06-16-25 part 1: Give God the Best, Not the Leftovers
Section One
The show kicks off with energy, humor, and a call to faith-centered community. Listeners are encouraged to participate through calls, texts, or emails—not just to interact, but to share praise reports, prayer requests, or anything God has put on their hearts. The invitation to contribute is rooted in mutual encouragement and giving glory to God. Even though the technical sound elements may be in flux, the core remains: glorifying Jesus, honoring the Father, and allowing the Holy Spirit to lead. The show’s tone reminds us that excellence in faith is not about flawless execution but about genuine surrender to God’s purposes.
Section Two
The passage from Malachi becomes the spiritual centerpiece of this segment. God confronts His people for dishonoring Him with defiled sacrifices—offerings that were not their best, but what they could spare. This rebuke is timeless: God deserves our best, not our leftovers. Whether it’s time, attention, energy, or devotion, what we offer reflects our view of His worth. A blind or broken animal would be insulting to a human leader—how much more to the King of the Universe? The takeaway is clear: God is not pleased with scraps of devotion. He is our Father and our Master, and He deserves our first and finest.
Section Three
The teaching is both challenging and freeing. It invites listeners to examine what they truly give God. Are we offering Him excellence, or convenience? David compares this to relationships, like how a weak effort would be obvious to a loved one—and even more so to the Lord. The message is not about guilt but awareness. Giving God our best isn’t about perfection but about heart-centered intentionality. The wrap-up includes a trivia question and encouragement to press on despite technical hurdles. The emphasis stays rooted in spiritual growth and the centrality of loving God fully—heart, soul, mind, and strength.
