The service of the tabernacle of the congregation

12/18/2017

And Moses, and Aaron, and all the congregation of the children of Israel, did to the Levites according unto all that the LORD commanded Moses concerning the Levites, so did the children of Israel unto them. And the Levites were purified, and they washed their clothes; and Aaron offered them as an offering before the LORD; and Aaron made an atonement for them to cleanse them. And after that went the Levites in to do their service in the tabernacle of the congregation before Aaron, and before his sons: as the LORD had commanded Moses concerning the Levites, so did they unto them. (Num. 8:20-22)
     The servants of the Lord in the tabernacle were dedicated unto the Lord who had called them unto Himself. The Levites were set apart and sanctified, made holy by the Lord, and offered unto the Lord for a perpetual service in the tabernacle of the Lord. All the people obeyed God and set the tribe of Levi apart from the rest of the people and dedicated them unto the Lord in their service unto Him and the people of God in the tabernacle.
 
     God had declared that the Levites would be holy unto God, set apart because God had redeemed the firstborn in their exodus from Egypt. The children of Israel dedicated and consecrated the Levites to their service with ceremonial washings and offerings to demonstrate their holiness unto the Lord and to offer them unto the Lord in their service unto Him. He called the Levites to a perpetual service of offerings and work in the tabernacle and eventually the Temple as His servants and ministers of the people.
 
     God calls all of His people to service unto Him and we are dedicated unto Him and many ordained in recognition of that service. God has commanded us to offer ourselves unto Him as living sacrifices, holy and acceptable, cleansed by the blood of Jesus Christ, and purified by His grace because of our faith in Him and His finished and perfect work on the Cross of Calvary. He determines where we should serve Him in ministry, missions, and discipleship, and wants all His people to witness of Him that others may know and repent of their sins. His people are priests and ministers, to bring others to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ in repentance and faith until all who will come have received His wonderful gift of Salvation.
 
     God has sent those of us that know Him out into this world to reach the lost that they might be saved from sin. He desires that His people strive to be holy and obedient unto Him that we might minister to those around us who are hurting and in need as He provides. We serve others, equipped with the Word of reconciliation and righteousness, rightly divided and fitly spoken, that they may see Christ in us, the hope of Glory. Our GOD has commanded us to love one another with an unfeigned love, even as He first loved us, and to disciple one another in the Word of GOD so that we may all grow in grace and in the Knowledge of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. Our Lord has commissioned those who are His with the Gospel of Jesus Christ, to go where He sends us in the power of the Holy Spirit. As we go, we are to proclaim the Good News of forgiveness through repentance and reconciliation with the Father through faith in His Son, that those who believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Messiah of GOD might have life in His Name.
 
       GOD is not willing that any should perish, but that all would come to repentance and the knowledge of the Truth. Jesus loves you and wants to establish a covenant relationship with you that is real and personal. Surrender to Him on His terms and He will give you a brand new life of discipleship and fellowship with Him that is abundant and everlasting. GOD calls you to faith in Christ and His finished and perfect work on the Cross of Calvary to pay your sIn debt. He has provided the only way of reconciliation with GOD, forgiveness from GOD, and Salvation through Jesus Christ, the Son of GOD who is GOD the Son, to give you a new life in Christ. Turn away from yourself and your sIn and turn to Him alone for eternal Life, now and always.


In Christ,
Jefferson Sweet
