“They shall be holy unto their God, and not profane the name of their God: for the offerings of the LORD made by fire, and the bread of their God, they do offer: therefore they shall be holy.”
Leviticus 21:6 KJV
All Israelites were chosen as a special community set apart for God as a priestly nation and the Aaronic priests were called to serve God full-time. All the holy laws and requirements were common for both the Israelites and the priests but the law required more from the Aaronic priests. In Christ, every believer is a priest. In the New Covenant, as God’s holy priest, we stand between the sinning world and the saving Lord. The most precious Holy Spirit is upon us and we are clothed with the most precious Christ Jesus. We live in His Presence every second of our life. Our offerings, prayers, praises, committed life, substance and everything we are and have is well accepted and brings joy to God’s heart. We are holy to our God to protect the honour of His Name and can never profane His Name. We present every man perfect in Christ Jesus: which is why we labour, striving according to His working, which works in us mightily. Amen!
