Passage: Ephesians 2:4-10
What ministry has God planned for you do that will display God's grace in your life?
Now think about that for a second: in ages past, God already made a plan for you specifically to do a ministry for Him. He already set it in place. There's already the people, the path, the power, it's already set - God's just waiting for you to walk in it. That's why I'm asking you: what ministry has God called you to do in the beautiful life He gave you? Some of you, that plan is unrealized. That plan that He has for your life WAITS for your hands and heart to do. Think about the work of God, it is to save a lost and dying world. There are people that God has ordained that YOU will speak, YOU will serve, YOU will love, and they will be saved. And they're waiting for YOU.
The Bible says, it's not about us - think about how it robs God if it's about us. When we live in legalism. If I do this, I'm going to heaven. But "I" have to do it. So how did you get to heaven? It's what "I" did. Does that not destroy what grace really is? If we could earn our own way into Heaven, Why did Jesus die on the cross?!
