God expects your entire life to be a sacrifice to Him; you are to go wherever He sends you. When He says witness – you witness, sit- you sit, pray – you pray.

The moment God knows that He has you as a living sacrifice, whatever other offering you give becomes acceptable because it would be given under his guidance. Some of us, even before coming to Church, have made up our minds on the offering to give. For the fellow who is a living sacrifice, God will tell them what to give.

When I became General Overseer, things were hard. We could hardly pay the staff on the church’s payroll and many a time, there would be nothing left to pay the General Overseer. Having left paid employment for fulltime ministry after working for the government for several years, I received my gratuity, with plans to save some, invest some in shares and so on. However, since I am a living sacrifice, I asked God, “What do I do with this money?” He responded that I should divide it into three parts and give each to a different ministry while retaining nothing for myself. As painful as this was, I was comforted when he said further, “I will be your source”. When you become a living sacrifice, God will become your source. The day you become a living sacrifice, you become His property, so He will take care of you. Things may be hard at first, but He will make sure that your tomorrow will be all right (Colossians 1:27)
