Finding God’s Purpose: The 5 Most Common Mistakes People Make When Searching for God’s Plan for Their Life


self-directed learning purposeMistake #1:

Having a desire to know His plan, but not the disposition to flow with His program. Most people miss it here. God wants our whole heart, not just half of it, or as much as we are willing to give. His plan is so far above anything we can imagine, that He won’t just throw it at us casually. Walking with God requires a 100% commitment.

 

Mistake #2:

Not taking enough time to spend with God and getting intimate with Him. It is impossible to hear from God if (more…)

self-directed learning how to hear from GodHave you ever propped up your spiritual antennas, trying to hear from God, with no results?

 

Hello God? Is God really there, does He care at all about whatever happens to us? How can we know His plan for our lives, and direct ourselves according to it, if He never manifests Himself?

 

When you can’t get your radio tuned, do you call the broadcasting company to tell them there’s something wrong on their side? You’ll probably try to fix the problem on your side. You might not be on the right wave length or you might even have forgotten to plug in your radio!

 

It is just like that with God: there is nothing wrong on (more…)

You might never have asked yourself what you really want to do. If you don’t gain vision for your life you will inevitably settle on something less than what you could achieve.

Of course, nobody wants that. But how can you gain new vision for your life when it seems that there is no purpose at all?

Are You Feeling Unworthy of Receiving God’s Blessings in Your Life? Learn How to Overcome the Fatal Trap of Condemnation


self-directed learning frustrated girlCondemnation is able to powerfully rob you of your God-ordained blessings. When people feel they don’t deserve to receive from God, their faith won’t work and their lives stall. That is why it is the enemies most effective weapon to keep us from walking in victory.

 

I am always shocked by how many Christians are tormented with feelings of condemnation. Some mistake they made in the past, or a relationship they blundered up, or just simple every day sin consciousness hovers over them like a dark cloud that won’t allow the sun to shine in their lives.

 

But the good news is that Jesus came to solve that problem. That is what the Gospel is really all about. He came to pay for our sins so that we could become righteous before God. He legally removed our unworthiness and made us deserving of all God wants to bless us with. And the Bible says it was forever. (more…)

Learn How to Hear From God and Get Divine Direction for Your Life


self-directed learning sunriseWouldn’t it be great if you could ask the Creator of the Universe what His opinion is about that issue you are facing? Imagine you could go to Him right now and freely ask Him!

 

I mean, He knows exactly what is going on in all spheres of your life and probably has the perfect answer for your dilemma. And besides, He is a whole lot smarter than you are!

 

For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. (Romans 8:14)

 

The Bible clearly states that we are already led by the Spirit of God if we are born again by accepting Jesus as the Lord of our lives and therefore have become sons and daughters of God.

 

Being able to talk to God and hear His opinion about whatever we are up to is an awesome privilege that is not beyond our reach! It is something Christians should actually take much more advantage of! God desires to talk to us and to communicate with us, but we have to do our part.

 

Here are 3 steps you can follow to learn how to be led by the Holy Spirit: (more…)

Let Go and Let God: Discover How to Live a Life Beyond Your Human Efforts


self-directed learning heartIt doesn’t matter how smart we think we are or how determined we are to give it our all, human efforts are pitifully meek compared to what God can do through a person who chooses to believe in Him.

 

Maybe you are struggling right now to accomplish your goals. You’ve carefully planned it all out, invested money and tons of your effort, but it still won’t work out. Not as you expected it to anyway.

 

Well, congratulations! You’ve reached your limits. It’s time to let go and let God.

 

It is when we give up and desperately run to Him for help that He will do the impossible in our lives. Because it’s only then that we give Him the authority to do so. He won’t move an inch on our behalf unless we surrender to Him and are willing to flow with His program.

 

God cannot intervene in our lives unless He is invited to do so. But: boy, does our life change once we give Him the green light! Once we decide to believe in what He can achieve in our lives, He will show us how pathetic our human exploits are in comparison. Let Him surprise you!

 

And we also have to keep in mind that (more…)
