10 Ways God Desires to Set Apart His People

Sometimes we misunderstand what set apart means for God’s people.

Because the purpose in being set apart is to be set to something else.

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

It means desiring someone else—God. And not desiring the things of this world more.

So here are 10 things God desires to set us apart from that help us to desire Him.

(1.) God desires to set us 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.”

(2.) God desires to set us apart from 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.
