24‘May the Lord bless you and protect you.

25May the Lord smile on you and be gracious to you.

26May the Lord show you his favor and give you his peace.’

Offerings of Dedication

So Moses, Aaron, and the whole community of Israel dedicated the Levites, carefully following all the Lord’s instructions to Moses. 21The Levites purified themselves from sin and washed their clothes, and Aaron lifted them up and presented them to the Lord as a special offering.

“Wait here until I have received instructions for you from the Lord.”

Whether the cloud stayed above the Tabernacle for two days, a month, or a year, the people of Israel stayed in camp and did not move on. But as soon as it lifted, they broke camp and moved on.

Lord God my Father,

Bless me and keep watch over me and help me to obey you in all areas of my life. Develop in me the quietness to hear your instructions and the obedience to follow them. Allow me to see your desire above my own.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
