... line upon line ... Isaiah 28:10
Numbers 4:15 "And when Aaron and his sons have made an end of covering the sanctuary, and all the vessels of the sanctuary, as the camp is to set forward; after that, the sons of Kohath shall come to bear it : but they shall not touch any holy thing, lest they die."
A harsh judgment for touching something! But, it was not their responsibility to touch it. The sons of Kohath had a role, and it was to move the Ark of Covenant and the Vail of the Tabernacle, but only after the priests had covered it over. The priests had a role, and it was to pack up the Ark and the Vail. You see, each man had his specific duty, to be done in order, although they served the same purpose and at times with the same objects.
Be content in the role of life you have been graciously given by God. You may be a Dad leading a family, or a Mum following the husbands lead. But you both work together for the betterment of the same thing - the family. Do not transgress on the role of the other, but find joy and peace in doing what you are designed and designated by God to do. Discontentment comes when a Dad is wimpy and follows his wife, or a wife is bossy and leads her husband, and neither will then enjoy their true responsibilities, because they are injecting themselves into over the role of the other.
And they we not equipped to do this! Korah, of the Kohathites tried this role reversal, and it did not end well for him. You may be a pastor leading a church or a church member following the pastor, but you both serve the Lord God for the betterment of the church of Jesus Christ that you are members at! If the pastor were to follow the people, he would be out of the will of God, as would be the people if they attempted to lead the pastor.
And both would be utterly discontent trying to do something that the other is meant to do. Ask any pastor with a mouthy church member. Parents are not to follow their children, just as children are not to lead their parents. This is a gross perversion of the order of the family. Ask any parent who has a child at home that was not pulled in line with nurture AND discipline in their formative years.
If you are employed, you are to obey your employer, and never presume to tell them how to run the business. And my point? Find pleasure in serving God in the role you have been given. You will be a lot happier, a lot less stressed and a lot more pleasant to work with and be around. And to top it off, you will be pleasing God. Is there any greater reason than this last? Philippians 4:11 … I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content. QED.
