Priest Place

God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;Hebrews 1:1-2

It is true that we all have access to the Father by his Spirit dwelling in us (born again believers), but some have special relationship with God more than others, because of deeper and constant fellowship with him always. It is in this fellowship, we'd develop the Fruits of the Spirit in us(received at new birth), otherwise the fruits once starved, will never really develop to maturity. If it's not developed, then one will be lagging behind in so many ways.

Luke 13:6-9 says, 
"He spake also this parable; A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard; and he came and sought fruit thereon, and found none. [7] Then said he unto the dresser of his vineyard, Behold, these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and find none: cut it down; why cumbereth it the ground? [8] And he answering said unto him, Lord, let it alone this year also, till I shall dig about it, and dung it: [9] And if it bear fruit, well: and if not, then after that thou shalt cut it down."

There are talents/gifts, God has given us, He expects us to engage those talents, and make profits with it or them. He expects us to produce fruits.
What happened, when we choose to remain baby Christian all our life (equivalent to, hiding your talent)? You become unproductive, subsequently a failure.
Many mistakes, riches for success. Riches can be part of success, but not, in its entirety.
Discovering your purpose and working in it, should be one's primary objective. Riches and others are additions.
From Luke 13:8 above, we saw the dresser (PRIEST, in a figure), pleading on behalf of the fig tree (FLOCKS, also in a figure) for more time. So the priest pray some more, and fast some more, putting in extra hours to see the fork become productive. So they can discover their place on time and be productive, before time run out on them. Because, if they don't become fruitful, they will surely be cut short,(Luke 13:1-5).

Brethren, you will reckon that the task of the dresser is important. I have heard people talk down on preachers, like they're nothing,(2 Corinthians 4:4). I know there are many fakes, even the Bible warned us about it. But it does not mean, all are fake. Without the few genuine ones on the altar praying, fasting and interceding, the whole world will be in a mess. The world is in a bit of mess right now, and people are complaining and confused already. imagine what it will be like, when there is absolutely non interceding any more; it will be disastrous.
That you have access to God, does not make the place of the priest void. Someone, at some point, thought you how to hear from God; don’t try to rob others from the privilege for the to develop to maturity.
We are expected, to all come to the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, UNTO THE MEASURE OF THE STATURE OF THE FULLNESS OF CHRIST, Ephesians 4:13. 
God bless and lift you, in Jesus name!

Happy New Month, Jesus is Lord!
