Exodus 19:5-6, 25:8, 28:29, 33:14-16, 40:34-35; John 1:14, 2:18-22; Revelation 1:4-6, 5:10, 21:3; Matthew 6:9-10; Genesis 1:26, 2:15; Hebrews 7:17-26; 2 Corinthians 6:16 — Mankind was created in God’s image; literally, to bear His representation and carry His presence on Earth. Adam, Aaron, and the nation of Israel all failed to completely fulfil this priestly role, but Jesus came as the perfect presence-bearer and mediator, our great high priest. May we follow Jesus’ example, responding to this divine priestly calling to carry the precious, powerful presence of God to the world.

Matthew 27:11-54; Isaiah 55; 1 Corinthians 1:18; Romans 6:23 — The Cross of Calvary is confronting. We are confronted by the injustice and brutality of Christ’s death. We are confronted by the ugliness of our sin that deserves such a penalty. We are confronted by Christ’s divine humility contrasting our human pride. And we are confronted by the immeasurably high price He paid to save you and me.
