Daily Devotions: Offerings Without Yeast - February 17, 2026

Leviticus 8:1–2 (NLT) “Then the Lord said to Moses, ‘Bring Aaron and his sons, along with their sacred garments and anointing oil, the bull for the sin offering, the two rams, and the basket of bread made without yeast.’” In this episode of Daily Devotions, Pastor David Sumrall continues our time in Leviticus and points out why Scripture repeatedly emphasizes offerings made without yeast. When the Bible repeats something, it is because God wants His people to understand it clearly. Throughout Leviticus, yeast is excluded from offerings because it represents sin and exaggeration. Yeast makes something appear larger than it really is. In the same way, an offering must never pretend to be something it is not. God is not honored by gifts connected to wrongdoing, corruption, or dishonesty. An offering is meant to be given with sincerity and truth. The Lord was teaching Israel that worship cannot be separated from how we live. What we bring before Him should not be mixed with sin. Giving does not cover up wrongdoing, and money never replaces obedience. An offering is an expression of honor, not a way to excuse what God has already said is wrong. Leviticus reminds us that when we bring something to the Lord, it should be clean, honest, and given with a clear heart. Worship is not about appearance. It is about integrity before God. ---- Discover fundamental truths and the power of Scripture with Pastor David E. Sumrall on Daily Devotions.
