Bezalel and the First Filling of the Spirit: God’s Blueprint for Creativity. When most people think of being filled with the Holy Spirit, they imagine preaching, miracles, or bold evangelism. Yet the first person Scripture describes as “filled with the Spirit” was not a prophet or a priest, but an artist and craftsman. Bezalel’s calling to build the tabernacle shows that God delights in creativity and equips His people to reflect His beauty.
