Joshua 4:1-3 Chosen

 1So it was when all the nation had finished crossing the Jordan, the LORD said to Joshua, 2“Take for yourselves the twelve men [chosen] from among the people, one man from each tribe, 3and command them, ‘Pick up for yourselves twelve stones [one each] from here out of the midst of the Jordan, from the place where the priests’ feet are standing firm; carry them over with you and lay them down at the place where you will spend the night tonight.’”

Chosen

Twelve men were chosen from the tribes and likewise you were chosen by God!

1 Peter 2: 9But you are A CHOSEN RACE, A royal PRIESTHOOD, A CONSECRATED NATION, A [special] PEOPLE FOR God’s OWN POSSESSION, so that you may proclaim the excellencies [the wonderful deeds and virtues and perfections] of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.

The twelve men were chosen to carry stones to set up a monument for the Lord so the future generations of Israelites wouldn’t forget what the Lord has done for them.

If you are truly Christ’s you were chosen also for a purpose! It begins in your home with your spouse, children and grandchildren! Have you taught them about Jesus and what He has done for you?

Remember He called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.

It now falls on you to shine that marvelous light 💡 on others so that they know you are His!
