God Gifts, God Stirs, We Work

 

I’m Duane Matz and welcome to Today’s Living Word.

 

Ex 36:2 Then Moses called Bezalel and Aholiab, and every gifted artisan in whose heart the LORD had put wisdom, everyone whose heart was stirred, to come and do the work.

 

God, gifts, stirs, and we work, it’s really all that simple. You and I have kingdom work to do and to deny that God has important work for little old you is to shrink the very big God we serve.  

 

You have been saved for a purpose! You ought to know by now that you are saved by grace, through faith and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God, not of works, lest any of us may be tempted to boast. (Eph 2:8.9)

 

But don’t forget the very next verse in Ephesians! Eph 2:10 For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.

 

If you are willing to receive it and in so doing, magnify the Lord. God had you in mind from the very first DNA of Adam and Eve, and you have been born and put in the mix for such a time as this!

Mind boggling, I know!

 

God has gifted you physically and spiritually for your tasks at hand. He stirs you as you are moved by His Word and the circumstances that you find yourself in. Then you respond by doing the work!

 

Begin each day with this simple prayer/ “Lord, here I am, what is it that You would have me do today….then simply keep your eyes and ears open ready to respond. There is no shortage of tasks that need to be done, no shortage of men lying in the ditch.

 

I’m Duane Matz and that’s Today’s Living Word
