2. EQUIPPED WITH GOD'S GIFTS
📖 Exodus 31:3 — “with ability and intelligence, with knowledge and all craftsmanship…”
God provides believers with the gifts, wisdom, abilities, and skills necessary for the ministry He has called them to do.
Key Truth: God does not merely call us to a task; He provides what is necessary to fulfill that task.
📖 Romans 12:6 — “Having gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, let us use them…”
3. ENABLED BY GOD'S GRACE
📖 Exodus 31:6 — “And I have given to him…”
God takes the initiative, provides the resources, and enables us to accomplish His work.
