✍️ There is no love without giving, although there may be giving without love John 3:16. If you love God, you will give to Him. Even Satan requires sacrifices from his subjects, how much more God. God is far more lenient with us. Who could go to Satan's shrine without a sacrifice? Nobody dares it, not even his priests. But we go to His house empty handed. Satan, at times, requires human sacrifice, that is if he did not require the head of the person himself. But the Lord is gracious; He does not require from you what He has not given you. There is something you have that if given to God as a sacrifice, the heavens will stand still. May heaven stand-still because of your sacrifice to God today in Jesus Name 🙏.

The reason some of us don't sacrificially give is because of the pain. Sacrifice is painful, but we must endure just like Jesus did. 'Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made Himself of no reputation, and took upon Him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And being found in fashion as a man, He humbled Himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. Wherefore God also hath highly exalted Him, and given Him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should now, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father's. Philippians 2:6-11. Jesus made Himself of no reputation. He endured the cross, despised the shame, humbled Himself, became obedient, even unto death. To crown it all, He laid down His life! What greater sacrifice can there be than this? Because of this, God exalted His name. I prophesy to you🫵 today, anything that will hinder God's visitation to you🫵 before the end of this week, and month catch fire 🔥 now in Jesus Name 🙏.

How easy do you think it is for God to sacrifice His Son, His only Son? Even God sacrificed! Or how easy do you think it is for His Son to sacrifice His Life, His only Life. Then you are not exempted. The first sacrifice is your life, your only life! You must sacrifice it, pour it out for God. No wonder Paul rebuked the church at Jerusalem when they were weeping for him: 'What mean ye to weep and to break my heart? for I am ready not to be bound only, but also to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus'. Acts 21:13. He knew the secret: 'For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel's, the same shall save it'. Mark 8:35.

Solomon sacrificed 22,000 bulls and 120,000 sheep! How many people will kill it, for how many days? How long will they cut and where? It must have disturbed even the earth 🌎 before it disturbed the heaven and God came down personally. If you want God to come down personally on your behalf, you've got to do the ridiculous! If you avoid the pains of sacrifice, you will not benefit from the blessings of sacrifice. Receive the grace of benefiting from sacrificial giving today in Jesus Name 🙏.

God asked Abraham to sacrifice 'your son, your only son, whom thou lovest'. Genesis 22:2. Why didn't He ask him to sacrifice Ishmael, but the one He lovest'? God wants the best in your life not leftovers. That thing that you love! That is why you must be careful about attachments (mammon). What ever God sees your heart is attached to too much, He will ask for it in sacrifice. He is a jealous God. Let nothing be too big that you cannot lose. Let there be no sacred cows in your life that you cannot give out. Cars 🚗, houses 🏘️, time, money 💰, possession, etc. Whatever you cannot give to God is the god of your life. May there be no other god in your life except the Almighty GOD in Jesus Name 🙏.
