How are you at using your gifts and talents?
Perceive: In this section of Scripture we see a concluding view and summarization regarding the magnanimous worship service telling who and how they worshiped in the Tent and the tabernacle. Asaph and his relatives were left before the ark to minister there regularly as each day’s work required. Obed-Edom and his sixty-eight relatives ministered with them as gatekeepers. Zadok and his relatives were at the tabernacle at Gibeon to attend to the morning and evening burnt offerings. Heman and Jeduthun and their relatives to give thanksgiving in song and instruments. It ends with everyone dispersing each to his home. Having finished blessing the house of God, David returns home to bless his family household.
Practice: In addition to the religious services, each of these people worked as required. Their roles included support and logistical tasks. The composition of Christ's body includes all sorts of people with a varied set of talents and spiritual gifts. For the body to function, all the body parts need to work together (1 Corinthians 12:12). Each of us needs one another. God can use you in ministry regardless of whether you are a preacher, teacher, evangelist. His kingdom needs people who like cleaning, serving, cooking, planning, singing, playing instruments, and praying. Everyone in Christ’s kingdom has a role in the worship and care of the local church.
Pray: Thank you Almighty God for creating a team of people in Your kingdom who are required to work together to advance Your will. Help me serve in all the ways You have designed me to live.
