What does it say?
The Tabernacle was sustained by chosen, instructed men from the tribe of Levi. God called skilled and gifted people to serve in every aspect of religious life in Jerusalem.
What does it mean?
Picture all the activity in and around Israel’s Tabernacle. Individuals with diversity of ability and responsibility mobilized to accomplish the work of God’s tabernacle service. Some people were highly visible while others worked tirelessly behind the scenes with unity of purpose: to maintain the earthly place where Holy God promised to meet with sinful mankind above the mercy seat, the solid-gold cover on the Ark of the Covenant. The sacrifices they offered pointed to the perfect Lamb of God, the Lord Jesus Christ.
How should I respond?
Today, God calls people to faith in Jesus and leads them to serve Him through the local church. What gift or ability has the Lord given you? Have you found the place He wants you to serve in your church? Just as there was amazing diversity of work in the tabernacle, your church has diverse opportunities for service. Even the task that seems the least significant is vital so that everyone can serve with unity of purpose: to worship God and point others to the Lord Jesus Christ. How can you make yourself available to do the thing that seems “the least” if that is the opportunity God is giving you?
關於此計劃
Written following their return from exile, Chronicles is a theological retelling of Israel's monarchial history. In this post-exilic season, doubt and apathy plagued God's people and their trust in His promises. The Chronicler responds by reminding Israel of God's faithfulness from Adam to Moses to David and ultimately points toward a Greater David to come.
