PSALM 50, Sacrifice of Praise

Bring no more vain oblations .  ISAIAH 1:13  KJV

oblations;-  non living offerings ( in contrast to an animal sacrifice )
Our "firstfruits" today are usually money except at harvest festival.
Our tithe is not the blood of goats,
but the sacrifice called for is still a sacrifice of praise.

Offer to God a sacrifice of praise 
And pay your vows to the Most High   Ps 50:14 SAAS

A sacrifice of praise shall glorify Me   Ps 50:23 SAAS

Our sacrifice is not what we put in the collection, that is God's due.
Genuine praise....from the heart....is deep grateful appreciation of
who God is to us personally ...Praise has to be genuine.

ISAIAH 1:13
Whoever says he is in the light and hates his brother
is still in darkness.

Genuine praise is not fleeting ( for public performance only )
but ongoing in practice and truth.

Little children let us not love in words or talk
    bot in deed and truth

So the charismatic praise we offer in love and joy
is matched by the love and joy in which we serve Him....
in our neighbour , the hungry, the sick, the homeless
the stranger, the prisoner and all in need, in everyday life.
