This act is deeply rooted in the understanding of holiness and dedication to the divine purpose. Throughout the Scriptures, consecration is portrayed as both a divine initiative and a human response, reflecting the covenant relationship between God and His people. Old Testament Context In the Old Testament, consecration is often associated with the priesthood, the tabernacle, and the temple. The Hebrew word for consecration, "qadash," implies making something holy or setting it apart for sacred use. The consecration of Aaron and his sons as priests is a prominent example. In <a href="/exodus/29.htm">Exodus 29:1</a>, God commands Moses, "This is what you are to do to consecrate them, so that they may serve Me as priests." The process involved sacrifices, washing, anointing, and the wearing of sacred garments, symbolizing purification and dedication to God's service. The consecration of the tabernacle and its furnishings is another key aspect. In <a href="/exodus/40-9.htm">Exodus 40:9</a>, God instructs Moses, "Take the anointing oil and anoint the tabernacle and everything in it; consecrate it and all its furnishings, and it will be holy." This act signified that the tabernacle was set apart as the dwelling place of God's presence among His people. New Testament Context In the New Testament, the concept of consecration extends to the life of every believer. Through the sacrificial work of Jesus Christ, believers are called to live consecrated lives. <a href="/romans/12.htm">Romans 12:1</a> exhorts, "Therefore I urge you, brothers, on account of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God, which is your spiritual service of worship." This verse highlights the call for Christians to dedicate their entire being to God, living in a manner that reflects His holiness. The consecration of Jesus Himself is a central theme in the New Testament. In <a href="/john/17-19.htm">John 17:19</a>, Jesus prays, "For them I sanctify Myself, so that they too may be sanctified by the truth." Here, Jesus sets Himself apart for the purpose of redeeming humanity, demonstrating the ultimate act of consecration. Consecration in Worship and Daily Life Consecration is not limited to specific rituals or ceremonies but is a continuous aspect of worship and daily living. Believers are encouraged to consecrate their hearts and actions to God, seeking to align their lives with His will. In <a href="/2_timothy/2-21.htm">2 Timothy 2:21</a>, Paul writes, "If a man cleanses himself from the latter, he will be an instrument for noble purposes, made holy, useful to the Master, and prepared to do any good work." This passage underscores the importance of personal holiness and readiness for God's service. Symbolism and Significance The symbolism of consecration is rich throughout the Bible. It often involves elements such as anointing oil, sacrifices, and the laying on of hands, each representing aspects of purification, dedication, and empowerment by the Holy Spirit. The anointing oil, for instance, is a symbol of the Holy Spirit's presence and the setting apart of individuals for divine purposes. Consecration is a profound expression of the believer's relationship with God, reflecting a commitment to live according to His statutes and purposes. It is both a privilege and a responsibility, calling for a life marked by holiness, obedience, and devotion to the Lord.<a name="top" id="top"></a><div class="vheading2">Topical Bible Verses</div><a href="/deuteronomy/18-18.htm">Deuteronomy 18:18</a> I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brothers, like to you, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak to them all that I shall command him.
