All In
Alabaster Jar, 30 Pieces of Silver, and the Cross
Matthew 26:6-16,36-46
So I’ve given you pictures of what it looks like to go all in with God, to push all your chips to the middle of the table and say, God I belong to you.
It is understanding that it doesn’t start with what you can do for God, it starts with what God has done for you.
She wasn’t just pouring perfume on Jesus, She was giving her life to Jesus. She was offering her life to Jesus.
So when we give these gifts, of our tithes and offerings I hope you see it as an alabaster jay of perfume.
Jesus is alluding to the cup of wrath, sometimes it is called the cup of sorrow in the Old Testament.
Are you grateful today? Are you grateful today that He took our place, that He drank the cup that we deserve?
I don’t know what God is demanding or asking or prompting of you, but He gave everything, and that means we should be willing to give ourselves back to Him.
