    Summary

    DeVern emphasizes the restoration of a true priesthood within the church, highlighting the importance of genuine worship, praise, and thanksgiving. He contrasts God's approach to promotion with the world's marketing strategies, asserting that God focuses on the quality of His people rather than on advertising. DeVern references Exodus 19, where God calls Israel to be a 'kingdom of priests' and a 'holy nation,' indicating that true worship stems from a deep relationship with God. He discusses the characteristics of a people who are a 'peculiar treasure,' emphasizing that the treasure is the Lord Himself within them. DeVern also illustrates the significance of intercession, using the example of King Jehoshaphat, who sought God's guidance in battle through prayer and worship. He stresses that true victory comes from dependence on God rather than human effort. The message culminates in a call for believers to stand together in faith, worship, and holiness, reflecting God's order and purpose in their lives.
