Unique Assignment!
"He picked up five smooth stones from a stream and put them into his shepherd's bag. Then, armed only with his shepherd's staff and sling, he started across the valley to fight the Philistine."
-1 Samuel 17:40 (NASB)
God has ordained a unique assignment for every individual, and expects us to go about fulfilling it His own way. Saul tried to dictate how David would fight Goliath. He wanted David to conform to standard dress, weapons, and strategy. But none of these things worked for David. He told the king, "I cannot go with these, for I have not tested them." David knew that to be successful, he had to fight with his own weapons. He could not use weapons prepared for someone else. He turned to a sling that was tested, a weapon in which he was confident. Then he chose five stones that fit his requirements, and he was ready to confront the enemy. As David fought with weapons that were right for him, the Lord enabled him to achieve a great victory. If we want to be successful in our battles, we need to follow David's model. We must remember that we're all unique, with special gifts and talents. God has prepared each of us in unique ways, and we serve unique positions in the Body of Christ. If you are yet to discover your place in the body, ask God to confirm your spiritual gifts and your special role to you, if you have discovered your place, are you faithful in it? Be confident in God's plan for your life, follow His call, and give from what you've been given. Seek excellence in everything you do. Don't give in to compromise, but make up your mind to fulfil your assignment God's own way, seek to please Him and obey His Word, with Him on your side, you can be victorious, no matter how big the giants may seem!
Have a great weekend!
Confession
I will take my place in God's divine order, His grace is sufficient for me, I will not give in or compromise, but seek to please God in everything I do. Halleluyah!
