Sit and Set 2
And the king turned his face, and blessed the whole congregation of Israel: and all the congregation of Israel stood. 2 Chronicles 6:3
Then the priests the Levites arose and blessed the people: and their voice was heard, and their prayer came up to his holy dwelling place, even unto heaven. 2 Chronicles 30:27
And as soon as David had made an end of offering burnt offerings and peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the LORD of hosts. 2 Samuel 6:18
As we see the priests would minister unto the Lord and than bless all about them.
But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, ... Hebrews 9:11
Not only is Christ our high priest but his priesthood is greater than any other before him. His blessing comes from heaven itself, the place where eternal Life is seated upon the throne.
Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad. John 8:56
A thought is seen and heard as one sees the day Abraham saw Christ and was glad. For you can find it in Genesis 14:18-20
And Melchizedek king of Salem brought forth bread and wine: and he was the priest of the most high God.
And he blessed him, and said, Blessed be Abram of the most high God, possessor of heaven and earth: And blessed be the most high God, which hath delivered thine enemies into thy hand. And he gave him tithes of all.
The ORDER (SET) of Melchizedek as seen in the account of Abraham is an ORDER OF BLESSING!
Just as there is Life for them in Christ and no curses so it was with Abraham and Melchizedek. For Melchizedek blessed Abraham with bread and wine which Christ also did at the Passover feast and Melchizedek blessed God for delivering Abraham from his enemies just as the children of God have been delivered from death and darkness (sin).
Who delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver: in whom we trust that he will yet deliver us; ... 2 Corinthians 1:10
who gave Himself for our sins to rescue us from the present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father, ... Galatians 1:4 [Berean Study Bible]
Christ actions is as a cross indeed. In one way he came to do the will of the Father and by doing so he is able to now save any that come the way of him.
Just as humankind have two hands so does the high priesthood of Christ’s. With one hand he is able to save us and with the other hand he is able to touch the very Life upon the throne. Any called minister of God’s will walk as a called priest touching humankind as well as touching God.
Moses spoke of the Levi priesthood as the ones that “.... shall teach Jacob thy judgments, and Israel thy law: they shall put incense before thee, and whole burnt sacrifice upon thine altar.” Deuteronomy 33:10
A spiritual ministry is seen unto God and man spoken from Moses. For Jacob today is the one that walks in the darkness and the true Israel are they that have been redeemed from darkness and walk in the Light.
Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints; ... Ephesians 6:13,17,18
The offerings that the priest has for God is seen in Romans 12:1 “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.” and “By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name.” Hebrews 13:15
How we as the priests unto God will walk in this calling as seen throughout the bible for it is a calling of self denial for a calling of servitude. They that see this will know He gives the Light of this truth and the gace to enable them to walk in it. No man picks this up and no man puts it upon himself, for it is the high calling of God for them that love Him with their all and hate their lives in this world.
For these priests are they that will bless the MOST HIGH GOD and in return receive the bless from God for His people. They will not be selfish in anyway for the blessing given is greater than the blessing received.
“Lo, I come to do THY will, O God”
Just as the fore runner went before us his example is left for us to follow in. For he did say “I am the way” and the way he has opened unto us is the only way unto the Father. His example is not in the pages of a book, but his example is an open scroll upon the hearts of his royal priesthood. Examples of reaching out to minister as well as reaching to Him for all the needed power to do the will of Him.
“For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens; ....” Hebrews 7:26
Some may say that was for him but what they miss is that by his death and resurrection God is able to make them He calls holy and righteous and they His sons will be harmless unto all, undefiled from the ways of the flesh and shall come out from the world and be not partakers with their evil deeds.
By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. Hebrews 10:10 [sanctified=free from the guilt of sin and consecrate unto God]
For indeed Christ died for sins once for all, the Just and Righteous for the unjust and unrighteous [the Innocent for the guilty] so that He might bring us to God, having been put to death in the flesh, but made alive in the Spirit; ...1 Peter 3:18 (AMP)
In weakness of mind I see my failures in doing as He wills but in my heart I know I can “come boldly unto the throne of grace, that I may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need" Hebrews 4:16
For he is “a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make reconciliation for the sins of the people.” Hebrews 2:17
For the Light of His Spirit has given me understanding that my high priest “...is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.” John 2:2 This Light is the victory of his death within me for he is not as the first Adam but is the last Adam “a quickening spirit.”
This victory is what all creation cries out for and this victory is for His manifested sons so that they may be the needed royal priests unto all and unto God.
But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a consecrated nation, a [special] people for God’s own possession, so that you may proclaim the excellencies [the wonderful deeds and virtues and perfections] of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvellous light.
Once you were not a people [at all], but now you are God’s people; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy. 1 Peter 2:9,10
The revelation of His Word comes when the vessels are ready to be broken open so that His Light will shine before all to see. For upon His right hand will once again be seen the very needed power to do His will as His priests towards a dark world and for the Light of heaven.
