The worship family

Originally written March 15

Today: 1 Chronicles 6

This chapter describes the people dedicated to worship—including the Levite priests and worship leaders. It also describes how God and His people provided land for them. This chapter really doesn’t have much to say about the priests and worship leaders, but I think it’s interesting that before the Israelites had a royal family, they had families dedicated to serving God’s Tent/Temple and leading them in worship—they had a worship family.

The fact that God established a nation that way says something about who He is and what He likes. He likes to be first. He likes to have people dedicated to worshipping Him. Today’s churches don’t have worship families because ultimately, I think God wants all of us to be worshippers who love serving Him and His house.
