Series: Change Your World

Fulfilling our God-given calling involves faithfulness, obedience, and sacrifice.
We must learn to recognize the God-given opportunities in front of us every day.
Text: Exodus 3:1-12

1. Be Where You Are

Moses was doing what he knew to do, tending sheep for his father-in-law.
Before we can expect to do what, we believe God is ultimately calling us to, we must be faithful with where He’s already placed us.
Be faithful there even though it may not be exactly where you want to be or your goal.
There’s great power in doing what we do well.

2. Go Over

Moses was tending to their sheep, but when he saw the burning bush, he went towards it.
Following God means we recognize when He’s speaking and where He’s working and we join Him there.
It may not be a burning bush, but we should still press in when we feel Him calling.
We’ll be uncomfortable at times, but when we see a need or see Him working, it’s always worth pressing in.

3. Getting to There

We have a call to live a life of purpose.
We have gifts and passions that God wants us to use for Him at a place in which He’s preparing for us.
This call can change, but we must continue to seek that place.
We must learn to recognize the God-given opportunities in front of us every day.
Are you recognizing the opportunities around you?
What can you do now to move toward your call?
Your calling is for more than what you’re doing, at least the way you’re doing it.
What this means is that, with God, we can take our daily routine and give it reason.
