“Moreover, I am giving to you a sh’khem (portion) [shoulder, ridge, share, city of Sh’khem] more than to your brothers ; I captured it from the Emori with my sword and bow.”
Genesis 48:22 CJB
Favoritism? Maybe, but this is where Yoseph’s bones will lie! When we give all, God will give all!
“I exhort you, therefore, brothers, in view of God’s mercies, to offer yourselves as a sacrifice, living and set apart of God. This will please him; it is logical Temple worship for you.”
Romans 12:1 CJB
Temple worship means you act the same way at church as you do when you walk out!
“I, Adonai, called you righteously, I took hold of you by the hand, I shaped you and made you a covenant for the people, to be light for the Goyim (nations).”
Isaiah 42:6 CJB
God will always give us more when we do more for Him, this doesn’t mean do to get, but do because we love Adonai and it’s reasonable to serve Him!
So let’s serve Adonai today!
