Podcasts about you are chosen

You Are Chosen

Mindset Guru "JD" Interviews Taylor Foreman in another episode for Mom's entitled "YOU ARE CHOSEN!" Taylor speaks into why Mom's need to believe they are chosen and how to live it out!

You Are Chosen!John 15:16 "You did not choose me but I chose you. And I appointed you to go and bear fruit, fruit that will last so that the Father will give you whatever you ask him in my name.”This was the verse that the praise leader talked about at the prayer group yesterday. Her talk lined up so much with yesterday's episode of the podcast. Then we had a bookmark yesterday at a prayer group, and her talk and my episode both lined up perfectly with the bookmark. Our bookmarks are a compilation of the Lord's Word for the month. The month we happened to be going over was October 2023. I love how God does that. He takes His word that we have discerned from a year ago, and he fits it right in with what we are talking about today. God is so good. I guess that is a good reminder that God's word is timeless. It is always relevant, no matter when He gives it to us.What I love about this verse is that it reminds us that we are chosen. We didn't choose God; He chose us. We are the chosen ones. How great is that? Even if you feel rejected by everyone else in your family or all those who surround you, you can rest assured that you are chosen by God. You are chosen by the one true King. You are chosen by the creator of the universe. God could have chosen anyone, and He chose you. That is something to hold onto. That is something to remind yourself of when you are struggling. God chose you!The praise leader did an excellent job of explaining what it means to be chosen and what it means to bear lasting fruit. I would like to share this with you today. The audio quality is not great because I recorded it on my phone in a room full of people. However, it is too good of a teaching not to share just because of the audio quality. Here is Louise giving her teaching on the verse above.Do we really know what it means to be chosen? I did a little bit of background reading in my commentaries, and a particular person that I read mentioned a few things about being chosen, and one of the things that he mentioned was that when Jesus chose us, He chose us for joy, and joy we find in doing the right thing, and joy we find and exhibit when we recognize that yeah, we're sinners, we make mistakes, we do things wrong, but we are redeemed sinners, and that brings joy, that allows us to be joyful in the midst of us making a mess. We are chosen for love.Jesus wants us to live in such a way that we show love to our fellow men and women, and that's not an easy task, but what we can remember is if we look at Jesus, His whole life, He lived that. He always was showing love to men and women, always. They came first.He focused on them. He met their needs, whether they needed healing, whether they needed forgiveness, whether they needed a word of encouragement, He met their needs, and that's the kind of life He wants us to live. He's also called us to be His friends, and one of the things this commentary shared, which I've never thought about is, you know, when back in the Old Testament, when He said this to His disciples, this would have really struck home with them, because the Old Testament way of thinking was that to be a slave of God, to be a real servant of God, that was one of the highest honors you could have.That was one of the highest honors you could have. You know, people strung for it. The prophets, they were called, you know, servants of God, slaves of God.Well, Jesus then takes it a step further and says, I no longer call you slaves, I call you friends. And being friends and not being a slave means that you know what the Master is about. A slave doesn't. A slave just does what he's told. He doesn't know the intimacy of a relationship with his Master. He doesn't know his Master's thinking. He doesn't know why his Master wants to do something. He doesn't understand. He just does what he's told.Well, Jesus wants us to be friends. He wants that intimacy with us. And one of the things, too, that I read was Abraham was called a friend of God. He wasn't just called a servant of God. Abraham was a friend of God. And why was Abraham a friend of God? Because he intimately talked with God and listened to God and followed God even when he didn't understand what God meant and how things could happen.So one of the things we need to remember is that you know what? Jesus didn't choose us for a series of tremendous privileges. Although he does give us those. Joy and peace and you know, they're all ours. He gives them to us. But that isn't the main reason he chooses us. He chooses us to be partners with him. That, when you think about it, is phenomenal. I know I'm not what I consider a good partner with Jesus. But I believe that God looks at each one of us and says, you are a great partner. And you're a great partner because you have an intimate relationship with me. And you try to listen to me. And you praise me when you can. And you try to do what I'm telling you. And yeah, okay, you mess it up. But you're still a great partner. And that's what he wants from us.He also calls us to be ambassadors. When you think about an ambassador's job in the government, they're there to represent the country that they come from. And to keep things peaceful and to keep things flowing. And that's what Jesus wants for us. We're ambassadors of him, of his way, of the gospel. And to try to keep things peaceful and keep things flowing and help people when they need the help. Whatever it is, a word, a prayer, whatever.This one I like too. He said, he calls us to be advertisements. And sometimes I'm not the best advertisement of the gospel. And I have to admit that. You know, there's lots of times we lose our cool. We get impatient. We don't do the loving thing. We don't think of others first. We're caught up in our own. I do it more sometimes in the way I drive, because I have to get somewhere, and you're in my way. It's like, you know, you're not going fast enough. Or you're going too fast, and so I'm criticizing you. It doesn't matter. But I'm not always the best advertisement.But he calls us to be an advertisement. And advertisements are to attract. They're there to attract you to a product, to something, to whatever, to a cause. And Jesus wants us to advertise Him and His love. And so we do the best we can. And as ambassadors and as advertisements, He wants us to bear fruit. And this I was struck with. I appointed you to go and bear fruit. Fruit that will last. When He appoints us to do something, He gives us the anointing to do it also. And He wants us to bear fruit.So if we keep our intimacy and our relationship with Him, we're going to bear fruit. And He's promised that that fruit will last. That really struck me when I read this this time. It was like, oh, He didn't just say, okay, for today, you're going to bear fruit, and that's it. It's, you know, this fruit, you're going to bear fruit, but it will last. And it will last because it is the fruit of His Spirit of work in us. You know? So that whatever we ask of the Father in His name, the Father will give us. And it just reminds us that there's a prayer of faith. We have to believe that the Father will give us what we ask. Because we're asking in the name of His Son, Jesus. We ask in the name of Christ. And we ask never selfishly.That's one of the things we can get caught up in. You know, when He tells us that whatever you ask the Father in my name, He'll give you, it doesn't mean God's going to answer every prayer. Especially sometimes, when we ask for things that we believe are what we need or what someone else needs, this would be the best way for the church to do it, so anoint these people, God. And Jesus says, we need to pray; thy will be done. And then the biggest thing is to accept the answer God gives us.That sometimes is the hardest thing for all of us. But these are all parts of being chosen. And I felt like the Lord gave me this because we're going to honor our brothers and sisters who've gone on before us. They were also chosen. And now they're at home and at rest and at peace in Jesus. They bore fruit that lasted.Touched their families. Touched their communities. Touched our hearts. God is asking us to do the same, but He's also giving us the grace to do it. He will make us holy. We don't have to make ourselves holy. He will make us holy. And that holiness is the fruit that will last. That people will see. That people will be attracted to. So we'll be those ambassadors. We'll be those advertisements. We will be the partners Jesus wants.Wasn't that an amazing teaching! Didn't it go so well with yesterday's episode where I invited you to be the face of Jesus to all those you meet? God is so good in how He aligns everything. I just want to share the bookmark with you from yesterday too as it went perfectly with both yesterday's episode and this teaching and yet God gave us these words a whole year ago. The Word's from the Lord for the bookmark in October 2023 that we read at yesterday's meeting are, “When you are ruffled, when you are anxious, call on my peace.  Don't let it stay dormant.  It is not a feeling; it's an inner peace that only I can give.  It comes only from the heart, not the mind.  I am the song within you and gently my message must go out to the world.  Let it be a melody that touches each heart that you meet.  I am the song, the joy and the hope.  I am the entire well- being of your soul.  I am with you until the end of time and my peace will be ever with you.  A peace so deep within your being; that it will affect everything you do and transform those around you.  See with my eyes the world around you.  I have placed in all of my creation a mark that is truly connected to me.  In some, it's like a dying ember.  I need you with the gift of the spirit, to breathe on that ember so it will become a flame.These words remind us of our call to go out and touch the hearts of all those we meet. Just as the verse today and yesterday are calling us to do.Dear Heavenly Father I ask you to bless all those listening. I pray you put on our hearts how we can be the face of Christ to all those we meet. I pay you show each one of us at least one way we can love someone better today. I pray you show us how we can partner with Christ to bring the message of your love to all those we meet. I pray you show us how to light the ember in other's hearts so that it will become a flame. I pray all of this in accordance with your will and in Jesus's holy name, Amen!Thank you so much for joining me on this journey to walk boldly with Jesus. I look forward to meeting you here again on Monday. Remember, Jesus loves you just as you are, and so do I! Have a blessed weekend!Today's Word from the Lord was received in May 2024 by a member of my Catholic Charismatic Prayer Group. If you have any questions about the prayer group, these words, or how to join us for a meeting, please email CatholicCharismaticPrayerGroup@gmail.com. Today's Word from the Lord is, “My children, I have given you everything. I have given you my father. I've given you my death and resurrection and my teachings. I've given you my spirit. I've given you my mother. I've given you the communion of saints. I've given you my church. I have given you everything. You have everything.

In this episode, Chetna talks about: Some of Chetna's recent longings The pain and ache of longing, and the inevitability of it as humans The distinction between the content of our longings and Longing itself The human tendency to chase after the longings, as symbolized by hungry ghosts  The clarity, awe, love and truth that comes with being with longing, especially in community How contemporary and ancient mystics, from Rumi and Hafiz to John O'Donohue and Michael Mead have recognized the power and portals of longing How our heart's longing can lift our chins up to our north stars, our purpose and highest values The interconnection between longing, desire and needs, values The shame that comes up with honoring our longing amidst the oppressive systems we live in The invitation be with our longing, to look beneath the content of our longings, and let it inform and illuminate the way, and to do so in community How now is the urgent time to be in alignment with our values and purpose. To center our heart wisdom and guiding principles amidst all the darkness and suffering in the world.

Being accessible in her self-expression through empathy, shared leadership, warmth, and awareness of others through eye contact, thoughtful conversations, meaningful engagements with presence “Bad habits” being a way to cope or get a deep need met; i.e. smoking tied to easing the mother wound, for nourishment, sustenance, and connection which feels more accessible than connecting with people.  “Bad habits” coming from a deeper need for care, but in a way that aren't beneficial for us or others Music as an audio timestamp of emotion, amplifying sincerity in music-making Some of Kiran's “bad habits” like eating badly, drinking too much, etc. Her desire to meet the root cause without the distractions by eliminating alcohol, being plant-based, and meditating Understanding the depth of the pain as a way to amplify the joy Emotions as currency that we can create from, feed ourselves from, etc. The self-respect of restraint (like bumper lanes on a bowling alley), boundaries, and what you do when no one is around Her work as healing; finding her way into healing by doing her work of service and purpose Her attraction to people who are strong in their feminine, a divine mother queen despite gender, and learning this from gay men and trans women Her going on tour doing a strong feminine show that is her dream show that she's always wanted to watch  Find: Kiran's website including her upcoming tour schedule: madamegandhi.com Madame Gandhi on IG @madamegandhi Chetna on IG @mosaiceye and the podcast @creationforliberation  The podcast to watch on youtube Other offerings: Upcoming Events: Clarifying your North Star Workshop on 11/11 (mosaiceyeunfolding.com/communityevents) You Are Chosen: a free 5-day practice in choosing yourself and being divinely chosen (https://chetnamehta.myflodesk.com/chosen) Work 1:1 with Chetna for self-trust, creative reclamation and divine aligning (chetnamehta.co/sessions)

NOTES: You are coming to Christ, who is the living cornerstone of God's temple. He was rejected by people, but he was chosen by God for great honor. And you are living stones that God is building into his spiritual temple[. What's more, you are his holy priests. Through the mediation of Jesus Christ, you offer spiritual sacrifices that please God. As the Scriptures say, “I am placing a cornerstone in Jerusalem, chosen for great honor, and anyone who trusts in him will never be disgraced.” Yes, you who trust him recognize the honor God has given him. But for those who reject him, “The stone that the builders rejected has now become the cornerstone.” And, “He is the stone that makes people stumble, the rock that makes them fall.” They stumble because they do not obey God's word, and so they meet the fate that was planned for them. But you are not like that, for you are a chosen people. You are royal priests, a holy nation, God's very own possession. As a result, you can show others the goodness of God, for he called you out of the darkness into his wonderful light. “Once you had no identity as a people; now you are God's people. Once you received no mercy; now you have received God's mercy.” 1 Peter 2:4–10 (NLT). FOUR IDENTITY STATEMENTS: STATEMENT #1: YOU ARE STRONG. STATEMENT #2: YOU ARE HOLY STATEMENT #3: YOU ARE CHOSEN STATEMENT #4: YOU ARE INCLUDED BOTTOM LINE: When you DECLARE Jesus as Lord, he'll make a DECLARATION about you.

Pastor Scott Sharpes: "You Are Chosen, I Know Your Name"

Do you know that you're chosen? You are chosen to be God's very own! And today I want to remind you about that... sometimes life throws us curveballs that cause us to forget who we are.. and while that may be okay for the moment, those are the times that the enemy pounces in attempts to make us feel even worse. This is why we have to remember God's truth and remember what He says about us. YOU ARE CHOSEN! Be sure to subscribe & share with someone if this blesses you.

"You Are Chosen". Hear Stacy's testimony of adoption and the realization that God has chosen each of us as His sons and daughters.

Pastor Bobby gives the message "Hey You! You Are Chosen" at Shepherd's Grove Presbyterian Church on Sunday January 16, 2022. There are times where we feel like we aren't seen or chosen, but the truth is that God has chosen and adopted us. He is choosing soldiers, and even when we are going difficult times, He still calls us to do something great.

SERIES INTRODUCTION The chameleon is the master of disguise. No matter what environment you place the reptile in, it will change its color to disguise itself to blend or fit in. One of the fundamental aspects of being a Christian is that we are supposed to be easily identifiable when placed against the backdrop of the world. But many of us are like the chameleon. We blend in and conform than standing out in the crowd. YOU ARE CHOSEN Today, we are continuing our mini-series, “Who Are You,” which is all about knowing your identity and transitioning to standing out for Christ, rather than fitting in and conforming to society. We discussed the difference between conforming to the world around us and being transformed as God defines it in the last episode. Once we choose to be transformed by God, we allow God to use us for His purposes. Within the passage of 1st Peter chapter 2, verses 9 through 12. I believe there are three things in particular that Peter is trying to do: 1) Remind Us 2) Challenge Us 3) Strengthen Us If we can receive each of these things for ourselves today, we will understand the significance of God choosing to use us. We will be spurred to achieve more extraordinary things in our walk with Christ than ever before. CONCLUSION Peter makes it clear: God does not simply choose us strictly for our benefit, but ultimately to benefit others around us. Maybe we have been keeping the seed of salvation all to ourselves. Perhaps it's time to expand our comfort zones a bit and share the good news of redemption with others. The truth is, there are people in your daily life, maybe even in your inner circle, that do not know there is a God who loves them and would choose to use them for a higher purpose than anything this world could offer them. They are watching you as you walk the path of faith. They are observing your responses and your reactions to suffering, adversities, joy, peace, patience, and kindness. Let your life preach such a powerful message that those close to you have no other option but to praise God in heaven. Who comes to mind when you think of those close to you? Who do you think might need to hear the good news of Christ? What can you do right now, in word or deed, to proclaim the good news to those around you? As you consider this challenge, remember; You are chosen and redeemed. You are an ambassador of Christ, a messenger of the most fantastic news the cosmos has ever known. And the same God who raised Christ from the dead will raise you in your time of need. He will never leave you nor forsake you.

We must keep our eyes on Jesus and focus on Him, no matter what is going on around us. He's asking for a movement, and it begins with us moving towards Him. He wants us to know Him and His ways. In His presence, His love manifests, and causes us to fall in love with Him more. We will no longer perform to earn His approval; we will know we are accepted and loved unconditionally. When everything we do flows from this place of intimacy, then we will have a lasting impact in this world. We cannot change the darkness in this world until we are immersed in His light, and He then shines through us. God is looking for those who will move with Him and allow Him to work through us.

The body of Christ is not living in Heaven's freedom. We are still trying to live under the Law in so many ways, yet we call it “grace”. Many don't have the confidence to step out in faith to be used by God if we aren't living up to some standard that we have in our religious mindsets. The truth is, you had God's approval when He sent His Son to die for you. The assurance of His love brings Heaven's freedom. It is not something that can be earned. That foundation will enable you to step out in obedience to do whatever He calls you to do, with boldness and assurance that He is with you and in you, and you are loved and forgiven and equipped by His Spirit and His love.

God's heart was always to have a people who would show forth His authority with HIS LOVE and power. To do that we must have our heart prepared by the Spirit to operate in that authority with a humble dependency upon Him. God's first assignment to mankind was to subdue and take dominion. He is calling upon His Church to rise with the understanding and boldness to walk in His authority on the earth!

We are vessels in God's Kingdom, for God's use. Using the illustration of a sink, with its valves and faucet, Herbert brings out how we can control what flows in us and what flows out of us. If we are to have dominion in the Kingdom, this is where it begins. When we are able to control what is allowed to have input in our lives, we will be better equipped to walk in dominion and authority God has give us, in every situation, as true sons and daughters of God.

Jesus said to His disciples, “Arise, let us go from here.” The Spirit is saying this to the Church today. It is time for the Church to arise and move forward into the authority that He has given us, with resurrection power that Holy Spirit has imparted into us. That is how the Church will bring the shift that is needed in our culture. It is time to partner with God in bringing Heaven to earth!

Why do we celebrate the Fourth of July? For our freedom, of course, but there is more. The United States was a dream in God's heart where He would plant His flag to bring forth a sheep nation that would touchand change the nations of the world. The enemy has tried to distort and steal the original intentions and purpose that God has for our nation. We need to repent for our passivity and rise and declare and make decrees to remind America who she is and who she is called to be. Our nation must find its principles and stand for them again.

The Godhead had a plan from the very beginning to redeem and empower mankind. Pastor Dawn highlights them working together throughout history, and through the church today. When we live for the ONE, He equips us with Holy Spirit power to work in and through us with ALL the gifts He has provided!

Fathers are important! They are instrumental in the teaching of responsibility and hold an influential leadership role in the family. When fathers live with God in their hearts so that others see Him displayed through them, they attract their children and others to God, convincing them of the importance of having God at the center of their lives. A farther or a spiritual father is a necessity for the generations to keep going towards the heart of God. The bottom line is that dads matter more than we know. Their love and commitment to God make a difference in the family, at Liberty Life Center, and in the world. Thanks for being the difference! Happy Father's Day!

Throughout history, from the time of Creation to the time of Jesus, it is evident that the triune Godhead was working together to accomplish their plan of redemption for man. We have been reconciled to the Father through Jesus' sacrifice and by believing and following Him. And we are to go about doing good as we are anointed with the Holy Spirit and with power to win over the oppression of the enemy. If the triune God lives inside of us, we are limitless!

In honoring this year's graduates, Pastor Dawn reminds us all that God has called and chosen each one, and He is releasing love into this corrupt world through us. And because of His presence, we are the ones that are holding back the darkness. We are the assigned resistance against satan's takeover. God continues to reveal that the way to go up, is to have nothing else to build upon except Him. We must go forward, but it must be done with HIS wisdom, not our usual way of doing things.

Jesus always stopped for the one - the one who was in need, the one who had faith, the one who needed deliverance, the one who needed to be redeemed. We are to do the same! We can make a difference in someone's life, if we just take the time to listen, to pray, to speak words of life. And we must remember that we are doing it for the One! The One who died for us, the One who demonstrated His love for us, the One who forgave us, the One who has commissioned us! Let's DO IT FOR THE ONE!

This team of Mother/Daughter & Son share their testimony and experience of how their lives were impacted by their mother/grandmother, Pastor Dawn, and how we are all called to honor God, love people and make disciples. Mothers, through their sacrifice, impart compassion, faith, security, servanthood, and many more traits that all come from God ultimately. Motherhood (of any kind) is the greatest contribution to the Kingdom of God, and one of the richest blessings of life for all generations.

Pastor Quinn continues us in our series, "Everyday Faith" unpacking the call of David and the reality that we are chosen.

We need to remember that the glory that is coming is inside us already! God has chosen us to carry His glory. When we are convinced that we are loved, that we are chosen by God, we can change the world!

Speaker: Nathan JohnsonSeries: Ephesians Bible StudyStudy: 7 – You Are Chosen! (Ephesians 1:4) We can easily think of being chosen as the last pick in a game for kids – we line up against the wall, hoping that we won't be the last pick. But Paul tells us that God has chosen us for Himself even before the foundation of the world. In other words, you were not his last pick, but rather the thought upon His mind, even before He spoke: "let there be light." This choosing is both personal and with a divine purpose – to become like the One who chose us. In this expositional study of Ephesians, Nathan Johnson investigates Ephesians 1:4 and the implications of being chosen by God.

Episode 3: "You Are Chosen" featuring Brother Elisha

Rejection is Gods protection - know today and everyday You Are Chosen!

Pastor Brent looks at how our desire for acceptance can be met when we understand that we are chosen by God. The third message in the You Are series. The post You Are Chosen appeared first on Ashworth Church - West Des Moines.

Do you ever wonder if your life is making a difference? Do you ever wonder if you bring value to the world? Maybe you know you bring value and make a difference, but you continually try to prove yourself to others. There is rest and assurance when we grasp the truth that God will make a difference in the world through us and be the power within us to accomplish this task. Pastor Daniel encourages us that now is the time to step out in faith and believe God does great work through his people. You are not normal; you are chosen by God for excellence.
