THE SIGNIFICANCE OF ALTAR. 🔥🙏🏾🔥
In order to live by faith, we must first built an altar. In the Bible, an altar means that we have all for God and serve God all the way, ie, we offer everything we are and have to God. No Reservations. Most of us have altars in our homes, some of us neglect it, some undermine it, some approach it with or without faith, some maintain it, some oil it, some offer sacrifice, some the light is off, and some totally ignore and some don't have at all. We must have an altar to make our worship complete, to enable us offer God true worship. Between Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, there is about 11 Altars:
1: Gen.12:6-7, Altar Of Hope
2: Gen. 12::8, House Of God Altar. Bethel
3: Gen.13:3, Altar Of Prayer.
4: Gen.13: 18, Altar Of Communion.
5: Gen.21:33, Eternal God Altar
6: Gen.22:9, Altar Of Sacrifice
7: Gen. 26:24-25, Altar Of His Presence
8: Gen.28:18, House Of God Altar.
9: Gen.33:20, God Of Israel Altar. El elohe
10: Gen.35:7 God Of The House Of God Altar. El Bethel.
11: Gen. 35:14, House Of God Altar, Bethel.
This are all physical Altars erected by the patriarchs with deep spiritual insights, we too need altars both spiritual and physical, to enhance our prayers and relationship with God. Think about this: The pagans, The cults, the witchcrafts, even unbelievers, name them, have one altar or the other. It's only Christians or believers that toy with the importance of Altars.
Altars In the new testament:
1: Altar-- a place of sacrifice.
2: Sacrifice to be placed-- The Perfect God-man, Christ Jesus, The Lamb of God. Philippians 2:8.
3: We are the ALTARS. Rom. 12:1
4: As Altars, we offer God; Living Sacrifice. Heb. 13:15.
Child of God, altars is not for baby Christians. It's God's personal intervention in our life that necessitate the raising of Altar. All the altars raised by Abraham, Isaac and Jacob came as a result of one encounter or the other. The result of raising altar is humbling of our personality and exalting the greater knowledge of God.
As you raise this Altar, your house is now the house of God, your life is now the temple of God, and all that you are now belongs to God, therefore that house, your life, the you in you must not be misused, defiled or abused.
Finally; this is what we should do, God helping us: take your everyday ordinary life---your sleeping, eating, going to work, prayers and walking--around life, and place it before God as an OFFERING. Beloved, embracing what God does for you is the best thing you can do for Him. May God give us spiritual understanding and grace to comply in Jesus Christ name Amen. This exercise will give you a wholesome experience, it's an act of commitment to God. Remain blessed in Jesus name Amen. Good morning and have a blessed Sunday. End of part one concerning altars.
