FAVOURITES?

“Jesus loves you! But I am one of his favourites.”

Maybe you have seen that sticker on the bumper of a car. I have not yet, but I have thought and even said that I am one of God’s favourites. I think I also heard once a famous guest speaker saying that he is one of God’s favourites.

"ALIVE IN CHRIST"

“ALIVE IN CHRIST”

The WarCry is The Salvation Army magazine and each issue has right at the beginning a Bible Verse in English and Maori.

In one of the latest issues the verse was Acts 10:34:

“God plays no favourites! It makes no difference, who you are or where you’re from – if you want God and are ready to do as he says, the door is open.” The Message

Acts 10:34 says very clearly that “God plays no favourites!” What now?

Maybe a better way is to say that I am a special object of God:

1. I am a special object of God’s concern.

2. I am a special object of God’s attention.

3. I am a special object of God’s purpose.

“I AM ALIVE UNTO GOD.”
