Common to Holy Take the grain offering that is left of the Lord‘s food offerings, and eat it unleavened beside the altar, for it is most holy. Leviticus 10:12 In this chapter of Leviticus, Aaron’s sons had just offered an unacceptable sacrifice to God and were consumed by fire. Now their brothers had taken their place. God told Aaron (and his sons), “You are to distinguish between the holy and the common, and between the unclean and the clean…” (Leviticus 10:10) This is the inherent problem of a loving, holy God. He loves people, but He is Holy, and cannot look on sin. Mercifully and graciously, God the Father provided the answer in God the Son by the power of God the Holy Spirit through a common woman, Mary. By faith, sinful people become holy through Jesus. The apostle Paul talks about how faith makes humans holy: “Whoever thus serves Christ is acceptable to God and approved by men.” (Romans 14:18) Because of Jesus, the Holy Spirit now comes alongside common people to pray to the Father and receive uncommon answers. Come before the Lord in faith, believing He hears and answers your prayers for your loved ones and your nation. He’ll be pleased with your sacrifice of intercession. The Presidential Prayer Teams
