Touched by God – Becoming Holy Through His Presence

What makes something holy? It is not appearance, value, or rarity—it is God’s presence.  Consider the bread and wine used at the Last Supper. These were not luxurious or rare items. They were simple, everyday elements—bread and wine, common to every table. Yet when Jesus took them, blessed them, and declared their significance, they became sacred symbols of His body and blood. The ordinary became extraordinary because of His touch.This principle runs throughout Scripture. In the Old Testament, God declared that the altar would be “most holy,” and that whatever touched it would also become holy (Exodus 29:37). The holiness was not in the material—it was in God’s presence upon it.
