Today's Scripture *August 14, 2008*
1 Peter 2:9
But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light;
Christians sometimes speak of the "priesthood of believers". In Old Testament times, people did not approach God directly. A priest acted as intermediary between God and sinful human beings. With Christ's victory on the Cross, that pattern changed. Now we can come without fear (Hebrews 4: 16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need. ) and we care given the responsibility of bringing others to Him also (2 Corinthians 5: 18-21). When we are united with Christ as members of His body, we join in His priestly work of reconciling God and people.
Thank You Father God, for Your love and for dying for us. May we enter into Your presence with thanksgiving and awe!
We worship You Lord. In Your Name we pray, Amen..
God bless
