Daily D – Exodus 31:1-6

by David Bowman | Jan 27, 2024 | Daily D | 0 comments

Exodus 31:1-6 The Lord also spoke to Moses: “Look, I have appointed by name Bezalel son of Uri, son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah. I have filled him with God’s Spirit, with wisdom, understanding, and ability in every craft to design artistic works in gold, silver, and bronze, to cut gemstones for mounting, and to carve wood for work in every craft. I have also selected Oholiab son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, to be with him. I have put wisdom in the heart of every skilled artisan in order to make all that I have commanded you:“ (CSB)

An old song says, “Everybody’s got a gift to give.” This is true for even you.

God gives wisdom for work that honors him and blesses others.

The wisdom for special kinds of work beautifies. It draws our attention away from the bits and pieces toward the deeper reality and higher truths of God’s goodness and grace.

God’s gifts build a better world. Form and function, design and decoration yield deep satisfaction and settled enjoyment.

It’s Saturday. This is a good day to ponder how we can use our God-given gifts to display God’s goodness through the work of our hands, the thoughts of our minds, and the way we treat everyone we meet.

I will use the gifts God has given me to beautify the world.

Our Father, use what you have placed in me to express beauty, wonder, and awe that draws hearts and minds to your gracious goodness. Amen.

Daily D – Ezra 3:11-13

Ezra 3:11-13 They sang with praise and thanksgiving to the Lord: “For he is good; his faithful love to Israel endures forever.” Then all the people gave a great shout of praise to the Lord because the foundation of the Lord’s house had been laid. But many of the older priests, Levites, and family heads, who had seen the first temple, wept loudly when they saw the foundation of this temple, but many others shouted joyfully. The people could not distinguish the sound of the joyful shouting from that of the weeping, because the people were shouting so loudly. And the sound was heard far away.

Daily D – Ezekiel 43:1-5

Ezekiel 43:1-5 He led me to the gate, the one that faces east, and I saw the glory of the God of Israel coming from the east. His voice sounded like the roar of a huge torrent, and the earth shone with his glory. The vision I saw was like the one I had seen when he came to destroy the city, and like the ones I had seen by the Chebar Canal. I fell facedown. The glory of the Lord entered the temple by way of the gate that faced east. Then the Spirit lifted me up and brought me to the inner court, and the glory of the Lord filled the temple.
