ANOINTED PRIESTS / NUMBERS 3:2-3

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Numbers 3:2-3

And these are the names of the sons of Aaron; Nadab the firstborn, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar. ³These are the names of the sons of Aaron, the priests which were anointed, whom he consecrated to minister in the priest’s office.

ANOINTED PRIESTS / NUMBERS 3:2-3

The purpose of anointing the priests was to “ordain” them to God’s service. This meant that their lives were set apart from all other things and given completely to serve God.

Likewise, in the New Testament, when believers are anointed by the Holy Spirit, they are set apart and empowered for service and witness in God’s kingdom (Acts 1:8; Acts 2:4).
The Hebrew name “Messiah” and the Greek name “Christ” both mean “the Anointed One” (Matthew 1:1). Christ did all of His works and ministry under the anointing of the Holy Spirit.
