The detailed regulations required of both the priests and the congregation as described in Leviticus is ambitious and somewhat monumental. God was very thorough in conveying the elements necessary to please Him.

The New Testament believer has been relieved of the necessity of offering animals to atone for sin through Christ’s death on the cross. However, we are nonetheless wise to devote intentionality, sincerity, and effort when offering our praise and thanksgiving.

A New Testament worship service is not to be a contemporary music concert. It should be a platform for redeemed worshipers to make lavish offerings of praise to the Lord.

PRAYER: Father, forgive us for neglecting to offer to You the fruit of our lips in song and the lifting up of our hands in praise to You. You deserve the highest and most lavish praise offered from sincere hearts.
