THE ULTIMATE SACRIFICE

What is Ultimate Sacrifice?

This is a point of sacrifice where you can give anything or any amount for the Kingdom. It is a place where you can give your all - house, car, money, time and even life for the Kingdom of God to be established on earth.

Ultimate Sacrifice is when you love God to the point that nothing means anything to you, it is a point where you see life the way Christ sees it to be. it is a point where nothing can stand between you and God. A point where you are ready to do anything for your faith in Christ. This is a place of true sacrifice, a place where real life starts.

Once you get to this point, God can do anything through you and can entrust His riches into your hands and He will carry you like a diamond. Like the midwives in

EXODUS 1:15-21

And the King of Egypt spake to the Hebrew midwives, of which the name of the one was Shiphrah, and the name of the other Puah. Vs. 15
And he said, when ye do the office of a midwife to the Hebrew women, and see them upon the stools, if it be a son, then ye shall kill him but if it be a daughter then she shall live. Vs. 16
But the midwives feared God and did not do as the King of Egypt commanded, but let the male babies live. Vs 17
And the King of Egypt called for the midwives and said unto them, why have you done this thing and have saved the male children alive? Vs. 18
And the midwives said unto Pharaoh, Because the Hebrew women are not as the Egyptian women for they are lively and are delivered before the midwives come in unto them. Vs. 19
Therefore God dealt well with the midwives and the people multiplied and became very strong. Vs. 20
And because the midwives feared God, he gave them families. Vs. 21

This is another laudable virtue in the midwives, they were ready to die for what they believed was right for the sake of Christ. It was an ultimate sacrifice, because of their ultimate sacrifice, God blessed them and multiplied their families.

For you to follow the Lord at all, you must be ready to sacrifice for the Kingdom at all times. The extent of the sacrifice is what you have to determine.

some people can sacrifice their time but not their money, some people can sacrifice their intellect but not their time, some people can sacrifice their old clothes but not their new clothes, some people can sacrifice their millions for something else but not the work of God. Some people can sacrifice all their material possession but not their lives.

ROMANS 12:1

I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable sacrifice. Vs. 1

Any sacrifice that you are giving to God must be presentable, holy, acceptable and reasonable unto God.
