[The Glory Unveiled]
If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master’s use, and prepared unto every good work. [ 2 Timothy 2:21 NIV ]
God does not discriminate against His children. He created us all, and He loves each of us without exception. If there is any sense of discrimination we experience, it is not from God—it is from ourselves. It is our identity that places us into different categories. God does not use anyone who does not bear His identity. This is where it would seem heaven discriminates. God uses those who purge themselves of anything that prevents them from becoming vessels of honour—sanctified, set apart, and fit for the Master’s use. In that sense, the difference between people is not favoritism; it is preparation and positioning. We therefore hold the power of choice. We decide whether our lives will be usable in the hands of God or not. God will use anyone who positions themselves to become a channel of His life. When we accept the identity of His Son and deliberately let go of our old identity, we make ourselves available for divine use. As we rid ourselves of what is not of God, we begin to look like God. And when we look like Him, we reflect Him. At that point, God does not need to announce that we are His—our lives will testify for us. People will recognize His nation because His nature is visible in us. Our responsibility, therefore, is to intentionally work on ourselves, to align our lives with His nature, so that it never appears as though God is discriminating against us. The truth is simple: God is always willing to use us, but He will only use what looks like Him.
