God Quote-Levi

JOHN SHIRK – In the Year of God’s Word, this is what the LORD says in Malachi 2, verses 5 and 6.

Regarding Levi, “My covenant was with him, a covenant of life and peace, and I gave them to him; this called for reverence and he revered me and stood in awe of my name.  True instruction was in his mouth and nothing false was found on his lips. He walked with me in peace and uprightness, and turned many from sin.”

Levi was the third son of Jacob and became the head of the tribe of the Levites. His descendants would serve as priests, singers and caretakers in the worship of God.

God’s view of Levi’s life gives us some questions to ponder? What will God say about us in regard to reverence and integrity? Do we stand in awe of God and worship Him? Does our example motivate others to live a godly life? Do we walk with God in peace?

Malachi 2:5 and 6-That’s today’s God Quote for us to embrace for life.
