10 Freeing Ways to Be Set Apart for God

We often misunderstand what set apart means for God’s people. Because the purpose in being set apart is to be set to something else. It means set apart for God.

Biblically speaking, something else is desiring what God desires for us.

It means desiring someone else, desiring God. And not desiring the things of this world more than the Lord.

So here are 10 freeing ways we are set apart for God and to Him.

(1.) Set apart from other gods.

Even after we realize God is the one true God, we still struggle with letting Him reign supreme in our lives. And other gods are anything or anyone that take the Lord’s place in our heart, even “me” and my desires.

(2.) Set apart for God, not religion.

When the Lord sets us apart from the rules and regulations of doing to obtain salvation, we are free to just being in Him, His free gift of grace. This sets us to a deep and intimate relationship with the God of the universe.

(3.) Set apart from culture.

God never meant for us to look to humans (including ourselves) for how to live and make important life decisions. People operate in the natural while God operates in the supernatural. God’s ways and thoughts are higher than ours (Isaiah 55:8-9).
