You may have been called, but have you received the calling?

Matthew 22:14 “For many are called, but few are chosen.”

Many have been summoned and invited to the Great Feast of the King. Many have been called to sit at His feet and to do HIS Will. Many have a special invitation. They have been called to do the work for the Kingdom of God. But sadly, many will turn their calling down.

Matthew 22:3-6 When the banquet was ready, he sent his servants to notify those who were invited. But they all refused to come!4 “So he sent other servants to tell them, ‘The feast has been prepared. The bulls and fattened cattle have been killed, and everything is ready. Come to the banquet!’ 5 But the guests he had invited ignored them and went their own way, one to his farm, another to his business. 6 Others seized his messengers and insulted them and killed them.

Many will hear but many will refuse. Many will hear but will fail their test. Many will forsake HIM. Many will go back their own way. Others will insult and kill God's messengers. Just because one has been called, it is another matter to have received the calling. In order to be wearing the wedding garment, one must have received the calling and authority to enter the feast. Just to be called is the invitation to wear the wedding clothes.

And then their are those who have been called but have yet to pass their tests to receive the calling but have decided to go without proper wedding garment and with their own authority to sneak into the feast. They go without proper covering or authority.

Matthew 22:11-13 “But when the king came in to meet the guests, he noticed a man who wasn’t wearing the proper clothes for a wedding. 12 ‘Friend,’ he asked, ‘how is it that you are here without wedding clothes?’ But the man had no reply. 13 Then the king said to his aides, ‘Bind his hands and feet and throw him into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’

Many ministries have been formed prematurely as a premature baby is born. With premature babies, there are many problems. Many are so eager but have no patience. Many have yet to die to themselves. Many have yet to pray plowing their lands properly preparing for the harvest.

Just because one has been called does not mean they have received the calling or authority to do HIS Work. All must pass their tests prior to receiving the call. All must be broken to be used as an honorable vessel. Many are called but few choose to obey. Only those who do the Father's Will will enter the Kingdom of God.

May you all fully surrender to the Great King of Kings and be chosen to do HIS Work.
