DAY TWO: The Chosen Inquire of the Lord

Most believers understand that they are called, but what most may not understand is that the calling is just an invitation. The next level is to become chosen, which is predicated upon how you respond to the invitation. God has already chosen you, but your choice to follow Him completely is yours alone.

This is the beauty of free will and the power of choice. God created you to know Him and to have an intimate relationship with Him. How do you respond to the calling of God as He calls you to something bigger than yourself? What you decide indicates whether you are just one of those who received the invitation or if you are one who received the invitation and accepted it.

We must remember that God doesn’t sift through humanity and choose one person over the other. God is not a respecter of persons. He doesn’t gather us all together like a sea of humanity and say, “I choose this one. I choose that one.” No. Being chosen depends on what we do. The decisions we make. The sacrifices we make.

We have to get back to inquiring of God what His will is for our lives. We need revelation. We need understanding.
