Leviticus 7:12 NLT
“If you present your peace offering as an expression of thanksgiving, the usual animal sacrifice must be accompanied by various kinds of bread made without yeast—thin cakes mixed with olive oil, wafers spread with oil, and cakes made of choice flour mixed with olive oil.”
Genuine and authentic Thanksgiving
According to the law, anyone who desired to make peace with God could offer a peace offering. Additionally, the offering could be presented as a form of Thanksgiving to God. The peace offering required the sacrifice of an unblemished animal, while the Thanksgiving aspect excluded the use of yeast in various breads. Perhaps, yeast was forbidden because it alters the bread’s appearance, and God wanted the offeror to be genuine. Therefore, the offeror should be themselves when presenting Thanksgiving to God. If offerors under the law couldn’t add yeast to their bread, then we, who Jesus Christ’s blood has redeemed, must also be genuine in our Thanksgiving offerings to God.
Prayer
Heavenly Father, I humbly ask for your guidance to ensure that all my Thanksgiving offerings to You are sincere and authentic. I pray this in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
