Romans 9:24 “And we are among those whom he selected, both from the Jews and from the Gentiles.” (emphasis added).

Two Things…

Romans 9:19 “Well then, you might say, “Why does God blame people for not responding? Haven’t they simply done what he makes them do?”

Divine Election

Replica

Joshua 1:8 “Let the words from the book of the law be always on your lips. Meditate on them day and night so that you may be careful to live by all that is written in it. If you do, as you make your way through this world, you will prosper and always find success.” (The Voice)

Deep & Narrow

Job 23:14 “So he will do to me whatever he has planned… He will carry out exactly what He has planned for me… He controls my destiny.” (NLT & VOICE)

Sustain It

Psalm 84:7 “They go from strength to strength [increasing in victorious power]; each of them appears before God in Zion.” (AMPC)
