift of salvation. Does the Bible clearly declare that Abel was saved and is in Heaven now? Yes! In Hebrews 11:4 it is written: "By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts; and by it, he, being dead, yet speaks." Why does he, being dead, yet speak? Because even though he had died physically, he now lives forever in God's presence, having received salvation. Cain, however, did not accept God's plan. He did not appreciate God's provision of blood Atonement. Instead, he had his own idea for how to regain fellowship with God. Cain put the fruit of the ground, (vegetables, fruit, and grain), on his altar. He apparently figured that God would see his good work and accept him. By doing things his own way, he demonstrated that he did not have respect for God's plan. He did not acknowledge that he was a sinner who needed atonement, so God did not respect or accept Cain's sacrifice. Cain did not receive the gift. He did not obtain witness that he was righteous, as Abel had. Since his sins were not covered by the atoning blood, he did not receive eternal life. Hebrews 9:22 says, "without the shedding of blood there is no remission of sin." ("remission" means forgiveness.) Incidentally, all man-made religions seek fellowship with God by Cain's plan. In other words, a man-made approach to God is one that seeks to come to God by virtue of man's own efforts, by man's own good works. The only problem is, humans are born spiritually dead to God, separated from Him, and nothing a human can do can overcome this. God knew this, and He inspired Proverbs 16:25 - "There is a way that seems right to a man, but the end thereof is the way of death." In Exodus God instructed Moses to build a Tabernacle in the wilderness, and established the Levite men to serve as priests in the administration of an organized system of daily sacrifices. The people were instructed to bring their sacrificial offerings to the priests who would present them before God for atonement. Although this was the established system, it was always required that the offerers came in faith, repenting their sins. (Leviticus 1:2-4) For example, when the people of Israel, in the days of Amos the prophet, were unfaithful and unrepentant, their sacrifices were no longer accepted by God. (Amos 5:21 - 22) Acceptable sacrifices were brought to the tabernacle by people who were sorry for their sins. The person bringing the animal would place his hand on its head. God made it clear that by doing this, with trust in God's plan, (faith), then God would look at the animal as if the man's sins had now been transferred onto it. The animal would then be killed. God required his people to do this so that they would understand how He must punish their sin. The animal would substitute for the sinner in the taking of the punishment, which was death. Romans 6:23a - "For the wages of sin is death." With the sin punished, the sinner was pardoned. The blood of the offering covered the sin. In exchange, the guilty sinner was declared not guilty because the debt for sin had been covered. All through the Old Testament, people were offering sacrifices to God on altars. But they were offered over and over and over again. Why did so much blood have to be shed? Hebrews 10:4 gives the answer . . . "For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should TAKE AWAY sins." Animals ARE NOT EQUAL in value to human beings. For this reason, they were not PERFECT substitutes to take the punishment for human beings in atonement. God, in His mercy, only allowed the blood of animal sacrifices to COVER sin during the Old Testament time of history. Because they were not perfect substitutes, these sacrifices had to be made again and AGAIN for every sin. This would be the way it was, until God would finish His plan by sending a perfect atonement offering to us, Jesus! By incarnation, He became the "God-Man". As the Son of God lived and walked on this earth that He Himself had created, He never sinned. This meant that he was the only sinless human being who ever lived. Understand this: the animal sacrifices were allowed to be substitutes because they were innocent of sin themselves. But they were not perfect substitutes because they were not human. Now God himself was able to be BOTH human and PERFECTLY SINLESS at the same time. Because of this, He, the Son of God, was the ONLY perfect substitute sacrifice who has ever existed. God had used all of those Old Testament sacrifices to point the way to His perfect SON. John the Baptizer recognized this when he saw Jesus and said, "Behold the Lamb of God, which TAKES AWAY the sin of the world." (John 1:29) As the LAMB, Jesus, the Son of God, was indeed the perfect atonement. On the cross when Jesus died, He cried out, "It is FINISHED!" (John 19:30) He meant that the work of atonement was now completely DONE. His suffering and shed blood was perfect, so it only had to be poured out ONE TIME in history. Hebrews 10:12 puts it this way . . . "But this man, (Jesus), after He had offered ONE sacrifice for sins FOREVER, sat down on the right hand of God." Why did He sit down? Because the job of giving atonement to men was now DONE! It would never again need to be repeated. NEVER. He was the perfect atonement who did not just cover sin, He WASHED SIN AWAY with His blood. (Revelation 1:5) At that moment Jesus died on the cross, the benefits of His perfect atoning work were made retroactive for all those Old Testament people who had the faith to trust in God's plan and obey His instructions. They are SAVED. In the same instant, Jesus' blood became the atonement for the sins of every person who would trust Him in that day, and every person who would trust Him in the future. In other words, His atoning work has become available to all men. Romans 5:8 and 9 tells us; "But God demonstrated His love toward us in that, while we were STILL sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now justified (declared not guilty) by HIS BLOOD, we shall be saved from WRATH through HIM." The fact that Jesus did not remain dead after He was crucified, but that He ROSE AGAIN, is THE PROOF that His precious BLOOD was sufficient to wash away all of our sins, IF we TRUST HIM FOR IT. Romans 4:25 tells us that He was the ONE "who was delivered for our offenses, and was RAISED AGAIN for our justification." "In Him also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestined according to the purpose of Him who works all things according to the counsel of His will, that we who first trusted in Christ should be to the praise of His glory. In Him you also trusted, after you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation; in whom also, having believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise, who is the guarantee of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, to the praise of His glory." (Ephesians 1:11 - 14) "Unto Him that LOVED us, and WASHED us from our sins in His own BLOOD . . . to HIM be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen!"
