民数记 第十八章|Book of Numbers 18【神是我们的产业】

引言:祭司利未人的服事是生与死的服事。
一、祭司的赏赐从神而来
赏赐的服事,服事本身就是赏赐
1.祭司的供职(V1-7)
祭司(亚伦的儿子)和利未人要一同承担管理圣所的责任,只是他们的重任。一旦有以色列人越过的条例,干犯了神的圣所,那么所有祭司和利未人都要一同来承担这个罪。神再次强调地吩咐亚伦和他儿子所要做的,而其他人是联合来帮助亚伦的,并且其他人是神赏赐给亚伦的。不是所有服事利未人都可作,也不是所有族长能作的。祭司的职任和服事都是神的赏赐。
今天不论神拣选我们在教会成为牧者同工、还是在职场工作、或是在学校求学、也许你是在家里的全职妈妈,无论在哪里,神都有祂的吩咐,并有其职任在那里。我们都可以一起服事神。
2.祭司的供应(V8-20)
神把属祂的举祭赐给利未人做赏赐,所以利未人所得的是最好至圣的,而祭司所得的是最至好最至圣的,这是神给祭司和利未人的赏赐和酬劳。凡圣物中的举祭,神都赐给祭司和他的儿女当作永得的分。这是给祭司和他的后裔、在耶和华面前作为永远不变的盐约。并且神把自己也给祭司作为他的分,是他的产业。
若我们服事神的殿,神必照顾我们的家。这是神赐给服事祂的人美好的应许。
二、利未人的产业与赏赐(V21-32)
神的举祭既是给了祭司也特别给了利未人。利未人也不被允许拥有产业,这其实是蒙福的原则。因为神把利未人分别为圣,是特别拣选出来的。他们虽然没有地上的产业,但是神就是 他们的产业。神将一切都赐予他们。换句话说,只要他们还在,一切都是属于他们的。
信心服事,就是相信神会供应我们,照顾我们的一生。神让我们可以专心跟随他,全心全意 事奉祂,不需要担心一切的供应,因为神会供应给我们。
总结:回应神国度的服事,全心全意来服事神。
Numbers Chapter 18: God is our inheritance
GK611 Morning Devotion
12/4/2024
The Morning Devotion Speaker: IP Asher Chang
Introduction: The serving of the Priests and Levites was a serving of life and death.
1. The priest’s reward comes from God
Rewarded service, the service itself is the reward
(1) Position of Priest (V1-7)
The priests (Aaron’s sons) and the Levites shared the responsibility for the management of the sanctuary, but they had a heavy responsibility. Once the Israelites transgressed the regulations and violated God’s holy place, all the priests and Levites must bear the sin together. God again emphatically told Aaron and his sons what to do, and the others were united to help Aaron, and they were given to Aaron by God. Not all the Levites who served could do it, and not all the patriarchs could do it. The priesthood and serving are gifts from God.
Today, whether God chooses us to be coworkers and pastors in the church, work in the workplace, study in school, or maybe a stay-at-home mother, no matter where we are, God has His command, and we have responsibilities there. We can all serve God together.
(2) Providence for Priest (V8-20)
God gave His heave offering to the Levites as a reward, so what the Levites received was the best and holy, and what the priests received was the best and most holy. This is what God gave to the priests and Levites, their wages, and rewards. All holy offerings are given by God as an everlasting portion to the priest and his children. This is an everlasting covenant of salt before the Lord for the priest and his descendants. And God gave himself to the priests as his portion, his inheritance.
If we serve the house of God, God will take care of our home. This is a wonderful promise that God gives to those who serve Him.
2. Levites’ inheritance and rewards (V21-32)
God’s heave offering was given both to the priests and especially to the Levites. The Levites were not allowed to own property, which was a blessed principle. Because God sanctified the Levites and specially selected them. Although they have no earthly inheritance, God is their inheritance. God gave them everything. In other words, as long as they are around, everything belongs to them.
Serving with faith means believing that God will provide for us and take care of us throughout our lives. God allows us to follow Him wholeheartedly and serve Him wholeheartedly without worrying about all supplies because God will provide for us.
Conclusion: Respond to the serving of God’s kingdom and serve God wholeheartedly.
