Leviticus 4:25 NLT
“Then the priest will dip his finger in the blood of the sin offering and put it on the horns of the altar for burnt offerings. He will pour out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar.”
Ripple effects
A lot of times, our errors do not only impact us, but they could also affect those around us. And the same with our sins; for instance, any sin committed by any family member could cause a ripple effect that will affect other members of the family one way or the other. In today’s referenced scripture, God demanded that the priest dip his fingers in the blood of the sin offering brought by any erring elder. And point to note here is that the priest didn’t sin, but he must dip his finger in the blood and then put the blood on the horns of the altars of burnt offerings. We might conclude that what else was the job of a Priest? His job responsibilities varied, but he was mainly assigned to bring all before the Lord and present offerings on their behalf. However, if an elder ignorantly sinned, some of the time required for worship would be diverted to other things. On this note, friends, let us live our lives well so that the time dedicated to worship would not be turned to other things.
Prayer
Rock of Ages, please help me to continually hide myself in You such that I will always abstain from iniquity, in Jesus’s name, amen.
