Colossians 1:11-12
being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience, and giving joyful thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of his holy people in the kingdom of light.
I heard someone say that God doesn't qualify you. It sounds good but the truth of the matter is it is not Bible. When I heard this I felt some kind of way because my whole testimony and faith walk was lessened.
I asked God to show me in his word that he does give me the qualities that I need to be his servant and lead his people. Then I waited.
I waited for God to answer me. I waited to feel release against the attack in my mind about how I was telling others that no matter what you have done in your past it does not disqualify you from being used by God to further his kingdom. I waited for God to speak.
Today as I read these scriptures, tears rolled down my face as I saw in his word that he (God) does QUALIFY you. This qualify is different than his justification. It is different from his santifaction. He qualifies you because we need to know that he requires us to go beyond our self works. He requires us to operate in faith believing that even though we are not qualified to do it, we will be able to do it through and in Him
Oh how sweet it is to know that he is willing to use unusable vessels to accomplish his work. Don't don't count me out. I have been qualified by the Father to get the job done and to hear him say well done thy GOOD and FAITHFUL servant.
You are Bound No More.
