Daily Devotional

I've been reading a book by Daniel Henderson entitled Old Paths, New Power. While highlighting how the apostles put men "in charge" in Acts 6:3, Henderson states,"Believers are all set apart to God, for official kingdom-oriented service. It made me think of 1 Chronicles 15 where the musicians were appointed to their positions. They were put in charge because they were skillful (Chron. 15:22).

God has uniquely appointed or put each of us "in charge" of an area of ministry. Ephesians 2:10 says, "For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them." Do you realize that no one has your DNA. God prepared beforehand just how unique you would be and has an appointment that He has selected you to do. It's pretty incredible!

Do you know what your appointment is, what you are to be "in charge" of? The first step in finding out is believing in Jesus Christ as you Savior and Lord, The next is spending time with Him, learning what He says about you and what He plans for you (Romans 12:1-2 "I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect." And then you have the joy of discovering what He has appointed for your to do!!

He has designed you to do something that you are the best one to do! I love that! It's also an amazing thing to remember as we fellowship with each other. We are all important in the eyes of the Lord. Unique and best suited for His appointment:)

Who Else

Verse 1
I am an instrument of exaltation
And I was born to lift Your name above all names
You hear the melody of all creation
But there's a song of praise that only I can bring

Chorus 1
Who else is worthy who else is worthy
There is no one only You Jesus
Who else is worthy who else is worthy
There is no one only You Jesus

Verse 2
You are the infinite God of the ages
Yet You chose to make my heart Your dwelling place
You healed my brokenness showed me Your glory
So I have songs of thanks not even angels sing

Bridge 1
Lamb of God anointed one
Who was and is and is to come
Seated on the throne above
Holy holy
Righteous One who shed His blood
You proved to us the Father's love
Jesus Christ be lifted up
(Holy holy)
