The pattern revealed to Moses contained both divine instructions and divine specifications. Moses was not given the creative license to freestyle. He must build according to the pattern revealed and shown unto him.
The details of the divine specification contained two men who God had filled with His Spirit in all manner of wisdom and excellence to do the work. These men were already filled with the spirit to build the pattern that Moses received.
Exodus 31:1-6: 1Then the LORD said to Moses, 2“Look, I have specifically chosen Bezalel son of Uri, grandson of Hur, of the tribe of Judah. 3I have filled him with the Spirit of God, giving him great wisdom, ability, and expertise in all kinds of crafts. 4He is a master craftsman, expert in working with gold, silver, and bronze. 5He is skilled in engraving and mounting gemstones and in carving wood. He is a master at every craft!6“And I have personally appointed Oholiab son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, to be his assistant. Moreover, I have given special skill to all the gifted craftsmen so they can make all the things I have commanded you to make:
Four very powerful lesson to forever keep in mind:
1. It was incumbent on Moses to ascend to the mountain and receive the pattern.
2. It was the responsibility of the two men to lead the construction and implementation of the pattern received by Moses, so God called them and filled with the Spirit.
3. It was Moses, responsibility to receive the specifics concerning their details and locate them. God gave the specific family details to avoid confusion and contention.
4. It was Moses full time responsibility to supervise and ensure that they build according to the pattern that was shown unto Him. Do not forget that the pattern was shown unto Moses and not unto the builders.
Please note that, that a man is filled with the Spirit to do great and wonderful work is not a license to start building. God may have filled such a man or woman with such great measure of the Spirit simply to realize the pattern He has shown unto another man - Moses.
A common error is the craving to start something because you have the capacity, the ability, the training and the spirit is at work - Hallelujah!! Yes, you can start but if the pattern is not revealed to you , you will build in vain.
I have seen men who hurriedly breakaway, do their own thing, start a ministry, a prayer group, a business, a family, a project, a career, a singing ministry that God had not given them a pattern for. Most if not all of them lived in regret until they retraced their steps.
I want to challenge you to query that which you are doing, or which you are about to start doing. Is there a divine pattern to guide the implementation? what are the specific details? I pray that the Lord will strengthen and guide us as we wait upon him in the name of the Lord.
Have a blessed day and enjoy a great weekend in Gods presence.
