Some Christians believe that there are certain people who God specially favours and blesses; they believe there are selected few who are mightily used and blessed of God. That’s a very wrong notion; there are no selected few amongst us. God has chosen us all to be great and desires to use each one of us mightily in our own unique way to fulfill His purpose in the earth.
God has planted in everyone of His children the seed of greatness. He called the Israelites His children, and He said to Moses, “Go and bring My children out of Egypt.” If only they had recognized the fatherhood of God, they would have thought, acted and walked differently than they did when they rebelled against God.
God’s chosen race today is not Israel, it’s the Church of Jesus Christ, and we need to recognize the fatherhood of God in order for us to enjoy the fulness of His blessings in our lives. We are the people who have been called to greatness, and this greatness is in our spirits. Unlike Israel, whose greatness was conditioned upon their obedience of the Law of Moses, we were born great; the new creations in Christ was born into greatness, Hallelujah! Now we don’t need to strive to keep any of those Laws anymore since they have been abolished (Ephesians 2:15), and we don’t need to try to be obedient to God, for we’re already called obedient children (1 Peter 1:14). It’s our nature to walk in the greatness that God has called us to.
