But you are a Chosen Generation, A Royal Priesthood, a Holy Nation, His own special people that may proclaim the Praises of Him who has called you out of darkness into His marvelous light." ~ I Peter 2:9
How wonderful it is to be Chosen. This is one of the many wonderful scriptures that prove to be excellent outline for the characteristics of Christian living. The scripture reminds us that being Chosen by God is what we should strive for in life. Sistahs, we are in a unique position. God is going to continue to richly bless each woman as she prays for, encourages, and helps people God has put in our space. Knowing that we are Chosen also means that you can’t let your guard down. There is a promise and a purpose for your lives because you are Chosen. And, because you are doing the work that God has called you to; the adversary keeps trying to come at you and knock you of course. 1 Peter 5:8 Be sober, vigilant because your adversary the devil walks around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Be careful watch and pray. Don’t let anything separate you from the will of God who Chose you, a Holy Nation. Remember that because we are Chosen by Him, and we have power to overtake the enemy.
We as children of the most High God must understand that being a Chosen generation: means you should be a bold daring disciple for the Lord. No matter what happens around you remember that you are covered by the Blood of the Lamb, that you are the head, and not the tail. God wants us are to be above the drama, above anger, above the mess, above the lies, above the deceit, above confusion, above the darkness and not below.
So, I appeal to you today, do all that you can to walk in His purpose. For walking in His favor and purpose is the very thing that can make others around you want what you have; a relationship with a True and Living God. And this relationship can’t be built by just attending church on Sunday, singing in the choir, and praise team or serving on the usher board but, it is the awesome daily prayerful, walking relationship with One who is able to keep you from falling.
So, where will your power come from today?
Are you a daring disciple for the Lord? Are you able to stand firm when the enemy attacks you, your family, and friends? Can you stand in the gap and pray for their situations? Are you willing to be a Champion for the cause of Christ? Remember you are Chosen. Are you ready and able to run this race?
Sistahs we are:
Chosen for Greatness
We have a Chosen Destiny
We are working for kingdom building and are Chosen Servants
Some of us have been Chosen to Birth a Vision:
We have been Chosen to be a Vessel with gifts and talents that can bear witness to God’s love, grace and His Mercy.
We are Chosen to Praise and Glorify God
