Summary

Main message: When God interrupts your plans and calls you, that calling is a special, intentional act—you are set apart, chosen, and empowered—and you must respond with immediate, obedient faith rather than delay.

Key points:

  • The sermon centers on Galatians 1:15–17: "But when God..." — God interrupts Paul's plans to set him on a new course.
  • To be called means God set you apart (even before birth); your gifts and disposition are God‑knit for that purpose.
  • Calling is by God’s grace and includes the special revelation of Jesus and the gift of the Holy Spirit to enable the task.
  • You are a chosen instrument for a specific assignment (Paul sent to the Gentiles); it’s not something to delegate or treat casually.
  • Immediate obedience matters — Ananias’s example in Acts (laid hands on Saul/Paul) shows delaying God’s call can derail bigger purposes; don’t wait like the speaker and her friend did.

Scriptures mentioned: Galatians 1:14–17, Acts 13:2, Acts 9 (including verses about Ananias, e.g., Acts 9:12, 9:15)
