Acts 13:2
v. 2: While these leaders were worshiping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit spoke to them. He said, Set apart for me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them (Acts 13:2 a). This showed that only God can truly choose and appoint his servants. The task was not described in detail, but Barnabas and Saul already knew what God wanted from earlier calls (Acts 9:15; Acts 22:21 b, Galatians 2:7-9 c). Being chosen by the Holy Spirit means being set apart from other work to serve Christ and help spread the gospel.
