Sanctify Yourselves

Sanctify Yourselves is a command given a number of times when people were preparing for a blessing from God.

Leviticus 11:44. For I AM the LORD* your God! You will therefore Sanctify Yourselves and you will be holy, for I AM holy. Neither will you defile yourselves with any manner of creeping thing that creeps upon the earth. 45. For I AM the LORD* Who brings you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God. You will therefore be holy, for I AM holy! (1 Peter 1:16)
