DCLM Daily Manna 23rd August 2021 Devotional – Equal Treatment, Please! written by Pastor W.F Kumuyi

DCLM DAILY MANNA DEVOTIONAL FOR 23RD AUGUST 2021

TOPIC: EQUAL TREATMENT, PLEASE!

TEXT: Leviticus 14:21-32

KEY VERSE: “And the priest shall put of the oil that is in his hand upon the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot, upon the place of the blood of the trespass offering.” – (Leviticus 14:28)

DCLM Daily Manna 23 August 2021 Devotional Message:

God is no respecter of persons. Before Him, everyone is equal. He treats the rich and the poor alike. In the same vein, partiality, discrimination, segregation, favouritism, nepotism or tribalism should not be seen in the fellowship of believers. There should be no special treatment for anyone on account of close relationship, wealth, education, tribe or nationality as such traits do not make us any better than the people of the world.

The passage under consideration shows the gracious provision the Lord made for the poor lepers who could not afford animals for the sin offering and burnt offerings. They were allowed to offer birds instead (two turtledoves or young pigeons) while the cleansing ritual followed the same pattern for both the rich and the poor. The poor were never marginalised. They were as welcome to God’s altar of grace and mercy as the rich.

This implies that everyone, regardless of tribe, race, age or level of education needs the blood of Christ for justification. Without faith in the blood of the Lamb, there can not be salvation.

Just as the celebration of restoration of a leper to the fellowship of the family and the congregation at large was usually attended with joy and pomp, so should we receive a backslider who has been restored to fellowship. It should be a thing of joy for the individual, the family and the entire congregation. Sinners should be made to know that there is joy in heaven when they repent of their sins.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Christ died for all humanity.

THE BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Psalm 19-23
