Category Archives: Aaron and his sons

Pray this Lazaroo with bottomless trust:

“Aaron and his sons are to go into the sanctuary and assign to each man his work and what he is to carry. But the Kohathites must not go in to look at the holy things, even for a moment, or they will die.”
(Numbers 4:19-20)

There are some things that are off-limits for me, too, Jesus.

Please.
Show me what they are.

May I never desire

what You haven’t given me.

You’ve already given me

far more than I deserve!

Pray this Lazaroo in sobered awareness:

“After Aaron and his sons have finished covering the holy furnishings and all the holy articles, and when the camp is ready to move, only then are the Kohathites to come and do the carrying. But they must not touch the holy things or they will die.”
(Numbers 4:15)

When the oxen stumbled and Uzzah took hold of the Ark of The Covenant

You struck him down, Jesus
and he died.

When it comes to Your holy things, You don’t mess around!

Neither should I.

Pray this Lazaroo with new awareness:

“This is the work of the Kohathites at the tent of meeting: the care of the most holy things. When the camp is to move, Aaron and his sons are to go in and take down the shielding curtain and put it over the ark of the covenant law.”
(Numbers 4:4-5)

What are the holy things I am to care for, Jesus?

Is it possible that I don’t recognize what is truly holy?

Teach me, LORD!

May I view what is around me

through Your eyes.

Pray this Lazaroo with steely determination:

“So Moses collected the redemption money from those who exceeded the number redeemed by the Levites. Moses gave the redemption money to Aaron and his sons, as he was commanded by the word of the Lord.”
(Numbers 3:49, 51)

Two steps, Jesus. Not just one.

1. Collect the money as You command.
2. Give it to the people You specify.

May I never stop with the first step in obeying You.

Help me take every step of obedience!

…all the way home.

Pray this Lazaroo with bottomless trust:

“To redeem the 273 firstborn Israelites who exceed the number of the Levites, collect five shekels for each one…Give the money…to Aaron and his sons.”
(Numbers 3:46-48)

So, Jesus –

each family had to buy back from You every firstborn
or that child would enter Your full-time service –

a practice that helped fund the priesthood.

Regardless of what I do for a living today or in the future

I don’t want to be bought back.
I want to belong full-time to You!
