HE HAS FILLED YOU WITH SKILL

A couple months ago I started a bible reading challenge to read the Bible chronologically for a set amount of days- which that set amount of days has been extended due to some inconsistency! BUT when I was reading in Exodus, Holy Spirit highlighted something so incredibly profound for His Kingdom Creatives! I am just now getting to post this and share, yet feel it is for such as time as this, especially as we just stepped into a New Year! 2️⃣4οΈβƒ£πŸŽ‰

We read in the later chapters of Exodus about the building of the Tabernacle and all the significant details that were instructed by God, which also just shows how intentional God is with His Creation- He is in EVERY detail-nothing is missed or left out!

It was this verse that stood out to me and felt like a fresh word for the Creative Daughters of God! πŸ‘‘

Exodus 35:35 (side note: 35 biblically means “Hope”)

He has filled them with skill to do the work of an engraver, of a designer, and of an embroiderer, in blue, purple, and scarlet fabric, and in fine linen, and of a weaver; makers of every work and embroiderers of [excellent] designs.”

You may not feel like you are a designer or embroiderer, or even a builder. But the whole heart of this is simply that God created us with a creative purpose, and that may look different for each of us. Which is great-it should- because if we were all called to the same exact thing there would be multiple parts of the Body and areas of the world not being reached. This is a time of not looking to the left or the right but fixing our gaze on Him, allowing Him to do the work within us so that we can be filled with skill to advance the Kingdom of God. It’s about Kingdom! πŸ‘‘βœ¨

When we think of “skill” we think of the ability to do something, possibly the talent to create or carry out a plan or dream, spiritual gifts, even what we are just good at. But it is SO much deeper. Searching the word “skill” in the Bible also shows that God intends to fill us with skill in filling us with knowledge, insight, and wisdom.

Another interesting aspect to this scripture that was highlighted by Holy Spirit is this: Bezalel (from the Tribe of Judah)- he was the one called by God for such a task- Vs 31 “and He has filled him with the Spirit of God, with wisdom and skill, with intelligence and understanding, and with knowledge in all [areas of] craftsmanship,”

The Name Bezalel means “in the shadow (protection) of God” essentially meaning “in the presence of God”

I love in Vs 34 how it says “He has also put in Bezalel’s heart [the willingness] to teach [others the same skills],”

How he LOVES a willing heart! And not only that but to teach, lead, encourage and empower others! ❀️

Exodus 35:20 “Everyone whose heart stirred him and everyone whose spirit moved him came and brought the Lord’s offering to be used for the Tent of Meeting, for all its service, and for the holy garments.” The following scripture share about the gifts received as they all offered what they had for the building of the Tabernacle. 🎁🌈

This is US bringing what WE HAVE to the places God has anointed us for- in your family, your home, your workplace, your school, the ministry you are a part of, in Wal-Mart, on an airplane, in collaboration with others, and on social media-We bring what we have to make up the WHOLE body of Christ- His mature and spotless Bride! πŸ‘°β€β™€οΈ

I really hope you read this far! I just declare over you today that you are FILLED WITH SKILL, the “ability and understanding,” (Ex. 36:1) knowledge, insight, and wisdom, and that your heart is stirred and your spirit is moved to walk in your identity, vision, and purpose as His Daughter called for creative things, creative miracles, creative destinies! LET HOPE ARISE and flood the spirit of His Daughters in all creative forms to carry out His perfect will and bring Heaven to earth! Worshipers, Designers, Builders, Entreprenuers, Teachers, Mothers, Embroiderers, Authors, Psalmists, Scribes, Speakers, Dancers, Intercessors- SO much MORE! πŸ™ŒπŸ˜­

YOU ARE FILLED WITH SKILL IN JESUS’ NAME! ✨

Exodus 35:10 “Let every skillful man among you come, and make all that the Lord has commanded.” πŸ‘‘
