GOD WORKS EFFECTIVELY IN YOUR CALLING

For He who worked effectively in Peter for the apostleship to the circumcised also worked effectively in me toward the Gentiles.

Galatians 2:8

Peter was called to preach the gospel to the circumcised Jews while Paul was called to preach to the uncircumcised Gentiles. However, God worked effectively in both of them. God works effectively in what He has called you to do. If you want to be great, do what God has called you to do.

There is nothing on this earth you can do better than your calling. In your calling, you can display the highest form of character and excellence. You can be the best that God created you to be in your calling and not in your job.

God has anointed you for your calling and not my calling or somebody else’s for that matter. There is a calling on your life. When you are born again, you have to discover your calling.

What does God want you to do? What is God pulling you to? God can reveal that to you. He can show you things that He wants you to do. God can reveal your calling to you.

Start by serving others and trying out things, soon enough you will know where your strengths and passions are. You will discover your gifts and passions while you serve others.

There are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. There are different ministries, but the same Lord. And there are diversities of activities, but the same God who works all in all.

1 Corinthians 12:4-6

Make spending time with God your priority. The closer you get to God the more you will discover what He wants you to do. God won’t give you instructions from a distance. You need to get close to Him and the Holy Spirit will reveal to you the mind of God and things to come.

But as it is written: “Eye has not seen, nor ear hear, nor have entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for those who love Him.” But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God.

1 Corinthians 2:9-10

Thought of the day: God works effectively in my calling!

Prayer: Heavenly Father, thank You for calling me to be saved and thank You for calling me to my purpose, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

STRENGTHEN YOURSELF IN THE LORD

Now David was greatly distressed, for the people spoke of stoning him, because the soul of the people was grieved, every man for his sons and his daughters. But David strengthened himself in the LORD his God. 1 Samuel 30:6 Things could be going wrong all around you, challenges everywhere, and negative thoughts attacking your mind even to a point of depression. Instead of feeling sorry for yourself and wallowing up in depression, stand up and strengthen yourself in the Lord. We live in the world that has challenges, Jesus said that in the world you will have tribulations, but cheer up because Jesus has overcome the world. Strengthen yourself in the Lord and be strong in the Lord and the power of His might. Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Ephesians 6:10 When you are weak you cannot overcome challenges you face in life. When you are weak you cannot have the victory and take possession your inheritance. You have to be strong. Strong

WAGE WAR WITH PROPHECY

This charge I commit to you, son Timothy, according to the prophecies previously made concerning you, that by them you may wage the good warfare. 1 Timothy 1:18 If you have a prophecy spoken over your life it is time for warfare. It is time to wage war with your prophecy. Take the prophecy spoken over you and put it in your mouth. Speak the same prophecy over your life. Agree with God. Can two walk together, unless they are agreed? Amos 3:3 Speak the same things with God. That is faith, faith speaks the same things with God and we overcome by our faith. Faith will put you over and it will make you an overcomer. Use your faith to wage war. And whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that overcomes the world – our faith. 1 John 5:4 Put up a good fight and fight the good fight of faith. You have to fight in order to win. Wage war with prophecy. If there is no prophecy spoken over you, there is nothing to it. Use the Word and speak the Word over

GOD REWARDS RIGHTEOUS LIVING

The LORD rewarded me according to my righteousness; according to cleanness of my hands He has recompensed me. 2 Samuel 22:21 Righteousness according to the Old Testament is righteous living. However, in the New Testament we have received the righteousness which is by faith in Jesus Christ. When David in the Old Testament said that the LORD rewarded him according to his righteousness, he is essentially saying that the LORD rewarded him for his righteous living. Say to the righteous that it shall be well with them, for they shall eat the fruit of their doings. Isaiah 3:10 The above Scripture would then mean: “Say to those who live righteously that it shall be well with them, for they shall eat the fruit of their doings.” God rewards righteous living. It doesn’t matter where you find yourself right now, if you would continue living righteously, living according to God’s Word sooner than later your life would begin to change. You can turn things around as you live righteously.
