“He hath chosen us in Him…” Eph 1:4
Have you ever thought about what it really means to be chosen by God? Do you remember an event or a series of events when it became clear that you were chosen? Did you feel God’s sovereign hand protecting and guiding you?
You have been chosen to be God’s child so you can be His representative on the earth. Paul said in Ephesians 1:5, that He planned for us to be adopted and revealed as His own children. This is our identity and purpose in one verse.
Once you discover your identity and God’s specific purpose for your life, you will no longer get all tangled up in the world around you. He has chosen you to carry His peaceful plan into a world of chaos and confusion. Represent Him, speak what He says, and carry His peace into every situation.
The world can not produce peace. Your presence should bring peace and order into the world around you. You walk in a very special purpose and calling. Let that calling shine to others around you.
“Grace be to you, and peace, from our Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ.” Eph1:3.
