THE LORD And HIGH PRIEST OF THE BLESSING !

THE LORD And HIGH PRIEST OF THE BLESSING ! "But this man, because he continues ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood. Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever lives to make intercession for them." (Hebrews 7:24-25). It's a marvelous thing to have an intercessor. Someone that knows what the Word of God says; and can talk to God the Father on your behalf. That's what happens when you have the right intercessor he stands on a whole new dimension of boldness, because an intercessor isn't just someone who prays for you. And intercessor is someone who stands with you and takes your side. It's someone who stands when you are in challenging situations. When you're facing trouble, and effective intercessor can make a lot of difference. When that intercessor is Jesus, the Anointed One--- the conquering Lord of all, the King of kings to him all authority has been given both in heaven and on earth--- it changes everything. The sad fact is, however, many Christians don't know that. Though they've read in the Bible that Jesus is the great High Priest, who ever lives to make intercession for them, they've never learned how to take full advantage of that part of His ministry. They've never been taught how to connect with His High Priestly ministry by faith. That's a major problem, because to live in THE BLESSING the way God intends, every believer has to make that connection; and that is not just attending what is called church and doing good deeds. We must all learn how to trust Jesus, not only as our Savior and Lord, but as "The Apostle And High Priest of our profession (confession)." To do that, the first thing we need to understand is what a priest actually does. Instead of thinking of him, simply as a religious person wearing a special robes and collars, we must realize that a true priest is a minister's: someone who is legally appointed as an agent, or an authorized person who administers a service, aid or some kind of care. A minister is someone who has been given charge over something and is responsible to execute or carry it into effect. The word administrator is derived from the word minister. Descriptors include: manage, conduct, furnish, supply, dispense, distribute, direct, control, superintend, furnish help or to be of service. Some nations use the term minister to referred to positions of governmental authority. The person in charge of the treasury. For instance, might be called the Minister of finance, or someone responsible for overseeing relationships with other countries might be called the Minister of foreign affairs.
