1 Peter 2:9 "But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a peculiar people: that ye should show forth the praises of Him who hath called you out of darkness into His marvelous light".
There is a way a child of God is suppose to live. He should be worshiped with our life and praised with our living. We have been called out of darkness into His marvelous light, to bear witness to the light. We are not the light but chosen to bear witness to the light, chosen to be holy in a unholy world, and our lives should sing praises to the one who saved us.
We have been chosen by God to lead lost souls to Christ. we must live a life that shows others the way to Jesus the light of the world. Our life is one of sacrifice and service. We should live a life that bears witness to the truth of our testimony to a dying world, that Jesus is the Christ the son of the living God who taketh away the sin of the world. That He died on a cross rose the third day morning with all power in heaven and earth in His hands. This is the truth we proclaim and it is the truth that our lives should reflect. We should not be walking in darkness proclaiming to be children of the light. We should not be living a lost life if we proclaim to know the way. The world may tell you what you can or cannot do , but the word of God tells us we are a chosen generation, chosen to lead lost souls to the salvation of the Lord. If God called us to it , you can believe He has equipped us to do it.
Many have allowed the beliefs of this world, to dictate how they should live. We have gotten so focused on showing everybody how saved and holy we are, that we no longer live a life that shows the world there is a savior. Jesus saves and if we lived the life we have been called to live, a lost world would know that He saves. Let us focus on living a life of praise and bring glory to the only begotten of God.
