Even as [in His love] He chose us
[actually picked us out for Himself as His own] in Christ before the foundation
of the world, that we should be holy (consecrated and set apart for Him) and
blameless in His sight, even above reproach, before Him in love.
I came
that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the
full, till it overflows).
Ephesians 1:4, John10:10
Amplified
Bible (AMP)
كما
اختارنا فيه قبل تأسيس العالم لنكون قديسين وبلا لوم قدامه في المحبة
انا فقد أتيت لتكون لهم حياة وليكون لهم افضل .
As believers who have accepted Jesus Christ as our Lord and
Saviour; according to the above scripture; God
chose us before the world was formed, He knew us.
We are called to a fullness of life which far exceeds the
dimensions of our earthly existence, because it consists in sharing the very
life of God.
Not only has
He chosen us, but He has equipped us with everything we need to live His
abundant life. In order to be all that God has called us to be, we have to see
ourselves as chosen, valuable, and victorious.
I invite you to repeat the following prayer for yourself:
Abba Father, thank You that You have picked me as Your own in Christ
even before the foundation of the earth and that through Christ’s blood You
consider me blameless in Your sight. Help me Lord to understand my value as it
stems from You and to rise higher and higher into the abundant life of victory
and joy You have prepared for me. Father, help me to see myself as chosen,
valuable and victorious. Lord, show me Your ways that I may be holy
(consecrated and set apart for You) and walk with You in confidence and trust all the days of my life. In the
name of my Lord and Saviour Jesus The Christ, I pray to You Father. To Jesus be
the power, the glory, the majesty, and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.
In Him,
Wagdi Henein
