TOPIC: GOD'S WISDOM, KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING IS NECESSARY FOR HOLY MINISTRY
TEXT: EXODUS 31:1-6
KEY VERSE: PROVERBS 2:6 “For the Lord giveth wisdom: out of His mouth cometh knowledge and understanding”.
If I say ministry, some people think it's only Pastors who stand in the pulpit and preach. They exempt themselves because they are ignorant that everyone performing one function or the other for the Lord or in the house of God needs the wisdom of God in order to render satisfactory service unto God.
Whatever your service, be it ushering, chorister or security, you are performing service unto the Lord and needs God’s wisdom. The media workers and children teachers also required God’s wisdom, knowledge and understanding in order to excel.
In our text, The Lord told Moses He called by name, Bazaleel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah: It will shock you that the Lord knows you and calls you by name. You may think you are not relevant. I'm sure it shocked this man, Bazaleel. He was not a Levite, he was not a priest. But the Lord said, I called him by name.
What did the Lord say He did? “And I have filled him with the Spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship”. Service in all manner of field. I have given him wisdom, knowledge and understanding for all kinds of service that pertains to this temple work. All kinds of service, God gives wisdom.
In our key verse, you will understand that “the Lord gives wisdom”. I'm saying this to prepare you that whatever you do, don’t think it is secular work, the name of the Lord is attached to it. Bazaleel's own was in construction of the temple.
Is that not secular work? Did it involve preaching? But he needed wisdom for it because the name of the Lord is in it. I'm saying this so you can ask God for wisdom. How much more you who are dedicated worker in the house of God, pray, go and collect; For God gives wisdom to all men liberally. You will be wise and useful.
Thought for the day: Whatever your service, ask God to fill you with wisdom
Song for the day: In have a Father, Almighty Father, He is King of kings, Lord..
Bible reading for the day: Daniel 6-8
