Called by God, 18

  ~ The Career Call With No Regret ~

 

Series Note  ~  In the first post in this series, we considered the Universal Call to all mankind.  Then we addressed those who accepted that call.  In posts 2-5 we looked at the new responsibilities to accept the Obedience Call.  In posts 6-12 we examined some new roles of those who accepted that initial call.  In posts 13-17 we considered a sampling of specific career calls.  In posts 18-20 are listed responsibilities of those who are called. 

 

Scripture  ~  “For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance” (Romans 11:29 KJV).

 

The Amplified Bible says it this way, “For God's gifts and His call are irrevocable.”

 

God never withdraws them when once they are given, and He does not change His mind about those to whom He gives His grace or to whom He sends His call. 

 

Comment  ~  What do you have which was not given to you?  There is no room for pride or feelings of superiority.  What do you lack which is not within the sovereign will of God?  There is no room for feelings of inferiority.

 

A correct understanding of natural abilities, spiritual gifts, your specific calling, and the grace of God takes away any and all feelings of either inferiority or superiority.  What do you possess which is not a gift from God?
