Spirit Sacrifices and Burning Spiritual Incense
HEADLINE:
John 4:21 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father. 22 Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews. 23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. 24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
What do you know about real “spiritual worship” of God? Real priests ordained by Father-God have the responsibility of “burning incense” with their sacrifices. I am talking about REAL SPIRITUAL service that takes place at God’s Throne. The true Heavenly Priests are the Twelve Archangels. What is a real “spiritual sacrifice” desired by our Father, God?
Genesis 22:2 And he said, Take now thy son, thine only son Isaac, whom thou lovest, and get thee into the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell thee of.
Romans 12:1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
God is looking for HIS SONS as sacrifices. Archangels reign over and oversee all men on planet Earth. We are all under their “charge”. They are our leaders, guardians, and teachers. Surely there is someone down here that they can present to God for His “Holy Fire” when needed! The thing for us is to be ready at all times. “Holy fire” from God does not consume His children.
In Elijah’s days a challenge ensued between him and the prophets of Baal over who is God. This is one occasion in which God needed “a sacrifice”. Elijah and the prophets of Baal each chose an ox and laid it on wood. The true God would cause fire to ignite and consume the sacrifice to prove which is the true God. This challenge used animal flesh (oxen) for the sacrifice. In God’s real war with devils, the subjects are always His enslaved human children.
Song of Solomon 8:6 Set me as a seal upon thine heart, as a seal upon thine arm: for love is strong as death; jealousy is cruel as the grave: the coals thereof are coals of fire, which hath a most vehement flame.
Isaiah 43:2 When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.
“Burning a son” He loves in this manner causes that person to "testify and witness" before men and angels what Father has made him become as a living witness. Along with this offering, angelic priests also burn incense. “Spiritual incense” is not the blend of myrrh, frankincense, cinnamon and other spices like the Levites and other priests use in their ritual earthly service. Let us take a look at the word, “incense”, and learn what is real “spiritual incense”.

Acts 2:3 And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them. 5 And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven. 6 Now when this was noised abroad, the multitude came together, and were confounded, because that every man heard them speak in his own language. 7 And they were all amazed and marvelled, saying one to another, Behold, are not all these which speak Galilaeans? 8 And how hear we every man in our own tongue, wherein we were born?
Luke 12:11 And when they bring you unto the synagogues, and unto magistrates, and powers, take ye no thought how or what thing ye shall answer, or what ye shall say: 12 For the Holy Ghost shall teach you in the same hour what ye ought to say.
Burning a son He loves in this manner causes him to "testify and witness" before men and angels what Father has made him become, “a living witness”.
From Dictionary .com we have the secondary definition of incensed: verb (used with object),
in·censed, in·cens·ing.
to inflame with wrath; make angry; enrage.
Offering one’s “rage and anger at evil” by the person on display before Heaven is how Angelic Priests offer incense with their sacrifices.
Romans_12:1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
Hebrews 12:1 Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, 2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
Ode of Solomon 7:1 As the impulse of anger against evil, so is the impulse of joy over what is lovely, and brings in of its fruits without restraint:
This is an example of “pure incense” that angelic priests offer with their spiritual sacrifices of God’s sons below. The Heavenly audience above witness the action, but men below are totally out of the picture and oblivious of what is going on.
So if you resent sin and evil happening to men as a result of demonic captivity, and you have prayed to the Father about your displeasure at devils victimizing your fellowman in these matters, then you are, as they say, “smoking”!
