[Leviticus 1-4]
Regardless of whether one is rich or poor, whether one has the world or nothing at all, his sacrifice is well accepted by the Lord as a sweet savor. The only requirement that exist is that the sacrifice we bring be brought in the manner that the Lord asks of us.
The sacrifices that we bring before his feet is our heart and our lives. All He ask is that we bring ourselves as living sacrifices in a state that is pure and cleansed. We cannot bring our sacrifices before the Lord the way that we want to but in a way that pleases Him.
If there is sin in our lives or the slightest doubt of error in our hearts we must cleanse ourselves in the blood of the ultimate sacrifice which is Jesus, the Lamb of God. Because we cannot bring ourselves as sacrifices blemished by sin, we need must be atoned by an unblemished sacrifice and that is only the one of Jesus Christ. To have him cover our sin with his perfection is simply to ask him, and believe that He will do so.
