Do you know the hope God placed in your calling? In this devotion from Words From The Word, Pastor Roderick Webster opens Ephesians chapter 1 verse 18 (KJV) and walks us through one of the most powerful truths a believer can grasp — that God called you not because of anything you did, but because of His own purpose and grace.

You might be asking — Why would God choose me? What does it mean to be called by God? How does my calling affect the way I live today? And what does God actually see when He looks at me?

Here are some key points from this devotion:

- God's calling is by grace alone, not based on your works or worthiness (2 Timothy 1:9, KJV)

- We have been called out of darkness into His marvelous light (1 Peter 2:9, KJV)

- The hope of your calling should motivate you toward purity, obedience, and faithfulness

- God sees your future glory, not your past failures — just as He saw valor in Gideon and a rock in Peter

- God invests in His church because He will one day receive glory through us
