It's A Holy Calling

Every person on the face of this earth was born to a destiny laid out for them by God Almighty. It is a holy calling because it is God’s calling. You are born for a purpose. Yes, you! Regardless of who you are or where you are right now, you were born to fulfill the plan of God for your life. A calling is a plan. It is God’s plan for you. If you do not know what that plan is, ask Him. He will tell you. It will be made clear to you. How will He tell you? It may not be a loud voice saying: Thus saith the Lord…… It may as simple as this: I really like to do ________. That is more than likely your calling.

People have gotten confused with the word “calling” thinking that it means someone who is called to a pulpit ministry. No, no! Your calling is what God has purposed for you and you alone to do. It is the place where you find the most joy and peace. There are people who are born, live and die and never fulfill what God has called them to do because they are afraid to step out in what they sense they enjoy doing. God will make the way clear for you. Whatever He calls you to do, He already has the provision to fulfill that plan.

2 Timothy 1:9,10
It is God Who has saved me and called me with an holy calling….according to His own purpose and grace, which was given me in Christ Jesus before the world began. It is now made manifest by the appearing of my Savior Jesus Christ, Who has abolished death (made it of no effect) and has brought life and immortality to light through the gospel.

2 Thessalonians 1:11
God, I pray that You would count me worthy of this calling and fulfill all the good pleasure of Your goodness and the work of faith with power.

Yes, it is God Who has called you according to His own purpose. He gives you His grace to fulfill that calling.
