Today's reading: Leviticus 10, 11, 12; Psalm 4, 34, 64, 94, 124; Proverbs 4

Leviticus 10:1-2, "And Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, took either of them his censer, and put fire therein, and put incense thereon, and offered strange fire before the LORD, which he commanded them not. And there went out fire from the LORD, and devoured them, and they died before the LORD."

How many of us have started a new job and shortly after think we have a better idea of how things should be done? I know that I am guilty. I don't remember one single time that my suggestions were taken into consideration at all. Why is this?

It might have something to do with a lack of experience. If someone has an established way of doing things and it is successful you might not want to change things. Sometimes change is necessary. I understand that.

In our passage today Aaron's two sons made changes in worship that were contrary to what God had prescribed. You see, God has a plan and you and I just need to fall in line with the plan and run with it.

You cannot change salvation and it still be salvation. You cannot add to it or take away from it because it will cease to be salvation. Then you have works or something else. God knows what He is doing and we need to fall into step with Him and get going.

Have you made any changes lately that maybe you should not have made? Sure about that?
