SACRIFICE
Types:
financial sacrifice: Your offering and your tithe are your financial sacrifice. You need to dedicate your life and your method of giving to God.
Material sacrifice: Sacrificing your time for God. God really need you to put your trust and faith in him because he is your provider and can do all what you ask for but you need to dedicate your time for him. There are some questions you need to ask yourself, which are: What are you giving to your God as sacrifice? What is that thing you have that you cannot give to your God whereas he gave you what you have and made you who you are today.
