Serve God Where He Calls You

Then the Lord said to Moses, "See, I have chosen Bezalel son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, and I have filled him with the Spirit of God, with skill, ability and knowledge in all kinds of crafts-to make artistic designs for work in gold, silver and bronze, to cut and set stones, to work in wood, and to engage in all kinds of craftsmanship.

 

Exodus 31:1-5



Bezalel was called by God to perform a most important work for Him. I am sure that Bezalel believed that he was naturally gifted with his hands to make fine crafts with gold, silver, and bronze. He probably did not associate it with God's work. But the Scripture tells us that God chose him and filled him with God's Spirit to enable him.

Does God call men and women into certain places to fulfill His purposes—to fulfill that which needs to be accomplished throughout the world?

 

Have you ever thought about how God has a balance of interest in each human throughout the world?

 

Did it just happen?

 

Was it by chance?

The desires, talents, and skills you have are not born of your own making. So many believers fail to seek God's direction for where He would have us in order for His work to be accomplished. Sometimes God will remove us from our present location or doings in order to bring us to the place where He has called us. Seek and serve God where He has gifted you and the Spirit is calling you to.
