In the New Testament, we are an offering to the Lord!

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 service.

Daily we offer ourselves to God to serve HIM that day as HE wills.

 

It is most certainly "our reasonable service."

 

God gave us a new heart and a new spirit so we could serve HIM.  God recreated us inside in HIS images as sons and daughters.  God made us into new creatures.

 

Ezekiel 36

 

23 And I will sanctify my great name, which was profaned among the heathen, which ye have profaned in the midst of them; and the heathen shall know that I am the LORD, saith the Lord GOD, when I shall be sanctified in you before their eyes.

 

24 For I will take you from among the heathen, and gather you out of all countries, and will bring you into your own land.

 

25 Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you.

 

26 A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.

 

27 And I will put MY spirit within you, and cause you to walk in MY statutes, and ye shall keep MY judgments, and do them.
