Chosen People For a Special Purpose

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 God is suppose to live. We have been chosen for a special purpose, to lead lost souls to the salvation of the Lord.

We have been chosen by God 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 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 say what we can or cannot do, but the word of God tells us we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us. We can do all that we need to do, 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 must be careful not to get so hung up on showing the world we are saved that we forget to show them the one who saves. Jesus saves and if we lived the life we have been called to live, the world would 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....
