Testimony 30/09/06: Why Did He Choose You?

Why did He choose you? Why did He choose you to be saved? Why did He choose you to serve Him?

Because of what you can do? Do you think the God who creates the universe is not powerful enough to do what He wants to do?

Because of your knowledge? Do you think there is any thoughts or ideas that have never passed His mind before?

Because of your money? Do you think the God who puts the stars in their place is lack of capital?

Why did He choose you?

He chose you because He wants to. Because He loves you… because you are His.

“For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith ~ and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God ~ not by works, so that no one can boast.”
Ephesians 2:8-9 (NIV)

“How foolish can you be? After starting your Christian lives in the Spirit, why are you now trying to become perfect by your own human effort?”
Galatians 3:3 (NLT)

"So he said to me, "This is the word of the LORD to Zerubbabel: 'Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit,' says the LORD Almighty."
Zechariah 4:6 (NIV)

***

Grace Alone


Every promise we can make
Every prayer and step of faith
Every difference we will make
Is only by His grace

Every mountain we will climb
Every ray of hope we shine
Every blessing left behind
Is only by His grace

Grace alone which God supplies
Strength alone He will provide
Christ in us, our cornerstone
We will go forth in grace alone

Every soul we long reach
Every heart we hope teach
Everywhere we share His peace
Is only by His grace

Every loving word we say
Every tear we wipe away
Every sorrow turn to praise
Is only by His Grace
