Dear sisters and brothers in Christ Jesus, part of a growing repentance remnant globally,
Every day we can celebrate the birth of Yeshua/ Jesus. Was it September instead of December? Was it the Feast of Tabernacles because He came to tabernacle with us? In any event, all 365 days a year constitute a Holy season. And in this Holy season I believe the Risen Christ, Yeshua/ Jesus wants you and me to receive from Him, all 365 days of the year, not only His Gift of repentance, but also this Truth: He chose YOU!
Here is my chapter from "JOY in our wicked world" now on Amazon kindle:
Chapter Seven: Even More Joy Will Surface as Repentance Reveals Your Life Purpose
The Amplified version of the Bible in Mark 1: 14-15 states:
"Now after John [the Baptist] was arrested and taken into custody, Jesus went to Galilee, preaching the good news of [the kingdom of] God, and saying, “The[appointed period of] time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent [change your inner self—your old way of thinking, regret past sins, live your life in a way that proves repentance; seek God’s purpose for your life] and believe [with a deep, abiding trust] in the good news [regarding salvation].”
When you sincerely repent and by faith declare Jesus Christ as your Lord you are filled with the Holy Spirit and can then seek His Wisdom as to His purpose for your life. You are a miracle! You were born for this very time! You have a key life purpose to advance His Kingdom in this time. The Lord knew you from the time of the creation of the earth, and when you were in your mother's womb. He formed your inward parts. He knows the days fashioned for you, written in His book (Psalm 139:16).
He has chosen YOU! These are the Lord Jesus' words in John 15: 12-17:
" This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one's life for his friends. You are My friends if you do whatever I command you. No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things that I heard from My Father I have made known to you. You did not choose Me, but I chose you [put your name here ! ] and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in My name He may give you. These things I command you, that you love one another."
We see this calling from God in Paul's first letter to the Corinthians: " For you see your calling, brethren, that not many wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble are called. But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to put to shame the things that are mighty; and the base things of the world and things which are despised God has chosen, and the things which are not, to bring to nothing the things that are, that no flesh should glory in His presence. But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God---and righteousness and sanctification and redemption---that, as it is written, ' He who glories, let him glory in the LORD.'"
That you and I have a unique life purpose, a calling, is also confirmed in Paul's last letter to Timothy: " Therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me His prisoner, but share with me in the sufferings for the gospel according to the power of God, who has saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace which was given to us in Christ Jesus before time began…" (2 Timothy 1: 8-9)
Before time began He chose YOU! Like Jesus, and Nehemiah, and many others in the Bible, be filled with great JOY! You have a unique assignment from Him that only you can perform!
