Unusual Selection

‎Good morning family, it's an honour to have you here. I thank God for your lifes. I pray for a fresh pour of His Spirit within you.

‎Father we love you and thank you for the bread- your words of wisdom, let our understanding be enlarged and our eyes open to see your wonderful treasures, we receive, in Jesus Name, Amen.

‎Let's break bread:

‎•The Unusual Selection Process of God:

‎1 Corinthians 1:27-29(NLT)

‎27 Instead, God chose things the world considers foolish in order to shame those who think they are wise. And he chose things that are powerless to shame those who are powerful.

‎28 God chose things despised by the world, things counted as nothing at all, and used them to bring to nothing what the world considers important.

‎29 As a result, no one can ever boast in the presence of God.

‎Note:

‎So do not despise yourself, or feel your weakness disqualifies you, He chose you and knows all about you. He loves you, His mind won't change, you belong to Him. So preach the Good News.

‎•The Wisdom Behind the Good News:

‎1 Corinthians 1:17(NLT)

‎17 For Christ didn't send me to baptise, but to preach the Good News - and not with clever speech, for fear that the cross of Christ would loose its power.

‎I Corinthians 1:21-22(NLT)

‎21 Since God in his wisdom saw to it that the world would never know him though human wisdom, he has used our foolish preaching to save those who believe.

‎22 It is foolish to the Jews, who ask for signs from heaven. And it is foolish to the Greeks, who seek human wisdom.

‎Notes:

‎Truthfully share your testimony, let the Holy Spirit reveal Himself to them. Don't try to prove anything or win them over. Keep planting the seeds, it is God who causes it to grow and bear fruit. Another would be sent to water and another to harvest.

‎•Warning:

‎Romans 16:17(NLT)

‎17 And now I make one more appeal, my dear brothers and sisters. Watch out for people who cause divisions and upset people's faith by teaching things contrary to what you have been taught. Stay away from them.

‎•Assurance and Partnership:

‎1 Corinthians 1:8-9(NLT)

‎8 He will keep you strong to the end so that you will be free from all blame on the day when our Lord Jesus Christ returns.

‎9 God will do this, for he is faithful to do what he says, and he has invited you into partnership with his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

‎Do you want to be in partnership with our Lord Jesus, if yes say with me:

‎Dear Jesus, I say yes, come into my heart, I make you my Lord and Saviour, I repent of my sins, I believe you died on the cross to reconcile me back to God, I receive your love and new life, Amen!

‎God loves you just the way you are!
