“Bring to Yahweh the sacrifice of righteousness and put your trust in him.”Psalms 4:5 TPT
Why do new creations give to God? If they’re truly one with Christ and joint heirs, how does their giving bring prosperity, as we’ve been taught in church? Our opening scripture mentions sacrifice of righteousness. What is it? It involves not only the rightness of the sacrifice but also the attitude, motives, and state of one’s spirit. Sacrifices involve quantity, which is why they’re called sacrifices. They’re statements in the spiritual realm that you’ve arrived.
Imagine a wedding meeting where everyone’s giving about 10 dollars, but then someone starts giving 1000 dollars with joy and celebration. That’s a sacrifice of righteousness. It makes a luxurious and generous ……..[feels incomplete]. It’s the announcement of the arrival of generosity. When God gave, He gave us His very best and everything that He had. John 3:16 AMPC.
The Lord Jesus was a righteous sacrifice; He was offered on the mountain with joy and excitement by the father. “They shall call the peoples to the mountain; There they shall offer sacrifices of righteousness; For they shall partake of the abundance of the seas and of treasures hidden in the sand.”” Deuteronomy 33:19 NKJV.
Mountain is figurative of height in spirit realm; it’s a level of faith of operation of a man who has understood Christ and His message. They shall partake of the abundance of the seas and treasures hidden in the sand; this is what sacrifices of righteousness produce.
These sacrifices aren’t offered in the valley but on a mountain top. They’re a declaration of wealth, not an offering to attract a blessing, yet they attract serious blessings. The Lord wants His children to give their best at every opportunity with love, joy, and celebration, just as the man at the wedding meeting. They’ll walk in untold financial blessing because our giving are keys that open the realms of financial wealth.
CONFESSION
I trust God fully with my resources, knowing that every sacrifice of righteousness brings glory to His name and aligns me with His abundance. I walk in financial favor, spiritual prosperity, and heavenly increase because I give righteously, joyfully, and faithfully. Hallelujah
