Psalm 42:1 (NIV) aptly captures what man’s desire concerning God should be. It says, “As the deer pants for a stream of water so my soul pants for you, my God.” So it should be for a God that gave his only begotten son to die for humanity because of the love he has for

In Genesis 1:26-28, we are told that we were created in his image to rule creation. Ecclesiastes 22:13-14 helps us understand that fearing God and

“In him, we were also chosen, having been predestined according to the plan of him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of his will.” (Ephesians 1:11 NIV) From the passage, we can conveniently say that long before we came to Earth, our purpose was defined for us. When we walk in it,

Today, I am going to showcase another “elect” chosen by God, Moses. Long before he was elected for a purpose, Moses took the law into his own hands. He killed an Egyptian who was maltreating an Israelite (Exodus 2:11-12). The aftermath found him fleeing to Midian. Then God called him in Exodus 3 and outlined

In Ephesians 2:10 of the Bible it describes believers to be “God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” Furthermore, they should be equipped so they can serve in the church, at home, and in their communities.

As mentioned in the previous post, an elect is someone chosen by God to do his will in the land of the living. An example of such a person in the Bible is the Apostle Paul. In Acts 9:15 (NIV), Jesus speaks about him, stating, “This man is my chosen instrument of proclaiming my name

This post focuses on the elect and their purpose. The Oxford Languages defines the elect as a person chosen or singled out. Merrian-Webster defines it as carefully selected: chosen for salvation through divine mercy. In the Bible, there are three verses that talk about the elect. To begin, Romans 8:33 NIV records it like this,

Heaven is God’s abode. His love for humanity made him desire for mankind to join him there. However, there is a criterion for it to be so. Isaiah 57:15 makes a point: “I live in a high and holy place but also with the one who is contrite and lowly in spirit.” Contrite means being

“In the beginning, God created the heavens and the Earth. Now the Earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters” (Genesis 1:1-2). And God said, “Let there be light,” Genesis 1:3-5, and light came on. He then created other magnificent

Today we will dwell on the word impossibility in reference to God. In Matthew 19:26, Jesus said (while speaking of salvation), “with man, this is impossible. But with God, all things are possible.” Salvation is difficult to understand from a human perspective” At another instance, in Jeremiah 32:27, he asked, “I am the Lord, the
