SACRIFICES GOD DESIRES (2)

(Message by Tanny Keng)

1. Sacrifices God desires

(Romans 12:1-2 NKJV) 
I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. {2} And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

(Hebrews 13:15-16 NKJV) 
Therefore by Him let us continually offer the sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of our lips, giving thanks to His name. {16} But do not forget to do good and to share, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased. 

2. Other Scriptures

(Psalms 51:10-17 NKJV) 
Create in me a clean heart, O God, And renew a steadfast spirit within me. {11} Do not cast me away from Your presence, And do not take Your Holy Spirit from me. {12} Restore to me the joy of Your salvation, And uphold me by Your generous Spirit. {13} Then I will teach transgressors Your ways, And sinners shall be converted to You. {14} Deliver me from the guilt of bloodshed, O God, The God of my salvation, And my tongue shall sing aloud of Your righteousness. {15} O Lord, open my lips, And my mouth shall show forth Your praise. {16} For You do not desire sacrifice, or else I would give it; You do not delight in burnt offering. {17} The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit, A broken and a contrite heart; These, O God, You will not despise.

(Psalms 54:4-7 NKJV) 
Behold, God is my helper; The Lord is with those who uphold my life. {5} He will repay my enemies for their evil. Cut them off in Your truth. {6} I will freely sacrifice to You; I will praise Your name, O LORD, for it is good. {7} For He has delivered me out of all trouble; And my eye has seen its desire upon my enemies.
