Praying from Hebrews 8:3 relating to Priesthood, Sacrifice, Redemption.

Dear Lord, I thank you for appointing high priests to offer gifts and sacrifices on our behalf. I pray that you would guide and bless these priests as they carry out their duties. Help them to always have something to offer, so that we may be reconciled to you through their intercession. May we always remember the sacrifice of your Son, Jesus Christ, who offered himself as the ultimate gift for our salvation. Amen.

Verse: For every high priest is appointed to offer both gifts and sacrifices. Therefore it is necessary that this high priest also have something to offer.
Hebrews 8:3

This is a Command. The verse is commanding the reader to acknowledge the necessity of a high priest who has something to offer.
