YOU ARE SET APART

But know that the LORD hath set apart him that is godly for himself: the LORD will hear when I call unto him. (Psalms 4:3). The only reason why God will hear when you call Him is because your are godly and then you are set apart. For you to be set apart means you are meant for a particular purpose. This being the case, there is a way you should live your life, there is a limit to what you can do, but there is no limit to the blessings that will result. As someone set apart, you cannot be found everywhere unbelievers go, you cannot do the things they do, and you cannot live the way they live.

Know that every believer is set apart. The scripture says in 1 Peter 2:9-10, “But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light: Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.” This shows the status of believers who are set apart and the characteristic of their lives; chosen, royal priesthood, holy, perculiar, and so on. The next verses talk about the requirements of the believer who is set apart, “Dearly beloved, I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul; Having your conversation honest among the Gentiles: that, whereas they speak against you as evildoers, they may by your good works, which they shall behold, glorify God in the day of visitation.” These are the requirements of one who is set apart. Live your life with these in mind and whenever you call, God will hear you.
