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".
Now we are the children of God, we don't know what we will be but we do know when he appears we will be like Him for we shall see Him as He is. Rather we like it, or believe it there is a way a child of the living God is suppose to live. We have been called out of darkness into His marvelous light, chosen to be holy, and our lives should sing praises to the one who saved us.
We have been called out by God, choosen to bear fruit and fruit that will last. But the only way to lead a lost soul to Christ is if we are living a life that shows others the way. 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 the dark, without shining the light we proclaim to be born of. 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 to be careful not to be so focused on showing everybody that we are saved, that we forget to show the world there is a savior. Jesus saves and when we live the life we have been called to live, a lost world will know that He saves. Let us focus on living a life worthy of the name which we bear that others may come to know what we know, that Jesus saves....
