BLESSED CALLING. By JOHN VARGHESE.
The Bible says in Genesis 12:1-3, The Lord had said to Abram, “Leave your country, your people and your father’s household and go to the land I will show you.“I will make you into a great nation and I will bless you; I will make your name great, and you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you.” Here we see that God called Abram to bless him, to make a blessing to others, to be a blessing through him. To receive this blessings from God he has to leave his country and his people and his household and go to the land God will show to him. He obeyed and received God's blessings. Again in 1 Peter 3:9, the Bible says, Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult, but with blessing, because to this you were called so that you may inherit a blessing. God called us also to inherit blessings through Jesus Christ His son, so do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult but bless those who insult you or do evil to you, bless them then and you will inherit the blessings of Christ. Amen.
The Bible says in Ephesians 1:3, "Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ. For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love he predestined us to be adopted as his sons through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will— to the praise of his glorious grace, which he has freely given us in the One he loves.In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace that he lavished on us with all wisdom and understanding. And he made known to us the mystery of his will according to his good pleasure, which he purposed in Christ, to be put into effect when the times will have reached their fulfillment—to bring all things in heaven and on earth together under one head, even Christ." What a wonderful calling we have in and through Jesus Christ! He chose us before creation or before Abraham. So our calling is a more blessed calling than Abram's calling. Amen.
The word of God says in Hebrews 3:1-6, "Therefore, holy brothers, who share in the heavenly calling, fix your thoughts on Jesus, the apostle and high priest whom we confess. He was faithful to the one who appointed him, just as Moses was faithful in all God’s house. Jesus has been found worthy of greater honor than Moses, just as the builder of a house has greater honor than the house itself. For every house is built by someone, but God is the builder of everything. Moses was faithful as a servant in all God’s house, testifying to what would be said in the future. But Christ is faithful as a Son over God’s house. And we are his house, if we hold on to our courage and the hope of which we boast." Fix our eyes and thoughts on Jesus who called us to bless us and lead a radiant life for God's glory on this earth in this period. God bless you...
