Obtenha a appHoliness: A Study In LeviticusExemplo
What does it say?
The worshipper’s family shared a meal from the fellowship offering, celebrating unhindered communion with the Lord. Once again, the obedience of God’s people provided the needs of the priests.
What does it mean?
Time dedicated to focus on companionship with God and others was built into Israel’s law. The fellowship offering reinforced that unhindered communion with the Lord requires being clean and pure in His sight. The communal meal following the offering was designed to magnify God’s goodness to their family or to commend the taking of a vow before God. Such times of celebration passed on a proper view of God from one generation to the next.
How should I respond?
Does your family stop to focus on the goodness of God? In America, we express thanksgiving in November, but why not make it a recurring theme throughout the year? Plan a meal in which each family member can share a specific blessing of God from the week. Explain to children ahead of time what the meal is about and have them participate in preparing the meal and setting the table. What “unclean” thought, habit, or attitude needs to be removed so you can enjoy unhindered fellowship with God and with each other? Don’t wait until the end of the year; celebrate God’s goodness now!
