Living With The Heart Of God
Wednesday, July 22, 2026
When I order something online, it sometimes comes with words I dread… ‘Some assembly required.’ If I had a mechanical mind, or if I was the one who wrote the instruction manual, I wouldn’t need all the instructions, I would naturally know what went where. But since I’m not mechanically inclined, I have to rely on outward instructions. When the Israelites had to build the tabernacle, God put His Spirit inside of a man named Bezalel. This enabled Bezalel to put the tabernacle together without a manual. Some believers try to live a life for God, relying only on laws, simply trying to fulfill the letter of the Word. But the key is to live with the Spirit of God in your heart for if you live from the heart and Spirit of the one who wrote the Bible, you will naturally do the things that are good. You’ll do what’s right from your heart, and you’ll do it freely like Bezalel. If you live with God’s heart and walk by His Spirit, you won’t just read the Bible; you’ll live it.
From Message #1109 – Thou Wilt
Scripture: 1 Samuel 16:7

Comment: Bezalel had a heart for God therefore he had a heart of “self-forgetfulness”. (See post 07/19/2026 – “The Freedom of Self Forgetfulness – The Path to True Christian Joy.” by Timothy Keller / ISBN: 9781906173418). A heart for God is “sine qua non” to self-forgetfulness.
sine qua non /sĭn″ĭ kwä nŏn′, nōn′, sī″nĭ, kwā/

- An essential element or condition.
- An essential or indispensable element, condition, or ingredient.
