Lent - Twenty Eighth Day

High Priest, by Eva Reynolds

"And you will be called priests of the Lord, you will be named ministers of our God. You will feed on the wealth of nations, and in their riches you will boast." Isaiah 61 verse 6

A Priest, as in 'an elder':  experienced, a leader, stable, authoritative.   

Minister to our Creator: someone who ministers or serves, a senior servant.  

With a mature relationship with our Creator comes serious responsibility.  This relationship is not passive. The closer your get to the King, the more you are delegated to do the work of royalty.  It's the same in any royal family- jobs are delegated out, and you go with the authority given to you. 

With success comes wealth, and in God's kingdom, the wealth is its people.

Question: Am I aware of my role as priest and minster?

Prayer: We are your army of leaders and at the same time, servants.
