VerseD: 1 Thessalonians 5:12-13

We ask you, brothers, to respect those who labor among you and are over you in the Lord and admonish you, and to esteem them very highly in love because of their work. Be at peace among yourselves.

‭1 Thessalonians‬ ‭5:12‭-‬13‬ , ESV‬

We all have spiritual authority over us, most importantly Christ. Let us respect them as they serve Christ and out of our love for Christ.

VerseD: Numbers 18:24

“For the tithe of the people of Israel, which they present as a contribution to the Lord, I have given to the Levites for an inheritance. Therefore I have said of them that they shall have no inheritance among the people of Israel.”
Numbers 18:24, ESV

Pastors, preachers, and teachers may not have much, but it is provided by God through His people.
It is a reminder that for all of us our true inheritance is in Christ.
