 God Calls
 “Vocation” – Latin… “vocal”
vocātiōn- (s. of vocātiō) a call,
summons
 Ro 8:28 And we know that in all things God
works for the good of those who love him,
who have been called according to his
purpose.
 1Co 1:9 God, who has called you into
fellowship with his Son Jesus Christ our Lord,
is faithful.
 2Ti 1:9 who has saved us and called us to a
holy life – not because of anything we have
done but because of his own purpose and
grace. This grace was given us in Christ
God’s call is the most important call of your life.
He is always eager to talk to you about your life
and about your future.
“Therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony
of our Lord or of me His prisoner, but join with
me in suffering for the gospel according to the
power of God, who has saved us and called us
with a holy calling, not according to our works,
but according to His own purpose and grace.”
2 Timothy 1:9
Call is God’s invitation.
Call is different for everyone.
What you are called “to” is different from everyone.
God calls people at every stages & times of their lives.
God is simply not calling the masses of humanity today.

But He is calling a select few!
