Leviticus 14:17 NLT
”The priest will then apply some of the oil in his palm over the blood from the guilt offering that is on the lobe of the right ear, the thumb of the right hand, and the big toe of the right foot of the person being purified.“
Apply it
As humans, we possess a natural inclination towards self-preservation. We want to make sure that whatever we do, we get something in return. We feel motivated when there is a high possibility of rewards and hesitant when there is a chance of harm. However, in the Bible, God instructed the priests to perform their duties of purifying people without expecting anything in return. This selfless service required the priests to put the needs of others ahead of their own.
In the New Testament, Christ’s followers are regarded as priests. As priests, we must bear one another’s burdens, just as the Old Testament priests did. Bearing one another’s burdens means praying for one another and being our brother’s keeper, even when no one sees us. We should be ready to lend a listening ear, offer a helping hand, or financially support those in need. By doing so, we fulfill the teachings of Christ and demonstrate our love for one another. We should never forget that we are all equal in the eyes of God and that it is our responsibility to help each other out.
Prayer
Heavenly Father, I do not just want to profess that You are God but to exhibit all Christ-like attributes with sincerity in all my endeavours. In Jesus’s name, Amen.
