Reformed Doctrine Daily Devotions

Today’s devotion comes from Exodus 28:36-38.

“You shall also make a plate of pure gold and shall engrave on it, like the engravings of a seal, ‘Holy to the LORD.’  You shall fasten it on a blue cord, and it shall be on the turban;  it shall be at the front of the turban.  It shall be on Aaron’s forehead, and Aaron shall take away the iniquity of the holy things which the sons of Israel consecrate, with regard to all their holy gifts;  and it shall always be on his forehead, that they may be accepted before the LORD.”  Exodus 28:36-38.

God provided a gold plate for Aaron to wear on his forehead with the engraving “Holy to the LORD” which leads us to meditate on the fact that we too are chosen to be “a holy people to the LORD”.

“For you are a holy people to the LORD your God;  the LORD your God has chosen you to be a people for His own possession out of all the peoples who are on the face of the earth.”  Deuteronomy 7:6.

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and blameless before Him.  …”  Ephesians 1:3-4.
