Commentary from Pastor Michael White:
“…and those who are with Him are called, chosen, and faithful.” – Rev 17:14
You are called, chosen, and faithful. You are who God says you are!
The path to change is not to try and avoid certain characteristics; it is to adopt them and grow into them. Constructive change happens when we let God’s word sink into our lives: when we believe what His word declares about us, even when we don’t see it with our eyes. You are called, chosen, and faithful – not because you feel it or because you deserve it; but because God says you are!
I spoke with a woman after service last night who was having trouble managing her finances. The prescription was not to tell her, “Spend less, and save more.” The solution was to follow the voice of the Holy Spirit and declare over her, “God says you are a good steward.” As we declare God’s word over us, change happens. She can now grow into God’s declaration that she is a wise, responsible money manager.
You are who He says you are!
Prayer:
Father, thank You for the power in Your word. I declare that I am who You say I am! I will not believe anything else, and I refuse to settle for anything less, in Jesus’ name!
