A Fragrant Offering

choose your own language

(2025.1.22 Pray and receive the Lord’s words)

Let your offering be of a pleasing aroma, pleasing to me;

You should think about whether what you offer to me emits a sweet aroma? Is it a sacrifice that I am pleased with? Is what you offer free from the impurities of the world? Is it devoted to loving Me alone, unstained by defilement, pure and holy?

In the past, the sacrifices that were acceptable to me were animals that were intact and without blemish, and the best of them were offered to me. Now, you must also offer yourself completely, without blemish—that is, without sin. Your spiritual life should be strong, full of strength, adorned with My glory, the best, holy, and set apart from the world. Only by offering yourself in this way can you be acceptable to Me, for I am a holy God. The spiritual sacrifice you present must be like this, exuding a fragrant aroma.

How can a fragrant offering be presented?You should first examine yourself to see if you are doing what is right in my eyes and walking in the path of righteousness;

If you have deviated, strayed from My truth, and are not walking in the path of righteousness, you must first confess and repent, so that you can be clean and free from filth. In constant reflection, you must remove your sins one by one.

Just as My people must wear garments of white in spirit, any impurity must be cleansed by truth. Strive to live according to My Word and bear the fruit of the Spirit.

Abide in Me, conducting yourself as if under the light of the sun, avoiding deeds of darkness that bear no fruit. Let your actions be blameless, born of truth, so that you may resemble Me, becoming children of light and glorifying My name.

You who belong to me should be a royal priesthood, offering a fragrant aroma, free from worldly impurities, as heavenly spiritual offerings, always with praise, thanksgiving and prayer; May you come before me in the splendor of holiness. , glorify my name, for my name is glorious and honorable and worthy to be praised forever;

Scripture 

Ezekiel Chapter 20, Verses 38 to 42

“I will purge the rebels from among you, and those who transgress against Me; I will bring them out of the land where they dwell, but they shall not enter the land of Israel. Then you will know that I am the Lord.

“As for you, O house of Israel,” thus says the Lord God: “Go, serve every one of you his idols—and hereafter—if you will not obey Me; but profane My holy name no more with your gifts and your idols. For on My holy mountain, on the mountain height of Israel,” says the Lord God, “there all the house of Israel, all of them in the land, shall serve Me; there I will accept them, and there I will require your offerings and the firstfruits of your sacrifices, together with all your holy things. I will accept you as a sweet aroma when I bring you out from the peoples and gather you out of the countries where you have been scattered, and I will be hallowed in you before the Gentiles. Then you shall know that I am the Lord, when I bring you into the land of Israel, into the country for which I raised My hand in an oath to give to your fathers.”

Ephesians Chapter 5, Verses 1 to 5, 8 to 10, 15 to 20

“Therefore be imitators of God as dear children. And walk in love, as Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling aroma.

But fornication and all uncleanness or covetousness, let it not even be named among you, as is fitting for saints; neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor coarse jesting, which are not fitting, but rather giving of thanks. For this you know, that no fornicator, unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God.

For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light (for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness, righteousness, and truth), finding out what is acceptable to the Lord.

See then that you walk circumspectly, not as fools but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is. And do not be drunk with wine, in which is dissipation; but be filled with the Spirit, speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord, giving thanks always for all things to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.”

Romans Chapter 12, Verses 1 to 2

“I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.”

Revelation Chapter 5, Verses 6 to 13

“And I looked, and behold, in the midst of the throne and of the four living creatures, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as though it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent out into all the earth. Then He came and took the scroll out of the right hand of Him who sat on the throne.

Now when He had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each having a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints. And they sang a new song, saying:

‘You are worthy to take the scroll,

And to open its seals;

For You were slain,

And have redeemed us to God by Your blood

Out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation,

And have made us kings and priests to our God;

And we shall reign on the earth.’

Then I looked, and I heard the voice of many angels around the throne, the living creatures, and the elders; and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands, saying with a loud voice:

‘Worthy is the Lamb who was slain

To receive power and riches and wisdom,

And strength and honor and glory and blessing!’

And every creature which is in heaven and on the earth and under the earth and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, I heard saying:

‘Blessing and honor and glory and power

Be to Him who sits on the throne,

And to the Lamb, forever and ever!’”
