Grace and Calling Part I
But even before I was born, God chose me and called me by his marvelous grace. Then it pleased him. {Gal 1:15 NLT}
The blessing will make you think and act differently, because of the knowledge of Christ you possess. True prosperity starts with the renewal of your mind/heart by the word of God. Our scriptural focus for today states – But even before I was born, God chose me and called me by his marvelous grace. Then it pleased him
Having discussed his past character and conduct towards the church, Apostle Paul now explains his conversion experience which is the most important event in his life and should also be in the life of every believer. By narrating his divine encounter with Christ, he was only saying to those accusing him that – The message i preach to others, I have experienced it personal. Apostle Paul was also emphasizing – I am a product of Gods marvelous Grace, I am not the one responsible for all the work coming out from my life, only God who called him can do them.
As a believer, the message you’re preaching or the lifestyle you expect others to live, have you experienced it?, Is it very clear to you that whatever special abilities you manifest as a believer, is only a byproduct of Gods grace? If the answer is Yes, then you’re on the right path like apostle paul but if No is the answer, then you’re on the path of destruction if you don’t repent.
You must realize that whatever assignment you’re doing in Gods church after your conversion, are things He chose you to do before you were born, don’t be proud about it nor should you be envious of another person’s own assignment. Give your assignment your very best.
You’re chosen by grace.
Have a Grace filled day – Good News awaits you.
