NUGGETS ON’ DIVINE’ CALLING 7
New week blessings everyone, thanks to all
those that have been tuning in to listen to my Radio Talk show” Heart to love
with Fola” and thanks to those that have
shared their testimonies of our the show has been a
blessing to them. I am deeply honored
and I give all the Glory to God for what He is doing and has started to do in
all our lives , He that began the good
work will complete it all in our lives in Jesus name. Amen .Now to the
conclusion on my series on Divine calling:
In the course of discovering
our calling, we may have to make certain decisions to accommodate our
discovery. This could be either stopping our secular job, retaining our secular
job but now with God and Godly focus in it, retiring from our secular job or
making other significant changes The Holy Spirit may direct and lead us to take
in accomplishing and fulfilling our discoveries.
The point to
note here is once our motives and our heart conditions once they are right and
pure, we would not feel any guilt for taking whatever decision we took just so
we can fulfill our calling properly. Once we are about doing God’s business for
kingdom sake, God will elevate us whether we like it or not. So whether it is
fame, promotion, more money or more opportunities that comes along our way as a
result of our obedience to the call, we should not resist the blessing or feel
in anyway guilty. Remember our God is God of increase and He always rewards our
obedience to Him with increase.
“These are
some practical examples whereby people
changed their vocation, course of direction after discovering their calling. 1.
A very successful rhythm and blues singer after getting saved discovered her assignment, stopped playing and dancing in the club and then changed
to singing Gospel music. 2. A medical
doctor decides to quit medicine and go into full time ministry after
discovering his calling in God to be a preacher of the Gospel.3. A woman that lost her only child right after having her birth adopts a baby,
and then adopts another one after discovering her calling several years later;
she quits her 9-5 job and start running her own foster care agency business. 4.
A movie star that is successful and doing well in Hollywood ,after discover his
calling ; he starts using his gift, talents and abilities to reach out to the
lost in the film and sex industry in an evangelistic ,comical way.5. A woman that was abused as a teen who
later discovered in life that she’s called to
minister to abused people then set up a resource and help ministry to
help them regain their self-love, self-forgiveness and promote their well-being”.
For those that
are called to ministry, the following things are ways to recognize that you are
being called to minister to God’s people .1. You always have a deep passion to
reach out to the lost and the unsaved.2. Whatever angers God angers
you.3.Whoever rebels against God angers you.3. You are willing to go the extra
mile and do the unusual in faith, even when it activates the devil.4.You really
want to know more about God the Father, Son and The Holy Spirit. God’s presence
inspires you.5. You are willing to learn from other mentors, Men and Women of
God and the Holy Spirit. You want to read more about the things of God and you
are willing to invest your time in all these activities.6. You just want to
serve in any area of capacity that you see the need. (Servant heart).7. The one
thing that really that satisfies and gives you joy is preaching or teaching The
Gospel.
2Peter1:3
[Confirming One’s Calling and Election] His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness.

calling.

Psalms 37:23 The Lord makes firm the steps of the one who
delights in him; though
he may stumble, he will not fall, for the Lord upholds
him with his hand. I hope all these nuggets have blessed anyone out there
wondering about his calling/assignment. Yes, God has a calling and assignment
for everybody but we all have to individually make time and effort to discover
these callings. These are just foundation basics on divine calling. For those that
have not yet discovered their calling, Temitope Altarof Worship on
Facebook; A dynamic Woman of God is presently organizing a continuous, forum
with extensive courses running on Discovering your calling on Facebook. Check
her forum out and be mightily blessed. She was live on my show on May 3.
