2024 TEENS VOLUME RHAPSODY OF REALITIES – MESSAGE.
Our opening verse shows that you and I are royal priests; isn’t this just amazing? What do priests do, you ask? Well, the scriptures show us three important roles of the priest: he’s to offer gifts, intercede in prayer, and teach the knowledge of God. These are the responsibilities the Lord Jesus would have us carry out on earth, and by studying the writings of the prophets concerning the millennial reign of Christ and by looking at what Israel will be doing at that time, you’ll easily understand our roles as priests today.
The millennial reign of Christ—the one-thousand-year reign of Christ on earth—is the period of Israel’s restoration and their exercise of the Christ-life, which we already had throughout the Church age. Thus, the millennial reign isn’t towards the Church; the Church already reigned on earth for two thousand years THROUGH Jesus Christ (Romans 5:17) and will reign WITH Him in the millennial period.
So, when do we function as priests? When do we teach the knowledge of God, intercede for everyone, and offer gifts? NOW! Our priesthood is now! Revelation 1:6 says, “…Jesus Christ…made us kings and priests to His God and Father, to Him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.” Revelation 5:10 also says He has “…made us kings and priests to our God; and we shall reign on the earth.” We’re in office as king-priests of God on earth.
He’s given us the responsibility to alter the course of events and happenings in our world today through intercession, sacrifices of praise to the Name of the Lord, and the propagation of His truth in all the earth. Glory to God!
