THE PRIESTLY MINISTRY OF EVERY BELIEVER
By Pastor David Ogbueli
Genesis 1:26 ;
This is the original plan of God.
Let us make man in our image after our likeness and let them have dominion.
Dominion was God’s plan for making man from Day One.
He wanted us to have dominion.
There were two Adams. The first Adam messed up the program, while the second Adam redeemed it back to us.
In heaven there are three altars.
God rules from an altar.
And to rule any territory, you need an altar. To win territorial warfare, you need one.
In the outer court, there is an altar. In the Holy Place, there is one.
In the Holiest of Holies, there is another one. That is where God sits. This is what is called the Mercy Seat. This is where Jesus took the blood He spilled and laid it.
When Moses and the Israelites were in the wilderness, God asked Moses to build a prototype.
And so, Moses made a tabernacle.
And God told Him to put exactly like we have in heaven, those three altars.
And all through the year, the priest will go to the second dimension and minister. But once in a year, the High Priest will take blood into the Holiest of Holies and apply it on the horns of the altar, and then redemption will come upon the whole nation.
God said Let us make man in our Image and after our likeness and let them have dominion.
From that day, God has always wanted a son (Man) to run the earth on His behalf.
So, He brought in those two ministries required to have Dominion.
These are the priests and the Kings.
Adam’s priestly ministry dealt with his Creator, but his kingly ministry dealt with the earth.
Being a king does not only talk about politics. Adenuga who owns Globacom does not need to do any election to exercise his dominion.
The power lies in two sources.
It is so amazing that white men who come to Africa to do contracts understand these things. They go to consult deities.
What we call native doctors is just a copy of Godly priesthood.
Anything that has to do with ordinances, and lands, and laws of nature, are dealt with by the priest.
Jesus is the King of Kings and He is also our High Priest. God operates on both. Adam also was like that.
In the Old testament, you are either a King or a Priest. But in the New, Jesus made us both of these things.
Jesus gave us exactly what He has.
You are not going to have dominion, if you don’t study and understand how to function as both a King and a Priest.
A king without the backing of an altar is empty.
A king needs a priest. Priesthood is the foundation on which we build the Kingly ministry.
📖 The Bible said;
" And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth. "~ Revelation 5:10
Man’s redemption was purchased by sacrifice. It was not purchased with money, or any other thing. It was purchased by the highest sacrifice, which is blood sacrifice, especially the blood of God Himself.
Redemption could not be purchased with money. God needed one man that would obey Him, so that He would do something that will affect generations to come.
And He found that man in Abraham. And the same point on Mount Moriah, where Abraham sacrificed Isaac, is the same spot where Jesus was crucified.
A lot of people do not understand exchange and the altar. The power of a believer is also determined by the power of His altar.
The altar does not function without sacrifice, but a priest does not function without his altar.
Altar is so powerful that God had to put one in our spirit, called the heart.
If you always keep it clean, no matter where you are, you can make contact with heaven and there will be a response.
We are the temple of the living God. We are mobile altars.
Anytime Satan is having dominion in any territory, or a family or even a locality, or business, and people are not able to deal with Him, there are two revelations that deals with Him.
1. The Revelation of the Cross (That’s the Blood)
2. The Revelation of the Believer’s Authority ( the Name of Jesus.)
Anytime you see believers being defeated, they do not understand the dominion mandate.
The victory is not found in struggling, or in trying. It is not found in trying to please God. It is found in the finished work of Christ.
If the revelation of the cross is taught to a believer, and he has it in him, he can put the entire demons in hell to flight.
Sometimes, we are like sleeping giants.
All we need is to wake up.
Whenever you see war and confusion, there are forces of darkness that are driving it.
If a church is weak in prayer, that church is weak indeed.
If a church is weak in giving, that church is double weak.
If a church is weak in worship, that church is triple weak.
Where the blood ministry is absent, satan can gain access.
If you are a believer and you are not a giver, you are undermining your altar.
📖 The Bible said;
"And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;
" And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth. "~ Revelations 5:9-10
You fall or rise from an altar.
Dominion is a combination of the natural and the supernatural. But you first sort out the supernatural, and then come out and do the natural.
The Horizontal that deals with the physical, which is the Kingly ministry.
📖 The Bible said;
" 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 "~ 1 Peter 2:9
A Royal Priesthood.
In the Old Testament, only one person, the High Priest could enter into the Holiest. And he did it once in a year.
But today, we all can enter, with the Blood of Jesus.
Remember: That evening that Jesus died, the day He shed His blood, that curtain was torn into two.
God is saying that the door into His presence has been split into two.
But the protocol is that you cannot come on your own merit, but by the blood of Jesus.
When you want access to the Most Powerful God. The key is the blood of Jesus.
“I come not in my own righteousness, but in the righteousness of Jesus.”
Another thing that gives us boldness when we come to God is that we have a High Priest.
When our own priesthood cannot carry us, we plug into His own.
There are levels of authority and there are levels of glory.
When your own authority cannot carry you, run to your pastor.
God Loves you as an individual.
Stop trying to earn God’s favour. It has been paid for already.
Stop trying to earn anything from God. Just come with faith. When Jesus paid for your salvation, He paid for your deliverance, and your healing, and your dominion, and your wealth.
That one ticket has everything in it.
Faith is the law of activation.
Three things are top priority in God’s plan for us.
📖 The Bible said;
"Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. "
~ 3 John 1:2
Success of your soul (Salvation).
Success of your health.
Financial Well being.
📖 The Bible said;
" For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him. "~ 2 Corinthians 5:21
This is how Christ dealt with sin, to give us Salvation.
📖 The Bible said;
“He has made Him who knew no sin, to be sin for us, so that we might be made the righteousness of God.”
When you confront Satan, sin consciousness will come up.
You have to know that your sins are washed away. You have to know that when you stand before God, it is not your good works that is used to judge you, but by the merit of Christ.
📖 The Bible said;
" For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.) "~ Romans 5;17
One of the major foundation of Dominion is the Cross (which is synonymous with the blood).
The righteousness we have is a gift, and it is a gift that is given to every child of God. In the Old Testament, you have to work and earn it, but in the New, they carried what Christ did and gave to us.
📖 The Bible said;
"Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life. "~ Romans 5:18
By the offense of one, judgment came upon all. But by the righteousness of one, the free gift came upon all men unto justification.
When you give your life to Christ, you come into the lineage of Christ.
When you are newly born into a physical family, you are a sinner, even if you have not done any wrong. This is because you have Adam’s sin in your blood.
That is the same way it is with righteousness. Once you become a Christian, you are righteous.
Christ died for us, so that we don’t have to die. So that we can have life.
He was made sin so that we can be made righteous. He was made poor, so that I can have His wealth. The enemy is not stronger than us, but he is tricky.
This is why we need to know these things. Satan’s biggest weapon against people is guilt, condemnation, inferiority complex, and a sense of unworthiness.
This makes people not to have faith.
People know that God is there. They know that He is powerful, but they do not know if God cares about them.
Do you know what righteousness truly means?
It means right standing before God.
It is the ability to stand before God without a sense of guilt, without a sense of condemnation, and without a sense of inferiority.
And why do we have this? Because of Jesus. If you remove Jesus, we are all naked. But in Him, we live, we move, and we have our being.
Find the message: The foundation for unshakable faith. One of them is the revelation of Righteousness.
Jesus has already paid for it. On our own, we are not worthy. We are not qualified. But the Blood of Jesus has made us righteous.
It is a gift and with that gift comes every other thing. No matter how far you have gone, walking with God, you will not never outgrow these truths.
It is the foundation that carries everything.
📖 Remember The Bible said;
"For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him. "~ 2 Corinthians 5:21
The only difference between a cub and a Lion is feeding.
Feed the cub. And give him time.
The difference between an eaglet and an Eagle is feeding.
Feed the eaglet and just give it time.
It manifests in glory.
Three Most Important Things God Has in His Heart For Us in 3 John 1:2 ;
▪️Spiritual Prosperity (Your Soul)
▪️Health Prosperity (Your Health)
▪️Financial Prosperity (Your Wealth)
For our sake, He was made poor, so that through His poverty, we might be made wealthy.
This is why, no matter who is angry, I cannot accept poverty.
Jesus took my curses, so that I can have the Blessing.
He took my sin, so that I can be made righteous. He took my poverty, so that I can be made rich.
📖 The Bible said;
"3:17 And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life. "
~ Genesis 3:17
In Genesis, when God cursed Adam, He cursed him with thorns and thistles.
Thorns became the symbol for suffering.
The original man was made to earn a living through sowing and reaping. Human beings created buying and selling. God created sowing and reaping.
God said “Seed is the Key.”
Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the Law by being made a curse for us.
To get us out of everything bad, Christ carried it upon Himself, so that we can take over His blessing and His righteousness and His authority.
I am a carrier of the Blessing.
This is why you need to speak, because the covenant is activated through speaking. And so it is in the negative supernatural.
The curse has been broken off my life.
I am a blessed man. I carry the blessing. Open your mouth now. Anything that is militating against your life, command it to lift.
