THE BETTER OFFERING

Genesis 4 vs 4b. And the Lord had respect unto Abel and to his offering. Vs 5, but unto cain and to his offering he had not respect.

Both of them offered good offering based on their specialization. Abel was a keeper of sheep so he offered first lings of his flock and of the fat. Cain was a tiller of the ground so he brought of the fruit of the ground.

Both of them offered good gift but there was something i believe was wrong with Cain. Listen, and the Lord had respect unto Abel first before his offering. Abel was a man his life pleased the Lord. God loves our gift but before our gift God is interested in the life of the giver of the gift.
How much have you being given to the activities and work of God, God is telling you this day i need you first not your gift. You can get applause from your pastors, congregation but you are insulting God with your gift if God had no respect unto Cain and his offerings it simply means cam was indirectly insulting God. A preacher will always say until you are save don't serve.

There was an error in the life of Cain, he may be a drunkard, he may be a lier etc but he believes his gift will cover his sins and make God to accept his offering.
No wonder Christ said in New Testament if you are about to give an offering and you remember you have a problem with your brother leave your offering their go and reconcile before giving.
There is a need for us to offer ourselves as offering before God, if we are accepted then we can offer our gifts. Gifts don’t go to heaven or hell but it is the giver. This is why God is interested in the giver unlike this generation pastors that prefers gift to the giver. The question now is how do we offer ourselves as offering to God, we do so by admitting we are sinners, we ask for mercy, we believe and accept THE PERFECT OFFERING(Jesus Christ personified) and then live out righteousness through Christ. When this is done we can now give our gifts.

Have a great day.

MY FATHER'S ADVICE TO ME WHEN I WAS SEARCHING FOR A WIFE...

My son, I will be very raw and sincere with you.

Do not worry about the size of a woman buttock
or breast but worry about the size of her heart
and brain. Worry about the size of her love and
endurance. Because after 5 or 10 years, it will not
be about the breast or buttock.
As you can see, your mum now has a flat chest
and almost flat buttock but we still live together
happily, I still love her and she still love me.
Be careful of a woman that loves money. I mean
the woman that talks ‘every time’ about her hair,
cloths, shoes, bags panties and make-ups.
Marriage is not all about these things. Without
make-up, cloths, shoes and panties a good
marriage will still stand but without love, no
marriage can stand.
When I got married to your mum, I didn’t have a
car or house of my own. I was not even
educated. But I had dreams and she appreciate
and support me. Any woman that does not
support your dream is not worth thinking-a-
minute about. There are women that will see your
dreams better than you, you are lucky if you find
one,
My son, open your ears very well, there is a kind
of woman you should avoid, do not make a
mistake to marry this kind of woman or you will
regret it. I mean a woman that always has bad
things to say about everyone. If you see this kind
of woman, run away.
One of the worst kind of woman you can marry is
the one that complains about everything. If you
buy this, she says you should have bought that, if
you do this, she said you should have done that.
Please stay away!
Most women enjoy talking but the one who talks
for two hours and listen for two minutes is a
potential ‘bomb’. Be wise
Be very careful of a pretending partner. A
pretending woman is not hard to know. She will
always know everything about everything, she
will
be careful. Just close your eyes and open your
heart and you will see!
No woman is perfect. If you see a woman who
believes in your dream , who respects you who is
committed and who is not all about herself alone
then don’t let her go.
But remember, you must not be a wayward man.
I have trained you!
If you find a good woman but you are a bad man,
you wont have a good marriage!
I won’t pick a wife for you but I have given you
my advice. When you find her, bring her for my
blessings.
May you find a woman that will increase you not
decrease you..
Above all pick a prayerful and a woman of the word of God.A woman who does not live by the word of God,is a woman that cannot take you to heaven.
