Ushers

For better is one day in Your courts than a thousand elsewhere. I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than dwell in the tents of the wicked.

Share with the saints who are in need. Practice hospitality.

Make every effort to present yourself approved to God, an unashamed workman who accurately handles the word of truth.

Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast and immovable. Always excel in the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.

Instruct them to do good, to be rich in good works, and to be generous and ready to share,

…treasuring up for themselves a firm foundation for the future, so that they may take hold of that which is truly life.

“Go up to Hilkiah the high priest and have him count the money that has been brought into the house of the LORD, which the doorkeepers have collected from the people.

The captain of the guard also took away Seraiah the chief priest, Zephaniah the priest of second rank, and the three doorkeepers.

Serve with good will, as to the Lord and not to men,

…because you know that the Lord will reward each one for whatever good he does, whether he is slave or free.

The gatekeeper opens the gate for him, and the sheep listen for his voice. He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out.

There are different gifts, but the same Spirit.

There are different ministries, but the same Lord.
