“But as many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on His Name; Which were born not of flesh and blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.” John 1:12-13
This is such a great Truth; we are born of God, we are born of His will. Our Father knows us, He knows our innermost thoughts, and He truly knows our hearts. We didn’t choose God, He chose us! “Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.” John 1:13 Yet all who truly believe on Him and trust in Jesus’ Name are chosen, for God would that all men be saved! Remember this Truth: the only thing that Jesus ever did to be the Christ, was to be chosen by God to be born the Christ! Jesus was born to be the Christ, and we have been born of God to be His Children through Christ! Our Father chose to have you and I, He willed us into His Kingdom! Through the power of salvation we are now members of His body, bone of His bone, and flesh of His flesh, as Ephesians 5:30 teaches we are!
The freedom of this Truth is this: if we just chose God, than we could loose Him. But we were not saved by the will of our own flesh, or by the will of another man. We were born again by the will of God Himself! Our Father chose us because He knows us, we can’t fool Him, and because He has chosen us, we are sealed by Him until the day of redemption! “And grieve not the Holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.” Ephesians 4:30
