—1 Chronicles 28:6-8
by: Linda Harris.
In ordination services, a charge exhorts the candidates to carry out the functions of their offices. David gave a charge to his son Solomon to follow all God’s commands.
We have the same mandate. The Life Application Bible says, “The teachings of Scripture are the keys to security, happiness, and justice, but you’ll never discover them unless you search God’s Word. If we ignore God’s will and neglect his teaching, anything we attempt to build, even if it has God’s name on it, will be headed for collapse. Get to know God’s commands through regular Bible study, and find ways to apply them consistently.”
