Conviction ...

I was reminded in worship at CitySalvos tonight to follow the conviction that you have. What is it that God has placed upon your heart and infiltrated your mind with? What is it you feel most strongly about? What is it you are passionate about?

Is it about social justice? Is it about preaching the Word of God? Is it about evangelism (sharing the Good News with others). Is it about serving others in some fashion? It is leadership of some capacity?

The encouragement would be to test this against the Word of God, does this match with His plan for us as Christians? Is God speaking clearly to you that, this is His plan for you? This is important. We need to ensure it is of God and not merely something we want, something we are looking for, something that satisfies us.

Are you convinced it is of God. Otherwise get on your knees and check in with God and be certain. Get together with a trusted spiritual friend and together search the Scriptures and see you are on the right track. And then, be obedient to follow that passion all the way. Faithfully and in honour of God.
