Called and Chosen


Have you ever thought about being special? No other person was born with your finger print. No other person matches the iris of your eye. Each and every cell in your body, every spark of your mental activity and everything about your spirit speaks – You are more than special, you are Unique.

For he (God) chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love he predestined us for adoption to sonship through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will to the praise of his glorious grace, which he has freely given us in the One he loves” – Ephesians 1: 4-6.

God’s way of calling you is through his word. If you accept Jesus Christ and read and meditate on His word, you are called and chosen.

The Spirit of God sanctifies you and sets you apart, make you special to be close with God (2 Thessalonians 2: 13-14). We might think this as the earthly glory of being rich and famous. No, this is the glory of being with and like the son of God. You need to accept his death, burial and resurrection.

Just as earthly life came through your parents, spiritual birth comes from the Spirit of God. “Truly, truly I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit” (John 3: 5-6).

Babies are born to mothers who hold and feed them. Likewise, God gives us new life by His Spirit who He poured out on us richly – covering us and caring for us.

If you have never experienced this experience, there is no need to go anywhere and do anything or give any donation to anyone, but just where you are, accept Jesus Christ in your life. Pray to God in Jesus name, read The Bible and see how God is going to take control of your life, mould it and change it as a potter makes a beautiful vessel.
May God bless you!
