Devotions on F.I.R.E. Year One

DAY 40 OF 365

Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap (Galatians 6:7).

Are you providing for those who care for your soul?

God’s primary means of meeting His shepherds’ needs consists of the saints’ offerings. Concerning the wave offering, Moses writes, “And the priest shall burn the fat on the altar, but the breast shall be Aaron’s and his sons” (Leviticus 7:31). The people provide for the priests in the Old Testament. Paul states six reasons why pastors should similarly be cared for by the flock in 1 Corinthians 9:1-14. Furthermore, Paul gives the following command in Galatians 6:6: “Let him who is taught the word share in all good things with him who teaches.” The very next verse shows the danger of ignoring this teaching (review Galatians 6:7). As the Old Testament saints were to give, the New Testament believers are likewise commanded (1 Corinthians 16:1-2).

Employment Point: Honor God by faithfully caring for His shepherds.
