Exodus 19:6 And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and a holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel.
1 Peter 1:14 As obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance: 15 But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation; 16 Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.
Holiness is the symbol of our Christianity; It is what it is, and there is nothing you or anyone can do about it whether you like it or not. The purpose of our redemption is to reconcile us to God; our sin has separated us from God who created us in His image as stainless as He is. Knowing who you are in Christ will help you to live a holy life without stress; the reason why you are still struggling with sin is that you have no idea of your true identity. If Esau knew the magnitude of his destiny he wouldn't have let Jacob have it because of mere food; he would have gone three days without food and drink to preserve his destiny. By the time he realised how big his destiny was, it was too late to recover it but that will not happen to you, in Jesus' name. It may not look like you are carrying anything inside of you, but that should not be the problem because when the time comes, it will show. God says that you are a holy nation and that a small one shall become a strong nation (Isaiah 60:22. 1 Peter 2:9). so, friends, you are not an ordinary person, you are a strong and holy nation by redemption, and to walk in the reality of your new personality you need to change your mentality. Hebrews 12:16 (Lest there be any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright. 17 For ye know how that afterward, when he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected: for he found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears).
Your call into the life of holiness is non-negotiable because as a priest you cannot offer sacrifice to God if your garment is stained. Without holiness, you cannot manifest your authority as a royal priest. As a priest, you are called to represent people in the presence of God and if your garment is stained you won't be able to access the throne of grace to make intercession for the sick or the afflicted. Satan knows exactly what he is doing; the scripture is very clear about these things; the fact that you don't want to abide by it does not change the truth, it is what it is. All liars are children of the devil. I am not the one who says it, it is the scripture and if you don't want to be called the children of the devil, then stop lying and drop every evil habit that links you to him. John 8:44 (Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it). He was stalking Joshua the high priest and staining his priestly garment until God intervened and Joshua received a change of garment (Zechariah 3:1-7). God says you cannot be called his children unless you are holy. Don't be deceived by the mercy drops blessings that you are receiving that does not qualify you to make heaven after all He causes rain to fall upon the righteous and the sinners. Matthew 5:45 (That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. 48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect). 1 Peter 2:9 (But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light): God wants to be proud of you, He wants you to manifest the light you are carrying so that the people in the dark can see the light through you. He wants you to be wealthy; and be a blessing to your generation so that men will sing His praises through you. You are a chosen generation; you have been separated from the world; don't allow the world to draw you to itself. You are ordained a priest to overcome sin, so, don´t be a victim because you are to prevail where others travail (1 John 5:4). The good news is that Jesus Christ is ready to set you free and restore you even right now. John 8:34 (Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin. 35 And the servant abideth not in the house forever: but the Son abideth ever. 36 If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed). Friends, you cannot continue to stay outside, there is room for you inside with your Father. In case you are not yet His son, here is another opportunity to become one today by praying this salvation prayer below and be blessed, in Jesus' name
Lord Jesus, I come to you today, I am a sinner, and I cannot help myself, forgive me my sins, and cleanse me with your precious blood. Deliver me from sin and Satan to serve the living God. Lord Jesus, I accept you as my Lord and saviour. Now I know I am Born Again, Amen.
NENE ISAH,
