To the Chosen Saint

If God has filled you with His Spirit, the very guarantee of salvation, then you should know that He has done so for a specific purpose.

Isaiah 61:1 NKJV

“The Spirit of the Lord God  is upon Me, Because the Lord  has anointed Me To preach good tidings to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, To proclaim liberty to the captives, And the opening of the prison to those  who  are bound..."

It is not you who saves, for only God can do that. You are being sent into the lost world looking for Jesus' lost sheep, commanded to feed them with the Word.

John 21:15-17 NKJV

So when they had eaten breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, “Simon, son of Jonah, do you love Me more than these?” He said to Him, “Yes, Lord; You know that I love You.” He said to him, “Feed My lambs.” He said to him again a second time, “Simon, son of Jonah, do you love Me?” He said to Him, “Yes, Lord; You know that I love You.” He said to him, “Tend My sheep.” He said to him the third time, “Simon, son of Jonah, do you love Me?” Peter was grieved because He said to him the third time, “Do you love Me?” And he said to Him, “Lord, You know all things; You know that I love You.” Jesus said to him, “Feed My sheep."

As you go forth in Jesus' name, serving Him who called you, know that not all will receive you.

Matthew 22:14 NKJV

“For many are called, but few are chosen.”

In fact, MANY will hate you for the truth you speak. Love them all, but so not take their salvation personally. That is between them and God. If you are rejected, do as Jesus commanded, and keep looking for those whom Jesus has chosen.

Matthew 10:13-15 NKJV

"If the household is worthy, let your peace come upon it. But if it is not worthy, let your peace return to you.  And whoever will not receive you nor hear your words, when you depart from that house or city, shake off the dust from your feet.  Assuredly, I say to you, it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city!"

Stay the course, and let God be God Saint.
