Message summary & scripture references
God gave Jesus a very specific and powerful calling while He lived on the earth. Jesus’ calling sets the tone for all of our callings, but more than likely your calling will look different than Jesus’ calling.
When you study all the things Jesus did, you can learn from them, but you might not find your exact calling in the things Jesus did on earth. Therefore, don’t limit what you are called to do just because you did not see Jesus do it. Take a listen to today’s word training to learn more about this concept.
Luke 4:18-19 KJV
[18] 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,
[19] To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.
Matthew 15:22-28 KJV
[22] And, behold, a woman of Canaan came out of the same coasts, and cried unto him, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou Son of David; my daughter is grievously vexed with a devil.
[23] But he answered her not a word. And his disciples came and besought him, saying, Send her away; for she crieth after us.
[24] But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
[25] Then came she and worshipped him, saying, Lord, help me.
[26] But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children’s bread, and to cast it to dogs.
[27] And she said, Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their masters’ table.
[28] Then Jesus answered and said unto her, O woman, great is thy faith: be it unto thee even as thou wilt. And her daughter was made whole from that very hour.
