Share In The Sufferings

 

We’ve been saved and called
with a holy calling

by His own purpose
and grace

to share in the sufferings
for the gospel

bringing forth His power
and praise.

**********

I can suffer for the gospel according to Your power, for You are with me.

***********

“Therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me His prisoner, but share with me in the sufferings for the gospel according to the power of God,”

“who has saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace which was given to us in Christ Jesus before time began . . .”

2 Timothy 1:8,9. NKJV

Called

 

When you
were about to perish

I called for you
to come

out of the land
of destruction

into the light
of the Son.

Jesus establishes Himself as my call.

“So it shall be in that day that the great trumpet will be blown; they will come who are about to perish in the land of Assyria, and they who are outcasts in the land of Egypt, and shall worship the LORD in the holy mount at Jerusalem.” Isaiah 27:13 NKJV

My Called

 

War will be made
against Me

but I will
overcome

and those with Me
are My called

My faithful
chosen ones.

Jesus establishes my faithfulness.

“These will make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb will overcome them, for He is Lord of lords and King of kings, and those who are with Him are called, chosen, and faithful. “. Revelation 17:14 NKJV

Preserved

 

You are called
sanctified
preserved
in Me

kept in
My love
and eternal
mercy.

A laid down life is kept from stumbling out of His reach.

“To those who are called, sanctified by God the Father, and preserved in Jesus Christ: mercy, peace and love be multiplied to you. . . .keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our LORD Jesus Christ unto eternal life. Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling and to present you faultless before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy , to God our Savior who alone is wise, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and forever, amen.” Jude 1,2,21,24 NJKV
