9 Steps to Prepare for Something New

DAY 2 OF 9

Build an Altar First

The Children of Israel started building an altar first. They were called back to build a temple, but the temple is not where they started. They started by building the altar to offer a burnt offering, a sacrifice to God.

The altar is where God meets us. It is a place for sacrifice, worship, and prayer.

Sacrifice is an act of slaughtering or surrendering a possession as an offering to God. It isn’t pretty, but it is necessary. Sometimes we have to shed some things before we can move forward in what God is calling us to do.
