DAILY READINGS: 1 Samuel 4-5; Isaiah 47; 2 Corinthians 8
But the priests, the Levites…they shall come near to Me to minister unto Me, and they shall stand before Me to offer unto Me the fat and the blood, saith the Lord God. Ezekiel 44:15
Believers, as holy priests, can minister to God and as royal priests to God’s people. The highest service is to minister to God Himself. The Lord’s Supper is the meeting of the Church most suitable for ministering delight to His heart. What is that which delights Him? “This is my beloved Son in whom I am well pleased". May our remembrances have grace to leave the royal ministry to other occasions and, at the Lord’s Supper’s brief hour, minister to the Father’s heart. —J. Boyd Nicholson
We share Thy joy in Him who sitteth there,
Chiefest of thousands, fairer than the fair. —W. B. Dick
