Passage: Leviticus 2:1~16
Key Verse: 13
Title: THE GRAIN OFFERING
Content:
The grain offering is given as a sign of thanksgiving to God for his faithful provision. The grain offering should be of the finest flour and mixed with oil and frankincense. The oil makes it sweet, and frankincense makes it expensive. A memorial portion of the flour is to be burned on the altar to God, and the rest must be given to the priests. Have you made an offering to give thanks?

The grain offering is baked at home, showing the devotion of the worshiper. Instructions for the different types of grain offering are described in detail. It is crucial that they did not include yeast or honey. Yeast symbolizes an old batch, or the corruption of original sin. Honey is typically used in pagan offerings. They represent sin and pride, a little of which could corrupt the whole.

Verse 13 mentions the covenant of salt three times. Salt is used to purify and preserve. It was also expensive. It represents the faithful, enduring covenant with God. This covenant is referred to two other places in the Old Testament (Nu 18:19; 2 Ch 13:5), and Jesus talks about being the salt of the earth (Mt 5:13). This seasoned grain offering represents Christ, our Bread of Life. He sustains us and satisfies us in every way.


Prayer: Father, thank you for providing everything for me. Help me to keep my covenant through Jesus' blood with you purely and faithfully.
One Word: An offering of thanksgiving
