What does it mean to be CHOSEN? Jesus told the disciples in John 15:16 “Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.” The CHOSEN are those that make the decision that for God I live or for God I die. The CHOSEN obey God in-spite of the cost. The CHOSEN say thou he slay me yet will I trust in Him. The CHOSEN are those that cry at night but still get up with a praise on their lips. The CHOSEN die to their flesh daily and hide themselves in the word of God. The CHOSEN refuse to compromise. The CHOSEN understand that their life is like a TV program and it’s being watched so they strive daily to live holy so that they are not held accountable for lost souls that could result from 1 episode of their life. The CHOSEN don’t live to please men but they live to please God. So it matters to the CHOSEN how people see them. The CHOSEN strive to live a life that is respectable, honorable and that exemplifies the kingdom. Many are called but few are CHOSEN. ARE YOU CHOSEN OR HAVE YOU JUST BEEN CALLED?
