God Uses The Weak and Imperfect

The Bible is a Book about a great God who chooses to work with weak and imperfect people to fulfil His plans. It was so in the Prophetic Scripture, and same in the New Testament.

The pattern has continued today, as God uses the base, the weak, not those with eloquent speech or knowledge, but those who will submit to His will--1 Corinthians 1:27.

Often, they are flawed and unskilled by human standards for the job. Most started from having nothing to offer, but by humbly acknowledging their imperfections and their need of God were filled with God's Spirit to accomplish the task.

And because God is perfect, with a mission to save humanity, made us right through the redeeming power of the blood of Jesus that makes imperfect people perfect. We are made perfect, or right with God because Jesus replaces our weak and imperfect nature with His Life that gives new life [John 3:3, Psalm 71:7]. In Him we are regenerated to become one with Him.

Unlike the false images people portray, God never called any that the world could point to as having no sin or perfect, as no worldly education can remove sin, but He perfects us through the renewing of our minds by the washing with water and the blood--Romans 12:2.

Abraham, the father of faith, made mistakes, David walked his way through mistakes which his children inherited, but God kept His promises because He is the faithful God.

In the New Testament many broken people, such as apostles Peter and Paul, were used. But with time, God transformed them for service in His harvest field. Besides spending time or meeting Jesus, none went to a place where they were indoctrinated by human philosophy , as they often promote the agenda of the world.

What makes our journey with God interesting is the way, despite our weaknesses and failures, brought about by sin, He turns unrighteous people to holy, living temples of God.

#Hidden sins

God hates unconfessed sins. It does not surprise God that we sin. Afterall, He created us with imperfect hearts so that we would recognise our need of Him and choose to obey without God enforcing His will on us. It was the reason Jesus said, those who love Him will obey His commands--John 14:15.

Jeremiah 17:9, also reminds us that the heart of man is desperately wicked.

Many hide behind false images they struggle to maintain risking their mental wellbeing.

#Life in Christ is Peace and Joy

We are made right with God when we place our faith in Jesus--Romans 3:22-31. Jesus was made an offering for the sins of the world, whatever our race, or continent. Sadly, Europeans were deceived by the Romans, that they were Christians by right of human birth, leaving many prideful and ignorant of the truth. Most communities are still lost because of similar lies of a believe in regional gods.

In the Old Testament times, offering of the blood of animals was offered to make people right with God. But two thousand years ago, God offered Himself in the form of Jesus to take away our sins, right every wrong that was recorded against us. By becoming human, it became possible for Him to die. And because He was God raised Himself back to life--Resurrected.

But only in faith do we access the gift of forgiveness of sin. Faith means to believe that Jesus paid a price for our souls.

No other requirement expected but a believe in the Sacrifice that takes away sins, JESUS--Romans 10:10.
