Cognate: 3008 leitourgéō (from
3011 /leitourgós, "someone who officially serves sovereign and community") – properly, to
minister in an official (technical, authorized) capacity, especially on behalf of the community. For the believer,
3011 (
leitourgós) refers to the priestly-ministering they give to God – which automatically impacts (for eternity) all who witness it. Because each believer is an
official priest of God, their ministering to the Lord is equally profound with every "living sacrifice" offered up in faith (cf. Ro 12:1-3,15:27). Thus it
also carries out His plan for
His people.
