2 Peter 1:10 (KJV)

Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall.

It has been said that cemeteries are the epicentre of unrealised hopes and dreams—the final resting place for countless directors, singers, artists, and others whose gifts and ideas never fully materialised. What an unsettling reality!

Many have lived without fully harnessing God’s calling upon their life! Yet, the verse above says you must work diligently to make your calling and election sure! The word diligent means ‘constant in effort to accomplish something; attentive and persistent in doing anything.’ If you are truly pulled by God’s undeniable call on your life, you must make a persistent and attentive effort to make your calling sure!

Many Christians make the mistake of thinking that just because they're born again, they're living according to God’s plan for their life. This is far from the truth! If that was the case, Paul wouldn’t have told a young minister (Archippus) to make sure he fulfilled God’s calling! Today, make the decision to follow what God has called you to be and actively pursue it without excuse!

PROPHETIC DECLARATION

I am pulled into servitude! I live to fulfil God's undeniable calling on my life! By the power of the Holy Spirit, I'm guided in every single step I take to fulfil God’s mission in my life!
