Numbers 3-4 God directed Moses to guide Aaron in selecting those workers to erect and dismantle the Tabernacle for “moving day” and established duties that brought order by choosing the clan of the Levites with one leader, Aaron. He was to have many followers/workers for the erecting and dismantling of the Tabernacle in an orderly fashion.

Just as the tribe of Levi was responsible for serving Aaron, so likewise, today, we have many servant duties and responsibilities for our churches’ leaders, elders, and deacons. Designation of duties brings order where there might be chaos. [1Cor 14:40] God wanted the children of Israel to remember that all work in the kingdom of God is royal service, whether upfront or behind the scenes. The psalmist noted: “I had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of the wickedness.” [Ps 84:10]

God has a role for you to serve in His kingdom work; where has God placed you to serve? Are you praying for the servant leaders in your church?
