Daily Offerings

Numbers 28: This passage talks about the different type of offerings--daily, sabbath, monthly, passover, feast of weeks. Reading this made me think about how much God demands of us. We're talkin' significant amounts of sheep, goats, bulls, and wheat! DAILY! And then there's special offerings in addition to daily offerings.

It also made me think about how things shouldn't be different today. If God is the same yesterday, today, and forever then the devotion, offerings, and praise He deserves should not change (definitely not decrease) either.

If God once required regular sacrifice, where is our sacrifice today?
It is overlooked and forgotten, forsaken by grace abusers
for God has made His demand clear: our lives are the daily sacrifice
Our every breath and moment is supposed to be offered to God.
Romans 12:1-2
1 I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. 2 Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect
