Like when you are called to resume a new job but i will be delibrating about when God call someone into the ministry. _who have been chosen according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, through the sanctifying work of the Spirit, to be obedient to Jesus Christ and sprinkled with his blood: Grace and peace be yours in abundance._ **- 1 Peter 1:2.** <hr><hr> There is a qualification for every job. The qualification for the work of the ministry is based on the spiritual more than the physical. _But the Lord said to Samuel, “Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The Lord does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.”_ **- 1 Samuel 16:7** This is a story we know very well when God rejected Saul and told Samuel to go to the house of Jesse that He has found a man after His heart that will be the next king of Israel. when Samuel arrived at the house of Jesse he saw Eliab he propose in his heart that surely this is the Lord anointed. because of His appearance, his height or station. But God choose David the smallest and youngest. The Lord looketh on the inward. Therefore, i will not name what is not the qualification for the ministry. <hr><hr> <h3> Age is not a factor in the calling of God. God can decide to call a little child like Jeremiah or an old man like Moses. </h3> _The word of the Lord came to me, saying, “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.” “Alas, Sovereign Lord,” I said, “I do not know how to speak; I am too young.” But the Lord said to me, “Do not say, ‘I am too young.’ You must go to everyone I send you to and say whatever I command you. 8 Do not be afraid of them, for I am with you and will rescue you,” declares the Lord._ **- Jeremiah 1:4-8** <hr><hr> <h3>Level of literacy is not an issue in Gods calling. It is good to be educated but if you are not it is not an obstacle to God call in your life.</h3> _When they saw the courage of Peter and John and realized that they were unschooled, ordinary men, they were astonished and they took note that these men had been with Jesus._ **- Act 4:13** <hr><hr> <h3>Riches and poverty is not a criterion in the calling of God.</h3> _One day Peter and John were going up to the temple at the time of prayer at three in the afternoon. Now a man who was lame from birth was being carried to the temple gate called Beautiful, where he was put every day to beg from those going into the temple courts. When he saw Peter and John about to enter, he asked them for money. Peter looked straight at him, as did John. Then Peter said, “Look at us!” 5 So the man gave them his attention, expecting to get something from them. Then Peter said, “Silver or gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk.” 7 Taking him by the right hand, he helped him up, and instantly the man’s feet and ankles became strong._ **- Act 3:1-7** <hr><hr> Peter and John did not have silver or gold but they have something silver or gold cannot buy. They were filled with the Holy Spirit and with the power of God. That's is what makes the difference in a man's life. It transforms a man form the ordinary to the superordinary. <hr><hr> <center> <h2>GOD SAID IT!! I BELIEVE IT!!
