EXCEL: ONLY THE BEST FOR GOD (MAL. 1:6-14)

SOBRESALIR: SOLO LO MEJOR PARA DIOS

Pastor Maria Khaleel

God accused His people of dishonoring His name. They were shocked by such an accusation. So God spells it out: they were giving Him their leftovers: moldy bread, and sick and crippled animals. Instead of offering to God their best, they offered Him that which was not good or useful for anything else. It had no value, it cost them nothing.
The quality of what we offer to God matters greatly to Him (our lives, our service, our devotion to God), because it is an expression of our attitude towards Him. God is not pleased with the left overs of our time, energy, efforts or giving. God will not accept anything that is lest than the best. This passage reveals to us several important lessons about offering our best to the Lord.
