A CHOSEN PEOPLE

1 Peter 2:9 But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should show forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:

 

Whenever you feel insignificant take out your Bible and read this verse.  It should make you aware of how special you are to our Creator.   If you are saved you have been chosen as an ambassador of the Lord Jesus Christ and should be representing Him in this world.  When people see you they should see Christ working in you.

 

If they are not saved, you are the one who can go before God's throne of grace and pray for them and their infirmities.  You are a part of a Royal Priesthood that has access through our High Priest Jesus Christ.  Now that is something special.

 

You are important in God's plan and He has great work for you to do.  You have no right as a Christian to feel insignificant.  Instead you have a duty to show forth His praises and reveal to the world how He called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.
