Being Skilful
Exodus 31:2-3 New International Version – 2 “See, I have chosen Bezalel son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, 3 and I have filled him with the Spirit of God, with wisdom, with understanding, with knowledge and with all kinds of skills …
God’s first assignment He gave to man was to work, worshipping Him is just supplementary, we are to keep His earth/universe He’s created to express His wisdom and beauty. And this can never be done without skills.
Thus, because God does not love some people and hate the others, He gives liberally to the people who ask Him, He has given each and every one of us the skill to do something in this life. Never believe you cannot to do anything in life for God does not create useless things talking about useless human beings.
Everyone is a mission or purpose in life, but that purpose that comes with skill needs to be discovered, that is where the problem lies, this is why we need to go to Him to ask Him of the skill He’s given us.
Confession
In Name of Sweet Precious Lord Jesus, I am skillful and a solve problem solver on earth, amen!
