In the Old Testament, the priest was commanded to speak over the children of Israel every day, Numbers 6:24-27:
24‘May the LORD bless you
and keep you;
25 May the LORD cause His face to shine upon you
and be gracious to you;
26 May the LORD lift up His countenance toward you
and give you peace.’
27 So they shall put My name on the Israelites, and I will bless them.”
Now Jesus has become the High priest over those born into the Kingdom, and in his name, he has lifted us up so that we sit together with him, in heavenly places, for above the depravity of sin.
Ephesians 2:6
And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus
