Scripture: Numbers 6
Observation: God has always called His people to continue growing closer to Him. The Nazerite vows are really interesting. It is interesting how almost every possible situation is thought of, including what to do if someone suddenly drops dead beside you! (I wonder how often that happened?) The most interesting thing to me, though, was that this vow was voluntary. Up to this point, God has pretty much said, this group will do this, and that tribe will do that, but the Nazerite vow was left up to each individual. It was their responsibility to set themselves apart.
Application: Jesus makes us Holy. His blood covers us and sets us apart. But, it is our choice, our responsibility to accept that gift. After we’ve accepted Jesus it is our choice as to what steps we’ll take to move closer to Him.
Prayer: God help me set myself apart.
