Exodus
36:1
So Bezalel, Oholiab and every skilled
person to whom the Lord has given skill
and ability to know how to carry out all the work of constructing the
sanctuary are to do the work just as the Lord has commanded.’
Do you know how to make a little kid smile?
If so, God has given you an ability to know how to build his church.
Are you able to lift 50kg without any
effort? If so, God has given you an
ability that can add to the building of his church.
Do you know how to make some tasty food? If
so, God has given you a skill to build and feed his church.
Can you talk, paint, sing, dance, fix,
build, clean, entertain, teach, or even just breathe? Well then, I believe that
God has given you skill and ability to know how to build his church. Bring and
come! Please!
But HOW?
Exodus
36:2
Then Moses summoned Bezalel and Oholiab and
every skilled person to whom the Lord had given ability and who was willing to
come and do the work.
1. Find out what your ability is, what you’re
good at, and what you enjoy doing.
2. Then be willing to use that to build up
the church and add to the Kingdom of God.
The seeming lack of size or significance of
your gift is really not what matters. Mustard seed faith makes Mount Everest
move like Jagger. Jesus fed 5,000 people with the equivalent of a KFC
Streetwise meal. What’s actually important here is whether you are willing to
come and do the work. Supposedly ‘unskilled’ people who are willing are a
million times more effective than skilled people who aren’t willing.
God is building his glorious church. Don’t
miss out. Get involved. Bring everything you have. Be willing. Come.
