I think the very words "Called to be Set Apart" speaks volumes because this call comes from our God, Our King. Our call is not empty but filled with promises of fulfillment beyond our imagination made to fit our personal situations. "Set Apart" in the past two months alone I have been hit with these words through Bible Studies, Church Sermons and personal revelations. I believe to hear this so many times understanding that this is what a Christian individual is called to do I can only come to one conclusion; we as Christians are not doing this.
I believe the leaders and teachers in Christ are led by the prompting of the Holy Spirit. The message to be set apart is not only "now" but there is an urgency in it (at least that is what I have perceived). If we take into count what Christ in His love has done for us we will see that He himself has pulled us apart from the world. When you were steep in your sins Christ came and pulled you from the grips of death into life. He removed your old rags and placed new garments on you, standing you up tall in His presence removing the burdens of sin and the stench of the world. We go back and mingle in not on purpose of course.
I do not need to spend a paragraph listing how we do this what I do want to spend time in saying is 'be careful to mind your steps and your thoughts, purpose to live set apart.' The only way this can happen is through keeping your face in the word and staying on bended knee. In everything PUT GOD FIRST. THE TIME IS NOW NOT TOMORROW OR LATER BUT NOW. GOD HAS A MESSAGE HE WANTS TO DELIVER TO HIS PEOPLE SET APART DON'T MISS OUT BECAUSE YOUR HEAD WAS SOMEWHERE IN THE WORLD. GOD LOVES EACH AND EVERY ONE OF US SO ALLOW HIM TO SHOW HIS LOVE, HEAR WHAT HE HAS TO SAY AND ACT UPON IT.
Praying that each and every one of us purposes in our hearts and minds to live set apart. Ask God to reveal to us what that truly means.
