It Is Finished: Becoming a Living AltarThursday October 30th, 2025Blog link - https://www.otakada.org/it-is-finished-becoming-a-living-altar/Dear friends in Christ—brothers and sisters who walk with Jesus every day. In our busy lives, filled with worries about family, work, and the world around us, it's easy to feel pulled in many directions. We've heard teachings about building altars—sowing seeds on mountains or raising higher ones to overcome troubles. But let's pause and listen closely to what God is really saying. The truth is simple and freeing: *It is finished!* No blood, no special offering, no extra effort can add to what Jesus did on the Cross. That was the final altar, and its message still echoes with power today#ItIsFinished;#LivingAltar;#ChristianLiving;#BibleAltars;#FinishedWorkOfTheCross;#LivingSacrifice;#NewCovenantFaith;#SpiritualSurrender;#RenewYourMind;#DailyDevotion;what does it mean to become a living altar in Christianity;biblical meaning of altars and the finished work of Jesus;how to live as a living sacrifice according to Romans 12;overcoming hidden altars in daily Christian life;it is finished meaning from the Cross of Calvary;dedicating your home and life as an altar to God;renewing your mind with Philippians 4:8 meditation;practical steps to rebuild broken altars in faith;Christian declaration for overcoming wrong altars;God of wonders worship song lyrics and meaning; 

In order to truly embody the message of the Gospel we will find it necessary to live sacrificially. If Jesus lived sacrificially, there is no way for us to truly communicate His message without doing so as well. This teaching will challenge you to see that it's the kindness of God that invites us to sacrifice for others.

Marva Dawn writes, "To worship the Lord is— in the world's eyes— a waste of time. It is a royal waste of time, but a waste, nonetheless." We assume that wasting is a bad thing, and when it comes to everyday things like time, we'd probably be right. But in this sermon, Pastor Chris encourages us to waste time royally. And there's a big difference between a Royal Waste and a regular one. Join us for a look at what it means to be poured out like a sacrifice and engage in royal wastes of time. Note: The painting associated with this sermon is titled "Waste of Time" (detail) by Benny Kacerovsky. It is viewable on the Epiclesis podcast page but not in the iTunes app.

Welcome to our Podcast. Listen to Rev. Dr. Matthew Everhard as he preaches onRomans 12:1-2Living Sacrifice

Romans 12:1, “I plead with you to give your bodies to God because of all he has done for you. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice – the kind he will find acceptable. This is truly the way to worship him.” What does it look like to offer yourself as a living sacrifice […]

Before the foundation can be laid, the altar must come first. In this powerful message from Kingdom Builders Pt. 2, Pastor Anthony Daley preaches from Ezra 3, reminding us that revival begins when we rebuild the altars of faith, prayer, and surrender.

In this powerful message, Pastor Tommy Hodges walks us through one of the most practical and transformative chapters in the New Testament, Romans 12. After spending eleven chapters explaining the mercy and grace of God, Paul shifts gears with the word “Therefore…” calling believers to live differently because of what Christ has already done for us.

Being a Living Sacrifice for God is not just because of what Jesus has done for us. Wholistically, it is because of what God will do through us!

Dr. Richard Parker teaches from the series: Topical, in the book of Romans, verses 12:1 - 2

You have to leave the city of your comfort and go into the wilderness of your intuition. What you'll discover will be wonderful. What you'll discover is yourself. –Alan AldaEPISODE HIGHLIGHTS Confront the Source of Doubt: When you question if your prayers are working, stop and ask, "Who told me it wasn't working?" The answer is fear, and your perfect love union in Christ casts it out, promoting Healing and Transformation podcast insights. It's Already In Motion: Your decrees, prayers, and heart desires are not waiting to start; they are already turning the wheels of creation because of God's belief and favor in you. Rest in His Faith: Faith is a result of your encounters with the love of God. Stop striving for "more faith" and start engaging in Daily spiritual wisdom (encountering His love). You Are Impregnable: The name of Jacob's God (Psalms 24) makes you able to carry your promise to term. You have heaven's support, making you a Transformational spiritual leader in your own life. Faith is NOT a work. It's what happens when you are overwhelmed by God's belief and favor in a daily encounter. Stop striving to muster enough faith. Start focusing on encountering His love—that is the momentum needed for spiritual growth and finding purpose through faith. Your worship as a Living Sacrifice pleases Him more than any religious routine!

Living Sacrifice

“A Living Sacrifice In A Dying World” by David Truesdell. Romans 12:1-2

Sunday evening  message from the pulpit of Shawano Baptist Church

Life on mission starts with surrender. In Romans 12:1–2, Paul calls us to lay down our whole selves, resist the pull of the world, and allow God to transform us from the inside out. In this message, we explore what it means to live as a “living sacrifice,” to daily renew our minds, and to walk in the good purpose God has prepared for us.

Pastor Sam Rainer preaches a verse-by-verse sermon series through the entire book of Romans. This sermon covers chapter twelve. To be a living sacrifice is to die to yourself over and over again. You put to death the idea that your life is your own, that you have the right to live as you choose.

John Ervine - Sun 14th September 25false00:41:3524A Living Sacrificefull

We reflected on God's impartiality from Romans and the call to offer our lives as living sacrifices. Through scripture and testimonies, we explored how faith transforms our thinking, how mercy and love are lived out in daily practice, and how God's Word anchors us even when faced with tragedy in the world. We were reminded that suffering, loss, and hardship are not meaningless but are opportunities for prayer, unity, and deeper reliance on God's unchanging presence.Themes:God shows no partiality, reminding us of His unchanging nature (Romans 2:11)Living as a holy offering through renewed minds, avoiding conformity to the world (Romans 12:1–8)Using our unique gifts in the body of Christ for the good of allPracticing mercy, cheerfulness, hospitality, and brotherly love while avoiding vengeanceOvercoming evil with good through patience, prayer, and unityTragic events in the world reveal the depth of human brokenness and the need for prayerGod's Word brings peace and guidance in decisions and personal strugglesPrayer and fellowship strengthen us in times of trial and remind us of God's presenceScripture References: Romans 2:11; Romans 12:1–8

How can we adore God? Does God need our sacrifices? Cale looks at Genesis 8 and 9 and discusses baptism, sacrifice, and also the acronym ACTS (Adoration, Confession, Thanksgiving, Supplication).

Sermon for the Twelfth Sunday after Pentecost

Pastor Brendan Hannington

Romans: Transforming Power of the Gospel, Pt. 20 – Living SacrificesRomans 12:1–2 | King's Chapel Live StreamRomans 12 opens with one of the most life-changing calls in the entire Bible. Paul urges us to present our bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God.This call is not about rules or rituals. It is about responding to the mercy of God shown at the cross. Because of what Jesus has done for us, our whole lives are meant to be an offering of worship.Living as a sacrifice means refusing to be shaped by the values of the world. Instead, we are to be transformed by the renewing of our minds. A renewed mind begins to see the world through the truth of Scripture. It helps us discern the will of God and live it out with confidence.This message reminds us that true worship is not just about what we sing on Sunday but how we live every day.

Right between soul fatigue and soul restoration lies the battlefield of your faith. In Part 3 of our Psalm 23 Collection, Pastor Travis Hearn delivers a prophetic “bonus track” message that shakes the very foundations of compromise. Rooted in the sacred words of Psalm 23 and the fiery showdown on Mount Carmel, Don't Bow to Baal is a call to holy defiance—a divine interruption between green pastures and soul restoration. This isn't just another sermon. It's a spiritual wake-up call. With piercing conviction and biblical power, Pastor Travis reveals how the enemy strikes hardest when you're most vulnerable—right after the breakthrough, right after the blessing. Baal may no longer be a statue, but its spirit is alive and thriving in our culture. In the pressures of popularity, comfort, and conformity—will you stand, or will you bow? Drawing from Elijah's confrontation with Baal, Jesus' wilderness temptation, and the unwavering fireproof faith of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, this message ignites courage to stand when everyone else bows. It calls you to rebuild your altar, reignite your fire, and renounce every idol fighting for the throne of your heart. The line has been drawn. No more wavering. No more silence. No more compromise. If you don't bow—you won't burn. The fire isn't your end; it's where God reveals Himself. Welcome to the holy resistance. DON'T BOW TO BAAL.

Pastor Dustin Clegg continues with the One Another Summer series as we look at Romans 12:9-21. As you listen, keep this application in mind: Keep climbing back on the altar and offering yourself as a Living Sacrifice.
