“Make a plate of pure gold, and engrave on it, like the engraving of a signet, HOLINESS TO THE LORD. Fasten a blue cord to it to attach it to the turban; it is to be on the front of the turban… it will be on Aaron’s forehead continually, so that they will be acceptable to the Lord.” (Exodus 28:36-38)
Do you know why God commanded Moses to engrave “HOLINESS TO THE LORD” on a plate of pure gold, to be worn by the high priest? It means that when God looks at the high priest’s forehead, He sees the people He represents as holy and righteous, and blessings from God flow to them unceasingly.
Today, we – the Zadokites who are in Christ Jesus, having received the free gift of salvation – are spiritually walking around with this crown that identifies us as “HOLINESS TO THE LORD”. Because in Christ, we have the golden band of righteousness conscious in our mind, fastened around our spirit with a blue thread of grace.
We, who are a chosen, holy, and royal priesthood, are always bearing this spiritual band engraved in golden letters, which reads “HOLINESS TO THE LORD” in our entire consciousness. This is a fulfillment of this golden Scripture and a witness to our High Priest, Jesus Christ.
Because He who loved us and washed us from our sins in His own blood has made us kings and priests to God our Father, and we are accepted in this Beloved forever.( Ephesians 1:6)
