READ: 1 Samuel 16:1-13

…There remaineth yet the youngest, and, behold, he keepeth the sheep. And Samuel said unto Jesse,
Send and fetch him: for we will not sit down till he come hither.” – 1 Samuel 16:11

God calls people who are the least in their families. This is the usual pattern. God calls the youngest, the oddest and the rejects. Rejection has a way of making you humble. It is this humility that opens your heart to the call of God. Do not be surprised when you see the “unacceptable” person being raised up to the high office of ministry. I remember watching an evangelist who told his father that God had told him that he would one day be an evangelist in Africa. His father was a pastor of a church. Unfortunately, his father told him, “You will not be my successor.” Then he pointed to his oldest son and said, “He will be my successor in the ministry.”

This great evangelist was rejected in his own house and had a nickname “zero.” The nickname, “zero” stood for a man who was unintelligent and unable to do well in school. Because he was not good in mathematics he was called a “zero.”

However, in spite of his father’s rejection, he did become a great evangelist in Africa. Can you believe that the first son, who was chosen by his father was not even saved at the time he was giving this testimony? Don’t be worried if you are the youngest person in your family. Do not be worried if you are the least in your group. God’s call will override all your natural limitations.
