To Be Set Apart for Service
1 Chronicles 29:5 “The gold for things of gold, and the silver for things of silver, and for all manner of work to be made by the hands of artificers. And who then is willing to consecrate his service this day unto the LORD?”
consecrate-to make or declare sacred; set apart or dedicate to the service of a deity
Consecrate yourselves unto The Most High.
When you hear that what do you think?? what are the areas of your life that you are still withholding from The Most High? The areas where you are still allowing your flesh mind to control the temple he created for you and sent his Son to redeem back to him.
Is your answer to whatever he may speak to you Yes & so be it?? I guarantee that if you were in service to an earthly king you would have a much harder time with rebellion as it would likely mean your death.
The Most High is patient with us wishing that all would repent. Many times in our lives we get in our own way because we don't understand the ways of the Father. He isn't judging someone or they aren't behaving in the way that we think they should. Again I say do you think that you would take such liberties with an earthly king. If so you are braver than I.
Hebrew 10:16 This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them;17 And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.18 Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.19 Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus,20 By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;21 And having an high priest over the house of God;22 Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.23 Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)24 And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works:25 Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.26 For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,27 But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.28 He that despised Moses' law died without mercy under two or three witnesses:29 Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace?30 For we know him that hath said, Vengeance belongeth unto me, I will recompense, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people.31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
As we have just passed through the Feast of Dedication, now is the time to think about consecration.
