Find Your Purpose: It’s Never Too Late

lastwordrecovery

Moses was 80 years old, and Aaron was 83, when they spoke to the king.

(Exodus 7:7)

Like Moses and Aaron, you understand that it is never too late to start a new venture. When God reveals a fresh assignment, you know He will make a way for you to see it through to completion.

On some days your work is beautiful and clear, but other days, not so much. During the foggy days you rely on the mercy of God and your own personal tenacity to power through.

Like Moses and Aaron, you may not always understand what you’re doing or if it will succeed. But you know that God has a plan and the best place to be, is right in the middle of it!

When you become discouraged or tired from the strain, you remind yourself to be grateful for your call. You know that the Creator of the Universe designed you with a divine purpose in mind. No matter how risky or overwhelming your call may be, there is eternal significance in everything you do.

Christ took hold of you so that you can take hold of the destiny which is yours. You are bringing freedom to the people in your circle of influence. 

 You may wonder if the task will ever be completed or if the wandering will ever end. Yet, you remain patient knowing that God has a plan and He has deemed you a worthy partner to make it happen.

Understanding Your Role as a Prayer Warrior

lastwordrecovery

Samuel said, “I will pray to the Lord for you.”

(1 Samuel 7:5)

You are often asked to pray for others. You are known as a prayer warrior. Friends, family, and acquaintances come to you with their needs, asking you to pray on their behalf.

Sometimes, you receive a prayer request from the Holy Spirit because an intercessor is needed to pray it through. This appeal comes to you as an inner urgency, placed there by God Himself.

You don’t always understand why you wake up in the middle of the night with a news story from across the world, replaying in your mind. All you know is that you must pray.

Other times, prayers are requested by those who know how powerful your prayers are and how seriously you take this responsibility.

Ironically, your most powerful battles on the spiritual front coincides with times when you are unable to function at full physical capacity. A lack of physical strength has no bearing on the results you produce in the spiritual realm.

lastwordrecovery

“And if God cares so wonderfully for wildflowers that are here today and gone tomorrow, He will certainly care for you.”

(Matthew 6:30)

In a world of competition and comparisons, you sometimes wonder if your value is measured by what you do, rather than by who you are.

This is a concern for many human beings. Some struggle to do more, or to be better in order to feel significant.  Others think that genetics, money, talent, or fame will make them feel important. Sadly, these beliefs prove to be worthless.

Knowing that you are handmade by the Creator of the Universe assures you of your value. Since you are so special to God, He designed you in a uniquely wonderful way. Before your mother even knew you existed, God was already weaving together the strands of your DNA.

Imagine His excitement as He  selected your eye color, your voice tone, and your sense of humor! He gave you a passion for family, friendship, and community.

He infused you with a high level of curiosity and creativity. He placed within you, specific gifts and talents which you are just beginning to discover.

Your value is far beyond what you do or say. You are much more important than your background, achievements or awards.

You are a person with a destiny; designed by the God of the galaxies.

You play an important role in the future of humanity. Each day you spend on this planet becomes a  significant part of history.

God knows the value of your distinctive human spirit. He knows that your heart is filled with compassion, determination, and enthusiasm. He has given you a mind, body, and temperament which are ideal for your journey.

Embracing Divine Peace: Your Inner Umpire

lastwordrecovery

“May the Lord look on you with favor and give you peace.” (Numbers 6:26)

The peace of God serves as an umpire in your life.  It is the ruling authority in all your decision-making processes.

You know that if you do not experience a supernatural sense of peace when assessing options, your inner umpire has called it a strike.

Rather than giving up, you wait patiently for the next opportunity to try a different approach. That way, when the next opportunity arises, you are on deck, ready to take another swing.

It may be difficult for you to describe this inner peace to others, since it is so deeply personal between you and your Creator.

While this peace is beyond human reasoning or logic, you are aware when it is present, and you rely on its direction.

As you continue your journey, with peace as your guide, you become more attuned to it. This sense of peace, given by God, is as keen as any of your physical senses.

You recognize and appreciate the peace of God because it is the single, most relevant source of direction that you know.
