In chapter 35 of Numbers God explains to Moses the process of assigning cities for the Levites. In verse 8 God makes it plain; every tribe will provide some cities. "Each must contribute some of its own towns to the Levites in proportion to the inheritance allocated to each." Everyone in the family of God is given an inheritance. No one in the body of Faith is exempt from providing for those who's vocation is the ministry of the covenant. This sounds strangely similar to Paul's words in 1 Corinthians 16:2. So I don't think it is a wrong application to apply this truth from Numbers to the practice of 21st century Christians.
