Unlocking God's Purpose

 "And say to Archippus, "Be sure to carry out the ministry the Lord gave you." Colossians 4:17

I'm twenty-one years old, and this year I just found my purpose and how I could start my ministry, I always knew I had a calling but didn't know where to begin. I knew God placed on my heart to start writing, I assumed it was a book but never knew where to begin. I then started to look for places to start a blog, many of them charged way too much monthly, that's when I found blogger.com, this site was perfect for what I needed to start. As I started these I never knew it would become a daily thing, I assumed maybe once a week, but God told me to do more. I was thinking how can I come up with something to write on the daily, here I am at day seventy-seven, still having God show me things I never seen before in the Bible. Ideas come flooding in daily, I'm so blessed to be used by God to spread his word. If you are looking for your calling in God, maybe He is showing it to you but you're not understanding correctly. I had to pray a lot for the courage to this, and I'm so thankful I found it. If you are looking for your calling dig deep into God's word, let Him open up thoughts on the Bible you never seen before, you have to learn to interpret the Bible to understand why things are the way they are today. God tells us that the world will become wicked, and full of evil. The closer you get to God the closer you are to understanding your purpose in Him, you have to trust God fully to open the doors for your future at the best time possible for you. He knows what you need, when you need it. God keeps telling me that my name is being said in rooms I never walked in before, which means my ministry is fulfilling in front of me. I'm getting closer everyday to my true purpose. You have to let God open the doors for your future, I'm not saying sit back let Him do all the work, but if you do what you can, He will do what you can't. Here are some verses to reflect on today. "Though his ministry follows mine, I'm not even worthy to be his slave and untie the straps of his sandal" John 1:27 "The apostles returned to Jesus from their ministry tour and told him all they had done and taught." Mark 6:30 "And you must also testify about me because you have been with me from the beginning of my ministry." John 15:27 "We live in such a way that no one will stumble because of us, and no one will find fault with our ministry." 2 Corinthians 6:3

Happiness That Will Never Fulfill.

“Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you your heart’s desires.” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭37:4‬ ‭ Happiness is something we are all searching for in life, it's something that we each want to feel. I have come to realize if I want to feel happiness it begins with finding God. I will never be happy in this world when I don't have God in my life. Although people think they might be happy on earth now, there will come a time for eternity and if their lives are full of sin then happiness will never last. Believing that this world can satisfy your soul is only lying to yourselves. You have to find a true meaningful relationship with God and work on it everyday, you aren't called to be perfect but you have to make an effort. God knows your heart, and if you're trying He sees that. Today, spend time truly seeking God for the happiness you're searching for. This earth cannot fill your soul. Here are some verses to reflect on today. “A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a broken sp...

Wait Patiently!

“Wait patiently for the Lord. Be brave and courageous. Yes, wait patiently for the Lord.” Psalms‬ ‭27:14‬ ‭ If God is making you wait, then wait patiently. Nothing in the waiting is a waste. I remember a time in my life where I was praying for something, I waited years and seem to receive no answer. I waited and waited. Somedays I was impatient and cried all day, other days I waited with patience of steel and praised God for what I knew I would someday receive. Sometimes the waiting is easy, other times it is an uphill battle. Whenever we are waiting we will go through different seasons, but we can count on the fact that God is at work for us. The waiting is important and a lesson is somewhere in the midst. Today, whatever it is God is having you wait for know that the season of waiting is often a time you look back on as a blessing. Even if it doesn't feel like a blessing now someday you will see how close the waiting brought you to God. When we are waiting we often spend more tim...

Don't Forget God!

“Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done.” Philippians‬ ‭4:6‬ ‭ Don't forget God when you receive what you are praying for. God knows the things that we want the most, and often times He does give us what we want. When God does give us the things we want we have to stop and give thanks. It's like this, if you give someone a gift that you know they have really been wanting, something they will absolutely love, and they don't even say thank you it would hurt your feelings. It would make you feel like they don't appreciate you. If someone asked how they got the gift and they said they got it for themselves it would make you hurt also. When God gives us what we are praying for we need to shout from the rooftops that God done it for us, that He made a way. We need to thank God, telling everyone about it. We should be excited to tell others about God and all the wonderful things He does for us. Toda...
