Today we will be dealing with 20 bible verses about consecration.
Consecration is dedicating your life fully to God. God is the Alpha and Omega of our lives. Dedicating our lives fully to Him is a good thing to do as a Christian. Consecration means that we decided to leave behind our old ways and bad ways that were not glorifying God and making ourselves sacred and holy. As Christians our lives should be consecrated to God ,our moments,our days, our lifestyles. Our service to God must be holy and acceptable to God.
