Our Duty As Priests And Saints

Today's verse is II Chronicles 6:41
Now therefore arise, O LORD God, into thy resting place, thou, and the ark of thy strength: let thy priests, O LORD God, be clothed with salvation, and let thy saints rejoice in goodness. 

Since Moses and Aaron until Christ the priests of God were the sons of Aaron. Today Peter tells us: "But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people." We who have received Jesus Christ as Savior are his Priests, not just a few but all of us. So then also we that are the Priests of God are also his saints as Paul declares: "[T]o them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all that in every place call upon the name of Jesus Christ our Lord." So we that have called upon the name of Jesus Christ for redemption are his Priests and his saints, so as Solomon has prayed, let us wear our Salvation so that others can see Jesus Christ through us as we rejoice in the goodness our God has shown us. Amen.

To God be the Glory
