Just as [God] chose us in [Christ] before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love. – Ephesians 1:4

INSIGHT | David Jeremiah Daily Devotional Thursday 1 August 2024 |

Recommended Reading: 2 Thessalonians 2:13-14

When we make choices in life, whether large or small, we have our reasons. And we are not always obliged to share those reasons with others. The same is true with God. He makes choices for reasons often known only to Himself (Deuteronomy 29:29).

Israel began with God’s choice of one man—Abram of Ur—for reasons unknown to us. And because of His love for Abraham, He chose his descendants (Deuteronomy 4:37). But God made it clear that His choice of them was based on His love alone (Deuteronomy 7:7), which resulted in blessedness for the chosen (Psalm 65:4). The apostle Paul continues this theme in Ephesians 1:3-4 where he tells Christians they have been chosen “in love” before the world was created. The focus with our choosing, as it was with Israel, is the kind of people we are to be—how to reflect God’s loving choice in the world: “holy and without blame.”

If you are in Christ today, it is because you were chosen in Him. Give humble praise to God for His choice.

We are not chosen because we are good; we are chosen that we may be good. – Benjamin B. Warfield

Read-Thru-the-Bible: Isaiah 60 – 63
