The only sacrifice required!
Praise is the only sacrifice required! Sometimes we think God value and desire tangible things that we possess, we break an arm and a leg thinking that God is pleased by the tangible things we give to the poor and things we bless His servants and others, none of that is bad. However, without praise in our hearts we are only doing those sacrifices with a religious spirit not out of the relationship we have with Jesus! Nevertheless, having this attitude of praise that we give, sacrifice and offer because God did it first! Israelites used to sacrifice bulls, lambs and goats, but God is no longer desiring any blood for sacrifice, because He has already done it for us. Now God only requires our sacrifices of praise! No King is a king without receiving praise, for without praise the King is not well pleased. Whatever you praise is where you belong, in Jesus Christ we also belong and claim our citizenship in, with the fruit of our lips, which is praise!
[ Therefore, let us offer through Jesus a continual sacrifice of praise to God, proclaiming our allegiance to his name. ]
(Hebrews 13:15)
