We are Called with a Higher Purpose

Intro: As we look in the Book of Judges we see a husband and wife being call out by God with a specific task. Zorah’s wife was barren and was older in age , but God was about to bless them with a Child...... a special child.

Judges 13:3-5

I. When God calls Vs 3

A. Zorah and his wife were chosen for a purpose

They where barren and had no Children- no fruit

God had chose them for their faithfulness and obedience

B. God has chosen us.

We area chosen generation I Peter 2:9

We are Blessed and chosen for an inheritance. Psalms 33:12

II. The call of a Nazirite Vs 4-5

A. What is a Nazirite? Numbers 6:1-21

The meaning of Nazirite means “to be separated.” Nazirite has almost same meaning with the word “holy” which means sanctified

Both men and women can make the Nazirite vow. Nazirites are commanded not just to drink wine, but they also must stay away from grapes or vineyards altogether. This is done to lessen the temptation to sin.

B. Are we to be called out like the Nazirites?

Paul clearly states the we are to be separated from others. I Corinthians 6:17-18

To be separate is a changing of the mind. Paul Tells the CHRISTIANS in Romans 12:1-2

Conclusion:

As We see God called these 2 people to raise a boy for a specific task. He needed to learn to be holy and separated from the rest of the world. But Samson failed in that task he struggled constantly, but don’t we as Christians we struggle with our sin nature. Christ called us out to do a task to Spread the Gospel are we up for the task.? Can we be the Modern day Nazirite for Christ? “Holy and Separated”
