God Chose you


"I have raised him up in righteousness, And I will direct all his ways; He shall build My city And let My exiles go free, Not for price nor reward,” Says the LORD of hosts. Isaiah 45:13

This verse is about the king of Persia named Cyrus, who was a non-believer. But God raised him to use him for the special purpose of freeing the children of Israel from exile and rebuilding Jerusalem. Isa 44:28

The major thing to learn here is that God is the one who lifts people up, and when God lifts you up, He doesn't use the criteria that humans use. God has His own criteria, and He lifts up anyone He wants.

Don't think you are unworthy to be used by God because of your background or origin. Sometimes, God also gives you His blessings even if you don't know Him well. Isaiah 45:4 says, "I have surnamed thee, though thou hast not known me" So, I want you to realize and know that God has chosen you just as you are and then He will transform and shape you to be the person he wants.

Don't reject God's blessings or His call in your life by thinking you are not good enough or you don't meet the standards. If God calls you, respond; if He blesses you, accept His blessings. Don't reject yourself; accept and embrace God's acceptance and love.

In life, when God lifts you to a new level, there will surely be challenges you will have to face. For some people, these challenges have caused them to make mistakes and ruin their lives completely. But when you hold on to God, things will be different because he will guide you and teach you in the way you are supposed to go.

When God says, "I will make all his paths straight," it means that He will remove all obstacles ahead of you. The important thing in your journey as a child of God is to believe that God is ahead of you, He will fight for you, and He will lead you through all challenges until you fulfill His purpose.

PRAYER: Thank you God for Your love and Your grace in my life. Thank You for loving me just as I am. I know You have a special purpose for my life. I believe You are with me to guide me until I fulfill Your purpose on earth. Amen.

THE TIME TO RECEIVE THE FRUITS OF YOUR LABOUR IS NOW

  “Say to the righteous that it shall be well with them, For they shall eat the fruit of their doings. Isaiah 3:10 NKJV This is a powerful word of hope as you begin this month.

THE WISEST THING TO DO IN YOUR LIFE

  Daniel 12:3 (GNT) says, “The wise leaders will shine with all the brightness of the sky. And those who have taught many people to do what is right will shine like the stars forever.” This verse speaks about the reward God will give His faithful people on the last day. Those who live with wisdom and lead others to righteousness will shine like stars in the sky—forever. What a powerful promise! Today, I want to teach you how to be wise so you can receive this reward. The Bible says in James 1:5 (NKJV), “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God...”  This means wisdom comes from God, and He is willing to give it to anyone who asks. When you receive God’s wisdom, you will learn how to live the right way and make decisions that please Him. You will also have the power to guide others. The wisest thing you can ever do in life is to preach the Gospel—to help people turn away from sin and accept Jesus Christ. That is the kind of wisdom that brings eternal rewards. Also, if you ...

MISPLACED FEAR

Image
Matthew 10:28  (NKJV) says: “And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.”   This is a direct call from Jesus to correct our fears. Many people fear human threats, sickness, poverty, storms, or death. Yet Jesus reminds us that these things can only touch the body. The true danger is sin, because it separates us from God and leads to eternal destruction. The only fear that matters is the fear of God, for He alone holds the destiny of both the body and soul. One day I was in a garage fixing my car. It was an open space and suddenly it began raining heavily. All the mechanics rushed to take shelter inside. As we stood, they began sharing jokes, laughing about drinking and the women they slept with. I always preach to them, telling them to repent and receive Jesus. But they laughed it off. As we were standing there inside, suddenly the storm grew stronger, with thunder and lightning flashin...
