Where Do Your Words Go?
SCRIPTURE:
Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession, Christ Jesus; (Hebrews 3:1)
When you speak God’s Word, there are things that go into motion that you can’t see with the natural eye. This verse reveals where your words go and how they work in the spiritual realm. “Holy brethren” is you, and you are a partaker of the “heavenly calling.” What is that calling? To speak the Word and will of God into the Earth. And how do you do that? You are to consider (think about, ponder, and meditate on) Jesus.
Jesus is first your Apostle, the one who was sent by God to save you. He is the High Priest of your profession…Your profession or confession of faith goes right to Jesus, your High Priest, when you say what God and His Word say.
In the Old Testament, once a year the high priest went into the Holy of Holies to make a sacrifice on behalf of all the children of Israel for all the sins they had committed that year. He was doing something before God for everybody. Jesus became our eternal sacrifice and High Priest when He carried His own blood into the Holy of Holies in Heaven to atone for all the sins of mankind for all time. Now, He is the High Priest of our confession of faith. That means our words go right to Him in Heaven.
PRAYER:
Dear Father, thank you for sending Jesus as my High Priest to save me. I will meditate on Jesus, the Living Word, and fulfill my calling to speak Your Word and will into the Earth. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.
