DESIRE < COMMITMENT + THE HOLY SPIRIT

It took me years to realise that my desire is not enough to pursue God’s calling over my life. I knew bible verses, listen to other’s story and I even received straight instructions from God, which I desire to obey but I guess I was too comfortable to move, so I kept falling back.


I prayed so long for God to give me the zeal to please Him, and it looked like the more I prayed the more I felt it was impossible to do what I was suppose to do. There were times I just gave up because, I just couldn’t put myself together to live up to God’s expectations of me.


In a world where there are so many voices, pressure and distraction: even your availability is not enough in fulfilling purpose in life.


As Christians when it comes to anything that has to do with pleasing our God, the devil is always ready to devise schemes to distract us from that path because, he knows that your obedience to God’s word can cause destruction to his kingdom.


Trust me the devil knows the grace and anointing over your life and he knows the impact your obedience can have on generations, if he allows you.


So, to keep you off track God’s will, he devises ways to cripple you with the fleeting pleasures of the world or distract you with problems that Jesus has already overcome on the cross.


God doesn’t force His will on you he watches you closely till you are ready to resist the devil and put him in his place.


Your desires will have to be translated into the commitment for the Holy Spirit to takeover . Commitment starts with the heart, once you put your heart into what God has called you to do, your whole being will align with it. When you develop passion for that calling ,there are sacrifices involved.


Commitment takes effort. One has to actively make an effort to pursue his or her purpose .You should believe that God has equipped you for the task at hand, so you need to take steps of faith and act. Commit time, prayer and fasting , hear from God, learn, adjust your lifestyle and believe God for success.


Philippians 2: 13: “ For it is God who is at work in you, both to will and to work for His pleasure”


Once you are ready to commit your ways to the Holy Spirit, who is our ever present help, He will begin to guide you to the perfect will of God concerning your call.

Surrender all your ways to the Holy Spirit, and He will partner with you in fulfilling your God given destiny. Give room to the Holy Spirit to work on your heart, and stop trying to figure everything out on your own. Partner with the Holy Spirit for the anointing and the glory over your calling.


it is not about what people say or how people receive you but it’s about obedience towards your purpose . Living up to the expectation of God towards your calling, position you to experience God’s glory through the Holy Spirit.
With the guidance of the Holy Spirit, you won’t only be successful but you will be fulfilled .


John 14 : 26 : “But the helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the father will send in my name, He shall teach you all things and bring all things in your remembrance whatsoever I have said unto you”.


PRAY WITH ME


Thank you Father Lord for considering me worthy of your calling. Forgive me for always relying on my strength.
Sweet Holy Spirit, come and work on my heart to understand the weight of my calling. Guide me and instructs me, so I won’t only please man but most importantly be a faithful servant to my Heavenly Father.
This and many more I pray in Jesus name.
Amen
