“But you are the ones chosen by God, chosen for the high calling of priestly work, chosen to be a holy people, God’s instruments to do his work and speak out for him, to tell others of the night-and-day difference he made for you—from nothing to something, from rejected to accepted.” 1 Peter 2:9-10 MSG
We talk a lot as Christians of what we have been saved from, but equally important is what we have been saved for! We have been called out of darkness and into light, called to be light, filled with the Spirit of God, given spiritual gifts and enabled to grow spiritual fruit to actually make a Kingdom difference in this world. Sent, with a powerful message of transformational hope and power that is found through believing in the life, death and resurrection of Jesus, and is outworked as we walk with Him! Lord, thank You for saving me from the penalty of my sin, past, present and future. It is so good to get that, but Lord would You lead me into what You have saved me for, wake me up more to the calling You have placed on my life to be a representative, an influencer, for Your Kingdom come. Help me to get that too! Amen 👆🏼🙏🏼
Just a reminder that this Saturday at church – 10am-1pm we’re meeting to explore what it is God has called us to, the responsibility and influence we have as followers of Jesus! Come and consider His calling on your life and the difference we can make as we walk in faith and obedience and take hold of the promises He has spoken over us! Sign up if you can or just turn up 😊
