Think About Yourself?

Good morning! I want to share with you about the "value." The word, assess means the value of.

Theme: What do you think about yourself?

Leviticus 27:12… the priest shall value it, whether it be good or bad; as thou value it, who art the priest, so it shall be (KJV).

In the Old Testament, when someone who are poor, brought an animal to the priest, the priest check it over how much it is worth. "The priest will decide a price for the animal, according to whether it is good or bad; as the priest decides, that is the price for the animal. It will become holy  when a person promise sacrifice to the Lord" (Lev. 27:9-13 NCV).

Actually, you have more authority than the Levitical priests of the Old Testament. They were of the old priesthood of mortal men. But you are of the greater and “forever” priesthood of Jesus! (Hebrews 7:8, 17) Not only that, you are a king-priest. (Revelation 1:6) In other words, you are king as well! And as a king, your assessment is also binding because where the word of a king is, there is power! (Ecclesiastes 8:4)

Today, you are a priest because of Jesus’ blood. (Revelation 1:5–6) And “as you, the priest, value it, so it shall be”. If you value your life to be filled with divine health, so it will be for you. So what do you think about yourself? A child of the King? Yes, your Heavenly Father said, " All that I have is yours for asking." Remember the story of an older brother of a prodigal son who came home and had a party for the lost brother? The Father said, "All that I have is yours. Just ask for it."

Chorus: "A Child of the King!"
"I'm a child of the King,
 A child of the King!
With Jesus my Savior,
I'm a child of the King!"
(Lyrics: Harriet E. Buell, Sing His Praise).

So value yourself that you are a child of a King! Ask Him what you need today!
