Day 171: Prayer for all the saints to see that they are priests of the gospel of God
Pray for the saints to be enlightened by the Lord to see that they are all New Testament priests of the gospel in a corporate priesthood, and for them to be energized by Him to carry out their daily duty of offering up saved sinners as the spiritual sacrifices that God desires (Rev. 1:5b-6a; Rom. 15:16; 1 Pet. 2:5).
Rev. 1:5b-6a—To Him who loves us and has released us from our sins by His blood and made us a kingdom, priests to His God and Father.
Rom. 15:16—That I might be a minister of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles, a laboring priest of the gospel of God, in order that the offering of the Gentiles might be acceptable, having been sanctified in the Holy Spirit.
1 Pet. 2:5—You yourselves also, as living stones, are being built up as a spiritual house into a holy priesthood to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
