GIFTED FOR SERVICE

Number 18:7
‘I give your priesthood to you as a gift for service,
but the outsider who comes near shall be put to death.’

1. Serving YHWH is not just a call, it is a GIFT!

2. The call is ‘person-specific’ not random!

Ephesians 2:10
For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.



I am specifically chosen


to be blessed (gifted)


with a specific call to serve


the LIVING YHWH ELOHIM !



Just as I would joyfully receive a gift
– especially if I know that the giver is
a most honourable and trustworthy person
so I should joyfully embrace
my call in God.
There is nothing to fear,
only an expectation of something good!




Thank You Father, for calling me.
Thank You for the gift of serving you
especially through my worship.
I am so blessed to know that You consider me
worthy of such a gift as serving You, the only true and living God.
Help me to rejoice always in this gift
– even through difficult times.
In Jesus’ name, amen.
