Priests in every home.



1 Peter 2:9–10

But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light. Once you were not a people, but now you are the people of God; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.

God's Old Testament house of worship — the temple — was filled with priests who served him.

Years have passed, but there's still a temple & priests.

You're both. You're the building (read yesterday's devo!) and you're also the people working in it. The good things you do by faith are your sacrifices of thanks to God.

You're not just someone who goes to church... you are the church.

God has specially chosen & equipped you made you a part of his “people.”

Where do you see the special places God has equipped and formed you to be a part of this royal priesthood?

1 Peter 3:21–22 This water symbolizes baptism that now saves you also—not the removal of dirt from the body but the pledge of a clear conscience toward God. It saves you by the resurrection of Jesus Christ, who has gone into heaven and is at God’s right hand—with angels, authorities and powers in submission to him. Read the context "Don't drag that in the house. Hose down outside first." Some messes don't even make it in the front door. My moral mess is dirtier than a day of working outside....
