Have you ever thought about your calling?
What is your purpose in life as a Christian?
This Sunday, Sister Asther spoke about discovering our purpose through Christ, focusing on Colossians 3:17, "And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him."
But how do we actually know and fulfill God's plan for our lives?
1. Pray and ask God for direction.
Proverbs 3:5–6 states, "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight."
However, obstacles can get in the way, such as fear of failure, excuses and procrastination, people's opinions, and endless distractions.
These will try to pull you off course. But hearing the Message keeps your eyes on Christ who leads you.
2. Pay attention to your gifts and passions.
You already have natural talents, desires, and abilities placed inside you.
Pay attention to them.
When you notice what comes naturally to you, what stirs your heart and aligns with God's Word, you're likely looking at hints to your purpose.
When you align with God's purpose, your life transforms.
· You receive peace and fulfillment, a deep sense that you're exactly where you're meant to be.
· You experience divine favor. Doors open, connections form, and provision follows.
· You make a Kingdom impact. Your life touches others in ways you may never fully see.
· You store up eternal reward, never for boasting, but for the joy of having lived for what truly matters.
So, remember, you are fully equipped. You are chosen. You are called for a specific purpose.
"Delight yourself unto the Lord and he will give you the desires of your heart" (Psalm 37:4).
When you align your heart with His, your purpose becomes not a mystery to solve, but a life to live in the Lord's name.
