Offering of Relationship


One of the great truths of God’s Word is that He loves us, and desires to be in an intimate relationship with us. Let’s finish our study on offering today learning how to know Him more.

Your relationship with God is an offering found in Mark 12:33. To love him with all your heart, with all your understanding and with all your strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself is more important than all burnt offerings and sacrifices.”

Your relationship with others is found in Matthew 5:23. “Therefore, if you are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that your brother or sister has something against you, leave your gift there in front of the altar. First go and be reconciled to them; then come and offer your gift.

Your great offering to God is your life. Look at 1 Peter 2:5; you also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house [Or into a temple of the Spirit] to be a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.

How is your relationship?

What is your offering?

Be wise today consider your offering.
