Psalm 4:3 ~ “But know that the Lord hath set apart him that is godly for himself: the Lord will hear when I call unto him.”
To be set apart requires a change to take place, it’s just that simple! And when the change takes place, it changes you and your atmosphere immediately, you have moved from darkness to light!
In spite of life happening, you are still meant to be set apart for God’s use. You were created to be set apart to show the love of God and live in a way that brings Glory to His Holy Name. God wants you to be set apart and that is why He gave you detailed instructions on how to live and how to present your body (Romans 12:1); He gave you details on how to Worship (Psalm 100); How to Pray (Matthew 6:6); and how to live (Leviticus 19:1), He wants you to understand that in order to come into His Presence daily you need to reverence Him and be set apart!
As a Christian, you will have trials, test, and tribulations in this life, even while you are being set apart for God to use, this is an unavoidable reality that all Believers will experience opposition in your lifetimes. David lived and experienced the Lord on many occasions and how He saved Him from trouble. His past experiences had given him confidence in the Lord and how He treated those that are faithful to Him, regardless of the circumstance! Do you trust Him, do you know that you are set apart for His use even while you are going through it? You must live faithfully trusting the Lord in all things that you will face in this life and know that God will never fail Himself nor will He fail you. He will always be faithful to those who faithfully serve Him.
God not only hears you, but He is also responding to your cry for help in your most challenging times. In other words, however overwhelming the situation is, God remembers your faithfulness to Him, and He is moving toward you with faithful favor to aid you in your trying times. You must have confidence in the Word of God and know that God will take care of you. He is faithful! He will not fail! He will do what He said He would do! God knows exactly where He wants you and when you seek Him and draw near to Him, His calling will find you. When you start seeking what you were created for and your calling, just spend some time apart from everyone else and get in God’s Word and in worship. God has chosen you to do a work for Him and you need to be “set apart”, you were chosen to do a work for the King. He has anointed you and equipped you to be used for the advancement of His kingdom.
God called you and He set you apart for godly service unto Him! Only God can do this, you cannot make your godly no matter how good you are, only God can do this, and He does it by setting you apart from the rest! God set you apart in His Grace and Mercy, He made a promise to you based on His decision at Calvary, God made you godly that you might live your life in a godly manner for all to see and be drawn to Him and His Glory! He set you apart from Himself, you belong to Him, not because of the calling on your life but because He loves you and He wants to be in fellowship with you, plain and simple. So now you can serve Him because of His invitation to have an intimate relationship with you and this is good news. God has set you apart for Himself, and He’s making you godly in the process! Now this is love! Seek to be in His Presence today, ask Him for guidance and He sets you apart for His service today!
Have you heard the Lord’s voice calling you today? Did you answer Him, are you walking and fulfilling your call to be set apart for His service, to be His leader, and His servant that is going into the uttermost parts of the world and sharing the Word of Jesus Christ with others who have never heard of Him that they might have an encounter with Him also and know what it’s like to live set apart for His Glory!
Let’s Pray:
Thank You Father! Thank You for setting me apart for Your use. Father, I want to live daily for You, and I want to live under the guidance of Your Holy Spirit, lead me whenever you want, and I will follow. Father, thank You for calling me for the purpose You designed me for, Father, fill me with obedience for You and Your Word like never before. May I fulfill my calling for Your Glory! Father help me to stay on the path that set me on, and that I may follow You with my whole heart, mind, and body and that I will trust You in everything, know that you will make me godly when I choose to turn to You for everything that I need and to be set apart. In the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ. Amen!
Blessing…
