Numbers 28:3-4
This is the food offering you are to present to the LORD: two lambs a year old without defect, as a regular burnt offering each day. Offer one lamb in the morning and the other at twilight…
Continuous Devotion
The importance of starting and ending every day in praise and worship of God. We read, “This is the food offering you are to present to the Lord: two lambs a year old without defect, as a regular burnt offering each day. Offer one lamb in the morning and the other at twilight.” These daily offerings were the first offering in the morning and the last offering in the evening in the Temple, every day of the year. Together they are known as the regular offerings. But regular also means continuous or constant. If the twice-daily offerings were brought to start and end the day, many hours apart, why does the Bible refer to them as “continuous”? The Bible is teaching us an important lesson. God doesn’t expect us to spend all day in constant praise and worship. We would not be able to go about our lives. But by starting and ending each day with prayer and affirmations of faith, we show God that He is our priority, that our mind is never far from Him, that our devotion to Him is continuous. If you don’t already, try framing your day with a prayer in the morning and a prayer in the evening. They don’t have to be complicated or lengthy — just a word of thanks or praise to God for each day.
