Num. 27-29

The offerings to appease the Lord were to have a pleasing aroma. (Who doesn’t like steak on the grill?) We don’t much discuss God’s ability to smell. However, it was an important criteria for acceptable offerings.

The most pleasing aroma to the Lord is that of a life that pleases Him. Every thought, deed, and motive we perform creates an aroma that God is aware of. This should be a plenty effective stimulation to live clean lives before Him.

For we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ. [2 Cor. 2:15]
