FILLED HIM WITH THE SPIRIT OF GOD WITH SKILL / EXODUS 31:1-5

(KJV) Exodus 31:1-5

And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying, ² See, I have called by name Bezaleel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah: ³ And I have filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship, ⁴ To devise cunning works, to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass, ⁵ And in cutting of stones, to set them, and in carving of timber, to work in all manner of workmanship. And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,

The idea of “being filled with the Spirit of God,” as it is used here, means to be spiritually equipped or empowered for special service of God. God fills and empowers people with His Spirit not only for “spiritual” responsibilities, but also for practical service. (Moses actually carries out these instructions. He gave specific assignments to Bezalet, Oholiab and others to do the work in Exodus 35:10 -36:31.) The work of ministry is not just reserved for church leaders. Every person is a minister in some way (2 Corinthians 3:6). While God does give special skills to individuals for specific tasks, He has also equipped every person with unique talents and abilities. Those talents allow each person to make a difference for His kingdom. God’s Spirit empowers and enlightens people’s minds with the skills and knowledge to creatively serve His purposes. Even the ability to show or teach others how to do something is a special gift from God (Exodus 35:34). God wants us to use what we have been given to build up and encourage others (1 Corinthians 12:4-20; Ephesians 4:12). Peter writes that “each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God’s grace in its various forms” (1 Peter 4:10). All Christ’s followers today should pray that the Spirit will give them both physical skills and spiritual gifts. God’s plans for their lives will be fulfilled as they use their gifts for His glory.
