YOU ARE CHOSEN THE TRANSPARENT CHOSEN Luke 22:31 And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat: 32 But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren. Did you ever know or are you a person that feels like you have been picked out to be picked on? Did you ever take the time out to consider that God is working on your testimony? Ecclesiastes 9:11; I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all. It is important to know that, (in our storm), it is God that has chosen us personally for the task. Sometimes to get us where He wants us to be or to do what He wants us to do He has to turn us over to the desires of the sifter, (satin). Thanks be to God and our Lord Jesus Christ with the aid of the Holy Ghost that interception and prayer has been made that our faith is made strong. We know that no weapon form against us shall prosper, and that all things are working for our good. We hold on to the fact that nothing is able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus. In and as we either are going through our trials or after we come out are times when its best to be transparent. 1 Peter 2:9; But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light; Consider how we are able to see Job as he say, the Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away: blessed be the name of the Lord. Or when he said, though He slay me, yet will I serve Him. All those that continue to help us walk and stand in confident that the Lord is able to bring us through: we are able through the word of God to get a view of many that did not have it easy but God kept them. Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph. Sometimes God has to allow you to be put in a pit, sold, and even be falsely accuse so that he can get you to the palace. The word of God shows us Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah: how and ungodly king would call them out of their name only to give them name that represented the names of his own gods. Daniel 1:6; Now among these were of the children of Judah, Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah: 7 Unto whom the prince of the eunuchs gave names: for he gave unto Daniel the name of Belteshazzar; and to Hananiah, of Shadrach; and to Mishael, of Meshach; and to Azariah, of Abednego. It is in Gods will that we sometimes are tried with the kings meat, put in a fiery furnace, and thrown in lions dens, so that he can get a wicked king to confess like Nebuchadnezzar. Daniel 3:28; Then Nebuchadnezzar spake, and said, Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who hath sent his angel, and delivered his servants that trusted in him, and have changed the kings word, and yielded their bodies, that they might not serve nor worship any god, except their own God. GOD is able to cause Darius to change his mind about prayer. 18 Then the king went to his palace, and passed the night fasting: neither were instruments of musick brought before him: and his sleep went from him. 18 Then the king went to his palace, and passed the night fasting: neither were instruments of musick brought before him: and his sleep went from him. 19 Then the king arose very early in the morning, and went in haste unto the den of lions. 20 And when he came to the den, he cried with a lamentable voice unto Daniel: and the king spake and said to Daniel, O Daniel, servant of the living God, is thy God, whom thou servest continually, able to deliver thee from the lions? Daniel 6:21 Then said Daniel unto the king, O king, live for ever. 22 My God hath sent his angel, and hath shut the lions mouths, that they have not hurt me: forasmuch as before him innocency was found in me; and also before thee, O king, have I done no hurt. 23 Then was the king exceedingly glad for him, and commanded that they should take Daniel up out of the den. So Daniel was taken up out of the den, and no manner of hurt was found upon him, because he believed in his God. 24 And the king commanded, and they brought those men which had accused Daniel, and they cast them into the den of lions, them, their children, and their wives; and the lions had the mastery of them, and brake all their bones in pieces or ever they came at the bottom of the den. 25 Then king Darius wrote unto all people, nations, and languages, that dwell in all the earth; Peace be multiplied unto you. 26 I make a decree, That in every dominion of my kingdom men tremble and fear before the God of Daniel: for he is the living God, and stedfast for ever, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed, and his dominion shall be even unto the end. 27 He delivereth and rescueth, and he worketh signs and wonders in heaven and in earth, who hath delivered Daniel from the power of the lions...
