God has a purpose for you right now.
You may think you're not ready to make a difference in God's
Kingdom or that you're too young for others to take seriously. But
that's not what God thinks.
At some point, you have to understand your own purpose and
significance in the kingdom of God. How does God want to use
you? This book uses the Old Testament leader Joshua as a
model for stepping up to God's big calling. Before Joshua, Moses
was the one who had spoken to God, performed miracles, and
challenged Pharaoh. But at some point, Joshua had to come out to
the front. So what did he do? How did he step up? And what steps
can you take to seize "now" for yourself?
Now is your time. If you will be steadfast and unmovable,
and always abound in what God is calling you to do, you'll see that
it will not be in vain. He has a plan, a destiny for your life.
Now means "not later." Now means "don't wait." God
wants to do great things.
Don't Let Fear Keep You from God's Calling
Jonathan Evans was riding the coattails of his father's
relationship with God. The son of a highly accomplished pastor with
a huge ministry, he was comfortable and did what he had to do, but
he didn't push himself to figure out his own role or purpose. But
as he got older, he realized he needed to do more with his
life.
At some point, you have to understand your own calling and
significance in the Kingdom of God. How does God want to use
you? Jonathan uses the Old Testament leader Joshua as a
model for stepping up to God's big call on your life. Before
Joshua, Moses was the one who had spoken to God, performed
miracles, and stood up to Pharaoh. But now Joshua had to come out
to the front. So what did he do? How did he step up? And what steps
can you take to seize now for yourself?
Now is your time. If you will be steadfast and unmovable,
and always abound in what God is calling you to do, you'll see that
it will not be in vain. He has a plan, a destiny for your
life.
Now means not later. Now means don't wait. God wants
to do great things. Right now.
