Bible Reading: Exodus 31:1-5
Memory Verse: Many are the plans in the mind of a man, but it is the purpose of the LORD that will stand. Proverbs 19:21(ESV)
Bezaleel in our text was very skillful in various art works. He could be likened to a fine artist, a carpenter and sculptural design artist. He might have gone to a technical school to sharpen his skill. When he located his destiny in God, he came to the understanding that his talent was given to him not only to put food on his table but ULTIMATELY to cut the wood and design sculptural works in the temple God showed to Moses. The ultimate purpose of his talent was for kingdom purpose.
Saul of Tarsus who later became Apostle Paul was well read. He studied under Gamaliel, a top-notch teacher who could be likened to be a Professor. Saul persecuted the Church. An encounter with the Lord on his way to Damascus changed his direction in destiny. He later became one of the greatest defenders of the Gospel writing close to two-third of the New Testament. The ULTIMATE purpose of his law profession was to defend and proclaim the kingdom of God.
Moses discovered the reason why God made him a palace prince in a strange land. He needed to understand the wisdom of Egypt, their culture, and all their gods. The ULTIMATE purpose is to destroy the Egyptians and deliver the Israelites from long time bondage. May you understand the purpose of God’s dealings over your life in Jesus name.
