WHO ARE GOD’S CHOICES
by CEO_Prophetess NardraV
Jesus Christ, after His ascension, as a victorious conqueror who "led captivity captive," distributes (gave), spiritual gifts: specific leadership roles—apostles, prophets, evangelists, and pastors and teachers—as gifts to the church, to equip believers, enable them for ministry, and build up the body of Christ, ultimately leading to spiritual maturity and unity. These gifted individuals serve as foundational leaders and messengers, spreading the word of God and guiding believers to a deeper understanding of Christ. (Ephesians 4:11)
Opposing God’s chosen people won't change His plan or mind.
He chose them deliberately, regardless of whether anyone else accepted or acknowledged them. They were predestined by Him and not randomly or haphazardly selected. Jesus Christ Himself experienced rejection by His peers, was mistreated and abused, and was ultimately crucified by the very people who claimed to be searching for their promised Messiah!
Lets take a look at this story: In the Hebrew Bible, Baal is presented as a false god and a rival to the worship of Yahweh (the God of Israel), as seen in the confrontation on Mount Carmel led by the prophet Elijah. In 1Kings 18, the Prophets of Baal worshipped and served the Canaanite deity Baal, a god of fertility and weather. Their worship of Baal stood in opposition to the worship of Yahweh, the God of Israel, and represented widespread idolatry.
The Showdown: These 450 prophets were challenged by Elijah on Mount Carmel to a spiritual contest to determine which ‘god’ was real. After a day of fruitless efforts and self-mutilation by the Baal prophets, Elijah's single, obedient prayer to Yahweh was answered with fire from heaven, consuming his sacrifice. Lets also conclude that there are several women, in that day, also identified as prophets: Sarah, Miriam, Deborah, Hannah, Abigail, Huldah, and Esther. Remember Huldah? We remember her when she gave advice to King Josiah (2 Kings 22–23; see also 2 Chron 34).
This single piece of advice was extremely important; as it guided Josiah to undertake and carry out to the full exten, with great attention to detail—religion reforms in Judah, that characterized his reign.
“Josiah took away all the abominations from all the territory that belonged to the people of Israel, and made all who were in Israel worship the Lord their God.
All his days they did not turn away from following the Lord the God of their ancestors” (2 Chron 24:33).
Huldah was filled with the same Spirit of boldness that filled Peter when he proclaimed the word of God to the leaders of Israel, proclaiming the need to obey God.
And still there’s more…that are called and anointed by GOD…
The people recognized the true God, and Elijah had the prophets of Baal slaughtered in the valley below.
If you name the name of Christ, Don’t be so busy looking for what’s wrong that you miss what’s right! There is only one. (1) King—and His name is Jesus!
Sovereign God | Sovereign King | …we trust in you and your choices and we will submit to your way and your will!
Compare The two Contrasting Spiritual Paths of those calling themselves Prophets/Prophetess
The zealous, but ultimately futile efforts of 450 of prophets serving the false god Baal, verses God’s singular, faithful chosen Prophet (Elijah), the his faith and obedience, who stood alone for the true and “living” God. That right there should speak to all of our future choices! Especially if you are purposed in the marketplace to spotlight “Truth!”
The People's Choice…or God’s🤔💭
Who’s your choice today? Who will you stand with and support in this journey? Will you align yourself with God’s chosen, or will you follow the world’s chosen? The question remains—how will you respond to GOD’S CHOICES in your life and business? Your decision will shape your future, purpose, and impact.
Psalm 105:15 and 1 Chronicles 16:22
“Touch not my anointing and do my” prophetess—No Harm!”
The act of anointing traditionally symbolized being divinely chosen and set apart by God for a unique and specific purpose or role! It serves not only as a mark of distinction but also as a profound divine warning, emphasizing that God actively protects those He has chosen and anointed for their particular mission. Harming, slandering, or opposing such individuals is considered an offense against God Himself, and those who do so risk facing serious and potentially severe consequences for their actions.
The original context was God rebuking Kings who were threatening to harm His chosen one’s, who carried the true message of what the church was supposed to be about! This verse is oftentimes used by many man-ordained individuals, against any criticism or any attempt to correct false teachings… from them or their pulpits; whose attempts were to give leaders immunity from accountability.
No one is immune from accountability to the word of God and His decrees!! We are to speak only the word He has given, and to walk in obedience to the word given, that is rightly divided and backed up with the scriptures! It is not a blanket shield for all lazy and carnal spiritual leaders today!
