Description

Scripture Focus: 2 Timothy 1:9 (NLT)
“For God saved us and called us to live a holy life. He did this, not because we deserved it, but because that was His plan from before the beginning of time—to show us His grace through Christ Jesus.”

 Episode Overview:
You were never an accident. God didn’t just save you to keep you safe—He saved you to position you for purpose. In this episode, we unpack the powerful truth that your identity in Christ isn’t random—it’s intentional. Before time began, God had a specific plan for your life. Your calling is holy, your life is on purpose, and your future is in His hands.

Main Points + Listener Notes:

1. You Were Chosen On Purpose

Jeremiah 1:5 – “Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you.”

• God picked you with full knowledge of your flaws and fears.
• You are not a mistake—you are royalty with a reason.
• Instead of comparison, focus on preparation.

Youth Thought:
Stop comparing yourself. Start preparing yourself.

2. You’re Not Just Saved From Something—You’re Saved For Something

Ephesians 2:10 – “For we are God’s masterpiece...created to do good works He planned long ago.”

• God rescued you not just to escape sin, but to embrace a mission.
• Your story, voice, and gifts all fit into His bigger plan.
• You are here not just to survive, but to transform lives.

Youth Challenge:
Ask God, “What am I here to build—not just escape?”

3. Find God’s Mission Before You Chase Your Own Ambition

Matthew 6:33 – “Seek first the Kingdom of God…and all these things will be added to you.”

• Don’t chase success without first seeking significance.
• True greatness isn’t about being known—it’s about being used by God.
• When your goals align with God’s mission, peace and purpose will follow.

Youth Decision:
Don’t just chase dreams—chase God. Watch your real dream unfold.

Case Study: Jeremiah – A Life Called By God
Jeremiah 1:4-7 (NLT)

• Jeremiah didn’t feel qualified—too young, too unsure.
• God’s call silenced his excuses.
• He wasn’t chosen for comfort but for calling—his voice spoke truth to kings and nations.
• Jeremiah didn’t chase fame—he fulfilled faithfulness. And that’s what God calls greatness.

 Youth Reflection Point:
You may not feel ready or know the full plan.
But like Jeremiah—God already knows who you are, what you’re made to do, and where you’re meant to go.
You were chosen. You were called. And God’s voice is louder than your doubts.

Final Takeaway:
You’re not too young to be called.
You’re not too broken to be used.
You were called with a holy calling.

Don’t just ask:

“What do I want to do with my life?”
Ask:
“God, what do You want to do through my life?”

That’s where you’ll find your place.
