About this listen
We constantly hear calls for “sacrifice” today—but seldom the more important question: sacrifice for whom? David gives us the standard. When three of his soldiers risked their lives to bring him water from Bethlehem, he refused to drink it, pouring it out instead to the Lord, declaring that only God is worthy of such costly devotion. In contrast, modern leaders—political, social, even personal—often demand sacrifices that only God has the right to require. Scripture teaches that our highest duty is to fear God and keep His commandments; any person who demands greater loyalty is playing god. While ungodly prosperity is condemned, the Bible encourages us to pray for righteous prosperity, not misery. True worship is revealed by what—or whom—we sacrifice for above all else. And the Christian’s answer must be clear: we will do our duty under God, but sacrifices belong to Him alone.
