The prophet's dictionary guide to the supernatural

839. Melchizedek—The eternal creation priest-king of Almighty God who in Genesis 14:18 met Abram after his battle and victory over the five kings. Melchizedek served as a divine ensi, or priest-king, in Jerusalem in the ancient world. Jerusalem, ancient Salem, was the lone such city for the Almighty. Melchizedek as God’s priest-king confirmed Abram’s covenant with the Almighty by officially administering holy communion between the patriarch and God Most High. The act signified the ratification of the covenant the Lord made with Abram. Melchizedek is also mentioned in Psalm 110:4 as the eternal priest of the Most High God. His name means “king of righteousness.” He is later discussed in the New Testament as official administrator of the Lord’s heavenly priestly institution that foreshadowed the New Creation priestly order instituted by Jesus Christ. Melchizedek foretokened the royal priesthood of the New Creation as the prototype of God’s fusion of priest and king forever, spoken of in Revelation 1:6. The uniqueness of his ministry was that he kept the priestly mediation between heaven and earth. Serving as the priest of all creation, he officiated at the only Creator altar on the planet to propitiate the damage done by Lucifer’s rebellion and the subsequent demonic host evicted from heaven to terrorize the earth. See Hebrews 5 and 7–10. Melchizedek’s is the order over which our Lord Jesus became High Priest as written in Psalm 110; Hebrews 6:20 and 7:11, 15, 21. Melchizedek is the active priest of the New Testament tithes and offerings presented to Creator God from what is read in Hebrews 7:8. He lives today under the high priestly ministry of the Lord Jesus Christ and, according to Hebrews 7, was not earth-born but heaven-created. See Jerusalem, Ensi, Priests, and Priesthood. 840. Melchizedek Priesthood—The eternal order of priests who minister on behalf of creation and man to God to atone for the sin that erupted in creation after Lucifer’s rebellion. The Melchizedek order existed, and still exists, to appease the Lord for the bloodshed that occurred in creation. Melchizedek spearheaded that priestly ministration as its chief until the Lord Jesus completed His word and assumed the position of High Priest of eternity. Christ’s New Creation church is now included in that eternal priestly order as the royal nation of kings and priests to God according to the apostle Peter and the Revelation. Hebrews 6:20. 841. Meni—From Isaiah 65:11, the god of destiny and fate, worshipped for good fortune. Partnered with Gad, the god of good fortune. 842. Mentor—One who coaches, instructs, and refines another for a professional career or service.
