“For you see your calling, brethren, that not many wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called. But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to put to shame the things which are mighty; and the base things of the world and the things which are despised God has chosen, and the things which are not, to bring to nothing the things that are, that no flesh should glory in His presence.”1 Corinthians 1:26-29.
If He was a man of the world-
Jesus would have chosen the elite of His day to accomplish His mission.
However He used simple fishermen.

These men were considered uneducated, lacking “social status”, wealth or worldly distinction of any kind.
Yet these “simple” men were the ones the Lord selected to build the Kingdom of God.

When the children of Israel were slaves in Egypt-
God didn’t send an army to deliver them,
He sent a single man.

But a single man of God was shown to be greater than the most powerful kingdom on Earth.

Throughout the Bible-
– we read of the Lord choosing and using the weak things of the world to confound and shame the wise and powerful.

God seems to love revealing His awesome power through humble vessels, so that no flesh can glory in His presence.

Don’t allow the enemy to convince you that God cannot use you because you are “flawed”, weak, or seemingly inconsequential.

No!
Instead, remember that He uses the base, despised, nonentities of this world, ordinary, often broken, people…to do extraordinary things.

Our God is not looking at your wealth, your social status or your education.
He’s looking at your heart!

If your heart is willing and your life is available-
– then He is more than able to perform miraculous work through you for His Kingdom’s sake.

With so much work to be done-
– don’t allow the enemy to stifle or steal the Lord’s vision for your life.

He has a plan to use you– to confound the wise of this world,
– and to bring to naught the things that are!
