How do you discover your life’s calling or purpose?

To have a "calling," you must first have a caller. How can you have a call if no one is calling you to do something?

As for us Christians, God is calling us to something. But what exactly is he calling us to do, and how do we detect this earlier in existence? In this article, we’ll consider how to discover your calling. You must learn to recognize various voices, because God isn’t the only one speaking. There’s also the voice of our flesh, the world, and Satan.

What is your mission and why are you here in this world?

I believe you frequently get it wrong. You want to know what you’re supposed to do, but God wants to start with WHO YOU ARE. Is it ingrained in your bones, blood, and heart of hearts? When you accept Jesus as your Savior and ask him to be Lord of your life, you become a child of God. You were created to worship Him, to be whole, to walk in His Word, and to serve His people. God does not begin to tell us about the what of our lives until we have a firm grasp of the who.

It’s easy to figure out what you’re good at. Here are the pointers to help you figure out what God has given you or what gifts he has bestowed upon you. These will aid you in discovering your special calling.

Ask God to reveal your gifts

Through prayer, God can reveal your calling. Discuss your talents with God. Ask that he reveal your abilities to you. He may speak to you in a variety of ways about this. A new hobby could be "speaking" to you directly through the Holy Spirit, possibly through other people. Keep an eye out for these ultimate guids:

Be on the lookout for opportunities to love your neighbor.

Finding your unique calling entails figuring out how to love others. This can be accomplished by being open to God’s various opportunities to love your neighbor.

Make a list of the things that you are passionate about

What are your strongest interests and desires? What drives you enraged? What are you equipped to march for? God ignites different passions within each of us, and sometimes all we need to do is add a little fuel to the fire to find our calling. Make a list of everything that excites you and try to rank them from most passionate to least passionate.

Test out various things

Many 20-year-olds make the mistake of doing nothing until they find their calling. However, as a young professional, sometimes the best way to discover your calling is to start trying new things! Take on a new job that appears to be completely out of the ordinary. Sometimes you’ll find out you’re really good at something you never thought you’d be good at!

God reveals in order to redeem

The enemy you know is less persuasive than the enemy you don’t know. In most cases, God displays himself to us in dreams or in visions. So whenever God discloses it to you. He is warning you to take a step and to act upon what he revealed. One thing you should perceive is that your enemy is not your neighbor, sister, colleagues, etc. We only have one enemy, which is the devil. Satan is very manipulative and if you aren’t prayerful enough, you’ll end up falling in to his traps. The day you’ll understand, you’ll avoid despising them.

How to depend on Jesus

The things of this world cannot fill the empty space within us; only Christ can complete us. This embodies for us that we need Jesus more than anything else on this planet. God did not put us here to rely on ourselves, but to rely on him for everything. We can't survive without him, which is why the Bible cautions us not to rely on our own understanding, because our understanding can fail us and our hearts can lead us astray. Physically, we may appear to be capable of doing things on our own, but on the inside, we are slowly dying. I don’t know about you, but if you haven't yet accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Savior, it’s not too late. The Bible encourages us in Jeremiah 33:3 that if we call on God, he will answer us and tell us things we don't know. God is waiting for your call today. He is waiting for you to come to him and ask him to show you the way. Here is a short prayer to seek God: Heavenly Father, please forgive me for all of my transgressions against ...

Wait upon the LORD

Life resembles a route. Additionally, there will be stop signs and speed limit or increase signs along the route! I chose to use this analogy because there are times in life when all you have to do is wait on the Almighty. And just get more prayer done when you feel like a situation has triumphed over you. Simply put on the gear and switch it out. There are moments when we may feel as though the Lord is not seeing us, hearing us, or responding to our prayers. We can place all of our faith and belief in the living God at these times. Knowing that the Lord is with us and in charge of our lives allows us to wait on Him with great anticipation. He is going to fulfill his promise. He is going to save us. Even when we are not aware of Him, He is constantly at work for our good (Romans 8:28). Waiting on the Lord is something we can learn through prayer, seeking, active trusting, patience, and courage. When we wait on the Lord, we confidently anticipate a favorable outcome, for which we ...
