This message is taught by Amos Johnson Jr, PhD. He leads and pastors Church for Entrepreneurs. God has given him a calling to help believers succeed at their calling. He believes a fulfilled life comes from clearly knowing what God has called you to do and doing it.
Discussion summary & scripture references
Most believers already have a good basic knowledge of what God has called them to do because God has not been hiding it from them. He has revealed it to them throughout their lives. The real issue is that many of us have not accepted our calling. We are full of self doubt and excuses. However, until we willingly accept our calling, we can’t even begin to be successful. Listen to this replay from our live Faith-Discussion to receive revelation about this concept.
Exodus 3:10-12 ERV
[10] So now I am sending you to Pharaoh. Go! Lead my people, the Israelites, out of Egypt.”
[11] But Moses said to God, “I am not a great man! How can I be the one to go to Pharaoh and lead the Israelites out of Egypt?”
[12] God said, “You can do it because I will be with you. This will be the proof that I am sending you: After you lead the people out of Egypt, you will come and worship me on this mountain.”
1 Peter 5:6-7 KJV
[6] Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:
[7] Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
Exodus 3:12-14 ERV
[12] Then Moses said to God, “But if I go to the Israelites and say to them, ‘The God of your ancestors sent me,’ then the people will ask, ‘What is his name?’ What should I tell them?”
[14] Then God said to Moses, “Tell them, ‘I AM WHO I AM.’ When you go to the Israelites, tell them, ‘I AM’ sent me to you.”
Jeremiah 1:4-8 NLT
[4] The LORD gave me this message:
[5] “I knew you before I formed you in your mother’s womb. Before you were born I set you apart and appointed you as my prophet to the nations.”
[6] “O Sovereign LORD,” I said, “I can’t speak for you! I’m too young!”
[7] The LORD replied, “Don’t say, ‘I’m too young,’ for you must go wherever I send you and say whatever I tell you.
[8] And don’t be afraid of the people, for I will be with you and will protect you. I, the LORD, have spoken!”
Exodus 4:1 ERV
[1] Then Moses said to God, “But the Israelites will not believe me when I tell them that you sent me. They will say, ‘The LORD did not appear to you.'”
Matthew 13:54-57 KJV
[54] And when he was come into his own country, he taught them in their synagogue, insomuch that they were astonished, and said, Whence hath this man this wisdom, and these mighty works?
[55] Is not this the carpenter’s son? is not his mother called Mary? and his brethren, James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas?
[56] And his sisters, are they not all with us? Whence then hath this man all these things?
[57] And they were offended in him. But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, save in his own country, and in his own house.
Exodus 4:10-12 ERV
[10] Then Moses said to the LORD, “But, Lord, I am telling you, I am not a good speaker. I have never been able to speak well. And that hasn’t changed since you started talking to me. I am still not a good speaker. You know that I speak slowly and don’t use the best words.”
[11] Then the LORD said to him, “Who made a person’s mouth? And who can make someone deaf or not able to speak? Who can make a person blind? Who can make a person able to see? I am the one. I am the LORD.
[12] So go. I will be with you when you speak. I will give you the words to say.”
1 Corinthians 1:27-29 KJV
[27] But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;
[28] And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea , and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are:
[29] That no flesh should glory in his presence.
Exodus 4:13-17 ERV
[13] But Moses said, “My Lord, I beg you to send someone else, not me.”
[14] Then the LORD became angry with Moses and said, “All right! I’ll give you someone to help you. Aaron the Levite is your brother, isn’t he? He is a good speaker. In fact, Aaron is already coming to meet you, and he will be happy to see you.
[15] I will tell you what to say. Then you will tell Aaron, and I will help him say it well. I will tell both of you what to do.
[16] So Aaron will speak for you. Like God, you will speak to him, and he will tell the people what you say.
[17] So go and carry your walking stick with you. Use it and the other miracles to show the people that I am with you.”
