For the Privilege of Priesthood<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

God of Grace,
As a believer, I am included among those you refer to as \u201ca chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God\u2019s special possession\u201d (1 Peter 2:9). Don\u2019t ever allow me to take these images of grace for granted! As a member of your royal priesthood, I am reminded that I am in your kingdom – and not just a peasant, but considered royalty. What a beautiful reminder of the glory that awaits me in heaven and after you return, when I will fully enjoy the glorious riches of my inheritance forever.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Until then, I have the distinct privilege of representing and serving you and others as a royal priest. While that responsibility was reserved only for a special class in the past, Jesus, our great High Priest, has opened up the priesthood to all believers by serving as our perfect sacrifice. By doing so, he makes our service and sacrifice to you holy as well. Keep me from taking my calling lightly, and lead me to embrace and faithfully carry out the service you have set aside for me to fulfill as your priestly representative.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Jesus\u2019 name I pray. Amen. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
