Knowing God - He Called Us. He Saved Us.

2 Tim 1:9
Saved Us and Called Us

Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began,


The Lord has saved us according to his own purpose and grace.  We need salvation, He wants to use us.  When we step into the realm of being adopted as sons through faith in Christ, we are transferred into a life that is defined by God’s plans and purposes.  We are not getting a ticket to heaven, putting in our pocket and continuing to live our lives with our own ideas and plans ruling and reigning our lives.  He has not just saved us but He has called us with a holy calling.  This is a great truth.  This tells us that our lives have purpose that far exceeds any sort of noble plans we might conjure up.  It is of the upmost importance that we face each day with full assurance of our salvation and our calling.  We may not know all He has called us to but we do know that He has a holy calling for us.  Be open and led by His Spirit for His purposes today and you most likely will be walking in that calling with a great sense of inner purpose and calling even if you don’t recognize it.
