DAILY MANNA FOR TODAY
The Hebrew word for “peace” shalom represents wholeness and right relationship with God, others, and creation. The peace offering, as a voluntary offering, signifies restored relationship with God. This type of offering is indicative of a voluntary expression of faith, thanksgiving, and gratitude.
Our passage today pertains to the detailed instructions given for the peace offerings. These offerings were important for maintaining a harmonious relationship between an individual and God. Specifically, the passage outlines which parts of the animal are to be removed and offered to the Lord. It also gives us the role of the priests in the exercise. The kidneys and the fat signify the best portions of the sacrifice, which were to be dedicated to God. This act of offering the choicest parts is a form of worship and reverence, recognising God’s supreme authority and generosity.
From that context, it is clear that such offerings were to be made accurately and respectfully. The focal point of burning these parts was to create a “sweet savour unto the LORD,” signifying that the offering was pleasing and acceptable to Him. The prescribed portions for the peace offerings highlight the significance of giving God the best, demonstrating the importance of sacrifice and dedication in worship.
However, while the Old Testament gives us the details of how to make acceptable blood sacrifices, Jesus Christ, in the New Testament, offered up Himself as the Lamb of God who took away our sins on the cross at Calvary. “For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us” (Ephesians 2:14). With Jesus as our peace, we need not kill any animal to make peace for our iniquities, but only embrace Him wholeheartedly. Praise the Lord.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Any talk about peace that excludes the Prince of Peace is a piece of delusion.
