Numbers 18:1-2 Authority and Accountability

 1So the LORD said to Aaron, “You and your sons and your father’s house must bear the iniquity involving the sanctuary. And you and your sons alone must bear the iniquity involving your priesthood. 2But bring with you also your brothers from the tribe of Levi, the tribe of your father, that they may join you and assist you and your sons before the Tent of the Testimony.

Authority and Accountability 

“God never gives authority without accountability; the two always go together. If God gives someone headship and expects others to submit to them in His order, God also has a special accountability for that person.” (Guzik)


Aaron, his sons and his fathers house were called to be the priests while the tribe of Levi was to assist the priests before the Tent of the Testimony. Levites had a supporting role but it was an important role.


Has the Lord ever put you in a leadership role of a ministry? 

Remember, it’s His ministry because He gives authority and accountability.

The moment you believe it’s your ministry, pride has set in.

Remember, Proverbs 16:18 “Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall.”


Blessings
