Set Apart Unto Him

God has sanctified us, set us apart from the world for Himself, to be holy (pure vessels of Himself, Love Himself). Why? Why has He set us apart unto Himself—SO THAT HE CAN BLESS US.

We are influenced by, become like, who or what we are connected to. When are connected to the Lord Himself and allow Him to set us apart unto Himself, it is for one purpose and one purpose only: that all that He has may be opened and available to us for our life here on this earth. He wants to bless us, to empower us with His power. And His power is His love.

When we are desperate for His presence, when we live for just a moment with Him, for time with Him, then His love, His power, is active for us and for those around us every day. His love, His power activated in us, sets us apart from the world, creates a different environment around us. Being born again does not automatically set us apart unto Him totally; that is a decision we make after we are born again. It is a quality decision we make that we will make Him our Lord, the One in charge of everything in our lives. We make a decision to allow Him to determine our direction in life, to determine the decisions we make. We do it His way instead of our way.

How about you? Where do you stand today on allowing the Jesus to be truly the LORD of your life? Have you allowed Him to set you apart unto himself? He offers. Have you taken Him up on His offer? And what is waiting for you in His Presence, in being set apart unto Him—all that He is and all that He has: abundance, health, prosperity, success, victory in life.

Yes, we are set apart unto the Lord, and every day we choose to accept that position of blessing, daily making that the life we live, a life focused on Him, on His presence. He is to be our everything.
