Manner of Melchizedek

Read:  Psalm 110 / Proverbs 29 / Leviticus 15 / 1 Thess. 2

Psalm 110:3,4 Thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power... The LORD hath sworn, and will not repent, Thou art a Priest forever after the order of Melchizedek.
Proverbs 29:25 The fear of man bringeth a snare: but whoso putteth his trust in the LORD shall be safe.
Leviticus 15:31 Thus shall ye separate the children of Israel from their uncleanness; that they die not in their uncleanness.
1 Thessalonians 2:4 As we were allowed of God to be put in trust with the gospel, even so we speak; not as pleasing men, but God, which trieth our hearts.

The manner of the Priest foretold,
Melchizedek forevermore,
Is found in Christ, whom we behold
And, at His footstool, we adore. 

Our safety is in Christ our Savior;
Our privilege is to be allowed
To preach the Gospel of His favor
To please our Savior, not the crowd.
