Apply Leviticus 3:10 in daily worship?
How can we apply the principles of Leviticus 3:10 in our daily worship?

Text of Leviticus 3:10

“and the two kidneys with the fat that is on them near the loins, and the lobe of the liver, which he is to remove with the kidneys.”


What This Teaches About Worship

- God specifies exactly what is to be offered; He cares about details.

- The choicest, richest portions (“fat”) are set apart for Him alone.

- Hidden organs (kidneys, liver) point to the inner life—motives and affections—not just outward actions.


Key Principles for Us Today

- Wholehearted Surrender: Worship is giving God the very best and the very deepest parts of ourselves (Romans 12:1).

- Purity of Motive: Inner attitudes matter as much as visible acts (Psalm 139:23-24).

- Obedient Precision: Scriptural patterns guide, not human preference (John 14:15).

- Peace and Fellowship: The peace offering celebrated restored relationship; our worship flows from the peace secured by Christ (Colossians 1:20).


Practical Steps for Daily Worship

• Start each morning by consciously presenting your body and day to the Lord as a “living sacrifice” (Romans 12:1).

• Give God the “fat”—the first and best time, energy, talents, and resources, not the leftovers (Proverbs 3:9).

• Invite the Spirit to search the hidden places of the heart; confess and “remove” anything that hinders communion (Psalm 139:23-24; 1 John 1:9).

• Follow biblical instructions in gathered worship—reading Scripture, singing truth, praying together, giving generously, celebrating the Lord’s Supper (Acts 2:42-47).

• Let daily work, relationships, and service be fragrant offerings—done with gratitude and love (Philippians 4:18; Ephesians 5:2).

• Remember your body is a temple; honor God in your habits, media choices, and conduct (1 Corinthians 6:19-20).


Living the Peace-Offering Lifestyle

Continual gratitude for reconciliation through Christ fuels a life that steadily hands over the richest “portions” to God. By guarding the inner life, obeying His Word precisely, and joyfully offering our best, we turn everyday moments into sweet-smelling worship before the Lord.
