Standout Verse(s):
2 Chronicles 8:14 NLT
In assigning the priests to their duties, Solomon followed the regulations of his father, David. He also assigned the Levites to lead the people in praise and to assist the priests in their daily duties. And he assigned the gatekeepers to their gates by their divisions, following the commands of David, the man of God.
Observation (s):
- God stipulations dictated that Levites be assigned to leading people in praise.
He also assigned the Levites to lead the people in praise and to assist the priests in their daily duties.
Application:
Do not undermine the importance of praise and worship. Do not remove it from your daily routine or neglect it within your organizations. Praise was so important that God stipulated that Levites be assigned to a role that was specifically responsible for leading the people into a state of praise.
Praise and worship is very beneficial weapon. It presents an opportunity for you to meditate. It lightens the heart and increase the fervour of your trust in God. It draws you closer to God and God closer to you.
