If you're not living your destiny and you're a Christian, you've probably known for sometime that God has something special for you, but you can't figure out what it is. This is because there is a specific way that we are to approach God to receive this special guidance.

Looking To God For Career and Christian Service

This particular Bible
Study centers upon
the
reality of God's call upon each Christian's life and the means by which
they can discover what it is and how to walk in it for the rest of
their lives.
I've made available this condensed version from the first few studies of our Kings and Priests Bible Study to help you determine your special calling and how to achieve it. Should you need further study, you can continue from Part III with the more comprehensive study that will give you more knowledge to fulfill God's plans, purposes and pursuits for your life and to help God share the Gospel within your community. Revelation 1:6 tells us: "And has made us kings and priests to His God and Father, to Him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen." Knowing this begins the destiny discovery process. You Were Made By God's
Design To
Serve Him In A Special and Unique Way Within The Church or Within The World, But Not Of The World Not knowing what God has called us to do can be a nagging and perplexing state of mind that has caused many Christians to have doubts about their purpose or calling in life. To know what God has already equipped us to do is the beginning of our special and unique work, so it is important that you seek your calling from God to begin the process of destiny discovery and development. We are all ministers even if we have not been called into a church ministry as a leader or within the ministry of helps. God has created a ministry position for you alone and if you haven't stepped forward to take your assignment, it's still waiting for you. If God has designed your special work outside the church you will work within a ministry called a marketplace ministry as a "king." This type of calling connects your career or business, your life's purpose and your desire to serve God into one package. It holds the passion of your life and the greatest fulfillment. You can begin your ministry right where you stand today by making the decision to look to God for direction. This is living your destiny in the beginning stages. It's a sad and unfortunate fact that most Christians have not been taught how to communicate with God specifically for destiny discovery and development. This has left many wondering what God wants them to do as well as waiting most of their lives to hear something from God in order to find inner fulfillment. For too many Christians, time passes by without their finding any answers. It's the purpose of this study to change that reality by helping you live your destiny as God has purposed. Should it not be as you may have imagined it, I can assure you that in time you will embrace it with great passion, commitment, and excitement. You will come to not only love it, but be thankful for it. You can begin living your destiny with the prayer of dedication and consecration. However before you dedicate your life to Christ and consecrate your work to God, it can be helpful to ask God to show you if you are a "king" or a "priest." Another way to put this is to know whether God wants you to fulfill a ministry calling or a career/job/business within the world. Knowing the answer to this question will automatically set your feet on the right path for receiving God's will for you alone, and for the blessings that go with it. By this I don't mean that God will automatically change all of your problems, but your faith in God will be escalated by knowing that you are now walking in God's power and ability to live victoriously in your career, business or ministry and personal life. Note: Although living your destiny begins with God's guidance and your accepting it, you should not act on it without waiting upon God for timing and instruction first unless you hear otherwise. You move step-by-step with God. The difficulties Christians experience that are keeping them from God's will is a combination of the following attitudes:
