Abilities Found in the Bible Part 2

 

    Your personality and abilities are influenced by life events and experiences, but it does not change who you are.  No matter what you face, use what God gave you to serve Him in love.  He will use the hard times, hurt, and other people to heal or make you strong.  The past does not go away, but how you deal with it can change your future.  Obey God and you will be blessed.

    The Investigative personality is represented by the craftsmen that God assigned to build His temple and design things.  It is a skill needed to learn, educate, and perfect a talent because it drives you not to give up.  Investigation requires critical thinking, reflective thought, and flexibility to change direction.  An unconventional attitude helps with creativity in the process.  It takes logic and order to determine how to make things work.

    The Artistic personality is represented by Bezalel.  His talents were to lead and teach the craftsmen, builders, and construction.  He had creative expression.  He recreated the work of other people to make it work for them as they traveled nonstop for 40 years.  He was validated and gave feedback to all that contributed to his work.

    The Levites represented the Realistic personality.  They all had their all skills to contribute.  They did come across harsh and inhumane to today's standards, but they followed God's directions.  They were God's representatives, so that required a lot of different abilities.  They balanced their emotions and solved problems pragmatically.  They were conventional in their politics.  They worked hard and were spiritually, physically, emotionally, and mentally strong.

    Aaron's sons represent the conventional personality.  Aaron's sons were Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.  Like other sibling, they were probably very different, but put together their abilities made them priesthood leaders.  They followed the rules and made sure everyone else did too.  They were very orderly and methodical in what they did.  Everything had a purpose and reason.  They taught and trained with that mindset.
