The Word, The Vision And The Purpose Of Your Call

"But rise, and stand upon thy feet: for I have appeared unto thee for this purpose, to make thee a minister and a witness both of these things which thou hast seen, and of those things in the which I will appear unto thee; Delivering thee from the people, and from the Gentiles, unto whom now I send thee, To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me." - Acts 26:16-18 Read (Acts 9:15-16)

EXPLORATION

Everyone called of God is given a WORD to fulfill, a VISION to run with, and a PURPOSE for the CALL. God expects total obedience to fulfill the call. Never underestimate yourself – you are UNIQUE, as you are called to fulfill a purpose for the Kingdom of God. Your unwillingness approach and your delay in manifestation is a delay in someone’s Deliverance, Healing, Breakthrough, Blessings and Miracle. If for no other reason, because of these ones, Go ahead and PRAY for your encounter.

INSPIRATION

When Saul was encountered on the way to Damascus, in his determination to find, destroy and kill as many believer Christians that he could lay his hands on. He never knew that it would be the will of God for him “carry the cross” and preach the Gospel of TRUTH. He was being Zealous in evil but was good to his own understanding – just like many people are doing in this generation today.

In his encounter by the Lord and Savor Jesus Christ, he received the word of Spirit and became Life in him. Jesus says in His teaching: "It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life." - John 6:63 Everyone of us as received the word of the Life and this word as given unto us Life, but what do you do with the Life? Paul declared before the King to the extent that the King cannot stand the word that he recognized the Life in the word. Here is how Apostle Paul put it: "Whereupon, O king Agrippa, I was not disobedient unto the heavenly vision" - Acts 26:19

He also says this after revealing his encounter by the Lord: "King Agrippa, believest thou the prophets? I know that thou believest. Then Agrippa said unto Paul, Almost thou persuadest me to be a Christian." - Acts 26: 27-28

God has called you for a Purpose; HE is giving unto you a Vision and a Word to run your race on earth. God did not want you to run other people’s purpose. HE wants you to run the unique vision and word HE gave you. Understand this; we did not say you should not be part of a Church or ministry to serve and submit. We are simply saying that God as a word for you to fulfill. And if you understand this word, vision and purpose of your Life you will be able to fulfill. Don’t just be like other people. We believe that every Church leader should know that they are leading many ministries because everyone has a unique ministry given by God for the Body of Christ.

Paul did not run Peter’s race. He had his own race to run. He was sent to the Gentiles. Peter was called to be a fisher of men with a distinct WORD to feed the Body of Christ. Jesus says: "…Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men." - Matthew 4:19 and He also declared: "… Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, Lovest thou me? And he said unto him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus saith unto him, Feed my sheep." - John 21:15-17

Beloved, don’t be like other preachers. Don’t copy their vision. You are UNIQUE! You are called to fulfill a purpose for the Kingdom of God. Now go ahead and pray. Say, “Father God! Encounter my Life in this season! Let me hear THY WORD for my Spirit! Let me understand my Call and my Purpose! That I may run a good race! Amen!” PRAY!!! PRAY!!! PRAY!!!

Our Lord Jesus Christ came to the world He created, even though HE was the WORD, with a VISION and a PURPOSE to fulfill. He declared:

"And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Esaias. And when he had opened the book, he found the place where it was written, The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, To preach the acceptable year of the Lord." - Luke 4:17-19

Moses was called, sent with a vision and a purpose to fulfill. After the Lord God caught the attention of Moses by revealing the burning fire – HE revealed HIMSELF as the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob to the extent that Moses was afraid. (Exodus 3:4-6) HE gave Moses a WORD to fulfill. HE says: "Come now therefore, and I will send thee unto Pharaoh, that thou mayest bring forth my people the children of Israel out of Egypt." - Exodus 3:10

David was given a different assignment; many of us today will love the assignment given to him. He was anointed a king of Israel, over the people and the promise of God.  (1 Samuel 16:12-13) Here is what the Bible says: "Then Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the midst of his brethren: and the Spirit of the LORD came upon David from that day forward. So Samuel rose up, and went to Ramah." - 1 Samuel 16:13

Just to name a few; we can see how God has given HIS Word, Vision and Purpose of Call to these servants.

Isaiah’s call was awesome, as he was sent and commissioned by the Lord God for a Purpose to fulfill then and even in this end time, after Noah, the first preacher of the Gospel of repentance in Faith to the corrupt generation of his time – Isaiah preach the gospel as he was sent of God.

The Bible says: "Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me. And he said, Go, and tell this people, Hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye indeed, but perceive not." - Isaiah 6:8-9 

Likewise Prophet Jeremiah, was given a Word, a Vision and a Purpose – he ran the race of life fulfilling that which he was called. The Bible says: "Then the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations. Then said I, Ah, Lord GOD! Behold, I cannot speak: for I am a child. But the LORD said unto me, Say not, I am a child: for thou shalt go to all that I shall send thee, and whatsoever I command thee thou shalt speak." - Jeremiah 1:4-7

This week:  We believe by Faith that the Lord God is speaking to your heart this day as you receive this Weekly Digest. This word is for you. It’s now your turn to go unto the Lord in prayer and ask – at least for this season, ask for your Unique WORD, Vision and Purpose for your life. Forget about asking for money or things that will only benefit the flesh. God will encounter you in a new way; you will see you have a ministry in the Body of Christ. You will see that you will begin to function glorious in the Church where you served. Do this for Christ sake, do it for your generation, finally, do this for the Love of God. Amen!

Remember the Bible says: "It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life." - John 6:63

"But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth." - Acts 1:8. Today, see that ye are induced with power of the Holy Ghost that you may witness rightly.

You are blessed, we love you!
