Dedications to God
Scripture 2 Chron 5:1 So all the work that Solomon had done for the house of the LORD was finished; and Solomon brought in the things which his father David had dedicated: the silver and the gold and all the furnishings. And he put them in the treasuries of the house of God.
Observation: What do we have to bring to the house of God? What do we dedicate to God, most of us don’t have gold or silver to present to our Lord, but we have something more precious than that, we have ourselves. We have the time God has blessed us with, our gifts and talents and most importantly our love. That is what God wants more than anything our love and obedience and one goes along with the other. That is what we are to bring into the house of our God and dedicate our lives to Him. To serve with a joyful heart, serving others in His name and showing others His love through us.
Application: I need to dedicate my life, not just an hour here or there, but my entire life. Whenever I do anything it must be done with God in mine and bringing each moment before God and dedicating that to Him. When I bring my dedications to His house I will see them when I get to Heaven and I want Him to show me a large room filled with my dedications to Him, I don’t want it to be a small closet with a couple of dedications, but something that will honor my Lord and Master.
Prayer: My Lord I dedicate this life to you, but I need your help letting go of it. I am yours and I will never be worthy, but may a day not pass by that I come a little closer in glorifying you. I love you and you deserve the best that I have, I dedicate that to you.
