CHOSEN AND HOLY! 1 Peter 2:9

"But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God's special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light." - 1 Peter 2:9

We as Christians are chosen to be part of God's family! But we must know who is who. Some pastors and teachers only pretend and don't know what they're talking about! The Holy Spirit will guide you in this. Jesus chose us to be His disciples! Followers of the Truth. Jesus. When we are chosen for a special event, we feel special don't we? It is the same with Jesus! We must use what He has given us to His glory. Otherwise the Devil comes and snatches the little seed we have and takes it away. Even a little seed of the Word is powerful! SEE Matthew 17:20/Matthew 13. Some Christians doubt we are Holy! But the Bible says it all!

1 Peter 1:16-
Since it is written, “You shall be holy, for I am holy.”

1 Peter 1:15-

But as he who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct


I may as well fill this whole page up with scriptures! One main scripture is Psalm 96:9 "Worship the Lord in the splendor of holiness; tremble before him, all the earth!". How can we worship the Lord if we are not holy? Jesus redeemed that problem and that is that! We are chosen and holy!

Revere Christ as Lord!

"But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect." - 1 Peter 3:15. Whenever we are being trialled or tested for our faith, we should never deny it. Take the opportunity to tell them about God. Preach to them and give them the chance to hear about God. It may work, it may not. But all you know is, you accomplished your part of the mission. You've preached to them. Now it's there decision to come to Christ. Notice the Bible says do it with GENTLENESS. We don't use violence to try and preach the Gospel. We don't force people to believe in our reality. We use one of the fruit of the spirit (See Galatians 5:22 for a full list) Now you may wonder why Peter says 'with respect' when God says: "Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:" - Acts 10:34.

Most Powerful

8 I have set the Lord always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved. (‭Psalms‬ ‭16‬:‭8‬ KJV) In this verse, David is actually having a revelation about Jesus from the Holy Ghost. Let me explain. You see- as Christians, Jesus is the one who is before us. The One we follow. He is at our right hand and protects us. And because of Him, we are not moved. The Lord is you Leader, Provider and Guide. Without him, your steps would be without guide and you would have no knowledge of the path you are taking. You would be vulnerable to Satan and he will be able to destroy you. But-thank God- he can't destroy us. Christ lives in us, the most powerful Thing ever!
