How To Be Perfect Before God
“When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the Lord appeared to Abram and said to him, “I am Almighty God; walk before Me and be blameless.” Genesis 17. 1
The only connection channel between God and man is the sacrificial faith, through the sacrificial faith we come into the Presence of the Almighty God, the access to Him is not done through charitable works, merits or knowledge of His word or not even the time we’ve been to church, if there’s no manifestation of sacrificial faith no one is able to enter before His majesty.
God is the Creator of sacrifice, he was the first one to sacrifice an animal in the Garden of Eden to cover man’s fall and shame before the devil, see that for God Himself to come to man and cover his needs He had to make a sacrifice then, how can we come into His presence and call His attention without sacrificing?
The perfect sacrifice has power to make us appear blameless before God because through sacrifice we are justified before Him, as Paul said, “Therefore, have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom also we have ACCESS by faith into this grace in which we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.” Romans 5.1,2
Perfect Sacrifice is the one who makes us dependent on God only, when the sacrifice we make is really perfect then, there’s no options for us nor for God and that’s when He has to fulfill all His promises in our lives.
By taking his son Isaac to be sacrificed on top of Mount Moriah, Abraham reached the climax, the perfection and the extreme of his faith, and because of that action Abraham was called God’s friend and became a father of a great nation.
Clearly and without any shadow of doubt, perfect sacrifice is the only way to bring you a perfect marriage, is the only power that can make your family, financial and sentimental life to be perfect and worthy to be a son of God.
“This is the sum of the years of Abraham’s life which he lived; one hundred and seventy-five years. Then Abraham breathed his last and he died in a GOOD OLD AGE, an old man and FULL OF YEARS, and was gathered to his people. Genesis 25. 7,8
You too can conquer the same blessing through a perfect sacrifice.
In the Faith of Abraham!
Bishop Carlos E Da Costa
