Special Instrument
If you keep yourself pure, you will be a special utensil for honorable use. Your life will be clean, and you will be ready for the Master to use you for every good work.
2 Timothy 2:21
The Bible makes it clear that God has a plan for each life, and He wants to use us to accomplish His purposes. At the same time, as Paul expressed to Timothy, some people “special instruments,” particularly prepared and “useful to the Master.” What makes these people so special in God's eyes?
These people become special not because God made them special, but because of their deeper level of personal commitment to God, spending their time and resources for God and giving more priority to Him alone. Do what is necessary to be available for God and more sensitive to His leading.
These people, whom God uses in a special way, demonstrate their commitment by purifying ourselves, making a conscious decision to cleanse our minds and hearts, and eliminating “anything dishonorable.”
No one magically becomes a special vessel. This requires preparation. Paul talked about being cleansed. He described how we have choices regarding the ideas we think about, the things we do, and the words we speak.
Today do you want to be a special instrument to be used by God, then make more time for God, give Him priority, cleanse yourselves, make every effort to do and say things that are pleasing to God, avoid the wrong people and situations, monitor your words, always seek to honor God, and be serious about the faith.
Today, seek to do your part in the decisions you make and the things you do. In doing so God will use you as a special instrument.
