Mornings with God Devotional 5 July 2022 Message
It is a great honor to be chosen by God for some noble position or some great service.
Abraham was chosen from among all the men of his age to be the beginner of a family that would serve the Lord and become the inheritors of His grace. Jacob was chosen to be the father of the people of God to whom the divine revelations might be entrusted.
Jesus chose twelve men to be His apostles, that they might be trained and thus be prepared to become His witnesses after He was gone. Christ is always choosing men and women for special duties and special responsibilities.
Indeed He is always choosing us for something good or something beautiful; sometimes for joy, sometimes for sorrow. “Ye did not choose Me,” He says to us, “but I chose you, and appointed you, that ye should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should abide.”
Whatever it may be for which we are chosen, so far as condition and experience may go, we know that the Master’s final desire is that we may bear fruit in love and service.
