Season 2 Episode 3: PURSUING PURPOSE

\\xa0\\u201cWe sing songs that say \\u201cthis world is not my home; I\\u2019m just passing through\\u201d. But if that passing through is for seventy years, then you are here for more than \\u201cjust passing through\\u201d. You are here for a reason.\\u201d\\xa0

\\xa0\\u201cPurpose answers the question of why we are here; the reason why God made you.\\u201d

\\xa0"Calling is the specific thing that you are called to\\u2026 Calling gives a specific definition to your purpose.\\u201d

\\xa0\\u201cThe fact that you\\u2019ve discovered your purpose or your calling doesn\\u2019t mean that it\\u2019s not going to be challenging. It will be challenging. Once you\\u2019ve found it [your purpose, calling], you\\u2019ve got to stay loyal to it; you\\u2019ve got to keep pushing.\\u201d \\xa0

  • Your Purpose is the overarching reason why you are here
  • Calling is the specific thing that you are called to\\u2026 Calling gives a specific definition to your purpose
  • Within your calling you will have different assignments

  • It is important to stay connected to God so that he can keep guiding and shepherding you throughout that process of discovering and living your purpose
  • As we walk in God\\u2019s calling, there are certain character traits that we ALL must exhibit in order to live a fruitful and productive life (example from Eph 4:1 AMP) \\u2013 godly character, moral courage, personal integrity and mature behavior
  • God requires a certain standard of behavior, in order for you to be able to get to where he wants to take you
  • To stay in tune with God and on course with Him, we must live in obedienceIf we don\\u2019t walk in obedience, it can throw us off
  • Our purpose manifests as part of a process. God intricately weaves our experiences for His purposes in our lives. Lady Monica shares that her training as a lawyer helped her be a better preacher, teacher and advocate
  • Pursuing your purpose will have challenges along the way. Therefore, having conviction about your purpose, your calling, your assignment is very important. We must stay the course and in the fullness of time, the fruits WILL come.
