Philippians chapter 2:13 says for God is
working in you giving you the desire and
the power to do what pleases him God
wants us to be more focused on what he
has called us to be to achieve this he
will begin to give us certain desires so
we can be better equipped for our
callings here are three signs God is
saying you need training for your
calling sign one you struggle at the
place of your
assignment one sign that God is saying
you need training for your calling is
when you struggle at the place of your
assignment struggling at the place of
your assignment is normal because you're
most likely just starting so don't feel
bad about this what isn't normal is when
you choose nothing about it struggling
is proof that you're not a master of
your craft consider Jesus for example
whoever met him was healed delivered or
taken care of he didn't struggle with
his assignment but some of his disciples
did and he often chided them for this
for example Jesus walked on water in
Matthew 14:
22-33 when his disciples saw him coming
towards them they were understandably
afraid but Peter told Jesus to tell him
to come if he was the one and Jesus gave
him the go-ahead Peter also walked on
water but when he saw the wind he got
afraid and began to sink he cried out to
Jesus to save him and he did but then
Jesus asked him why did you doubt Peter
was still struggling to become like
Jesus so he wasn't able to do as Jesus
did another example was when Jesus went
up the mountain with Peter James and
John for his Transfiguration in Matthew
17:
14-22 he left his other disciples and
when a man with a demon-possessed boy
came to them to heal him they weren't
able to when Jesus came he sorted it out
immediately the disciples were concerned
about this and asked Jesus why they
weren't able to heal the boy and Jesus
gave them two reasons one was their lack
of faith and also because some demons
will not go out except by prayer and
fasting the disciples struggled but they
didn't give up they continued to train
with Jesus and one day in Acts chapter 2
the disciples were filled with the
spirit of God their training had come to
an end and through the enablement of the
spirit they were able to do so much for
God they never struggled again to do any
Supernatural acts as they did before it
is even recorded in Acts chapter 5
verses 15 to 16 that people brought
their sick so that the shadow of Peter
can heal them this was how trained they
had become once you notice that you're
struggling in whatever feel God has
called you to it shouldn't get you upset
or worried it shouldn't even get you to
feel bad about yourself instead you
should be determined to get more
training so that you can be perfect
acts 7:22 says Moses was educated in all
the learning of the Egyptians and he was
a man of power in words and deeds Moses
wasn't the only person that was trained
everyone God used had to have been
trained the reason why God wants us to
be trained is that God loves when his
children are at the Forefront of things
because this will cause men to glorify
him the Bible says in Matthew 5:16 kjb
let your light so shine for men that
they may see your good works and glorify
your father which is in heaven this is
God's desire for us of course these
trainings are different for everyone
because we have different assignments
and different areas of struggle two
people may be called to Ministry and one
may struggle to preach properly while
the other May struggle in helping the
people God has sent him or her to you
need training to put an end to
struggling and become the light that God
has desired you to
be sign two God links you up with people
who have excelled in your place of
assignment when God starts showing you
people who have succeeded at what he is
calling you to do it's a sign that God
wants you to be trained sometimes God
trains us himself other times he
requires us to learn under certain
people that he has already trained when
Samuel was a little boy he heard his
name and ran to his master Eli because
he thought Eli was calling him he didn't
know it was the voice of God but when
Eli realized it was God calling Samuel
he taught him how to respond this is why
mentors and leaders are very important
you must not be too proud to learn from
people who are already successful at
what you are about to do if you are you
will end up not having a long-lasting
impact often we refer to the Joshua
Generation The Generation who was able
to take the promised land that God
planned for the children of Israel to
take God used Moses to bring out the
children of Israel from Egypt with many
signs and wonders
but he used Joshua to take them to the
promised L end now the only reason why
God could use Joshua is because he was
already prepared for the job he was
trained by Moses since he was a young
man he was often there when God spoke to
Moses somewhere at the corner Faithfully
serving him compared to the remaining
men in his time Joshua saw and knew
things only Moses had access to because
he was always around Moses and this is
why he was so successful and had a long
last ing impact judges 2:7 says and the
Israelites served the Lord throughout
the lifetime of Joshua and the leaders
who outlived him those who had seen all
the great things the Lord had done for
Israel this is a very great testimony
and it only happened because the Lord
was with Joshua and helped him to be
trained to achieve this before we

example is the prophets Elijah and
Elisha
in First Kings 19: 211 Elisha became the
servant of Elijah Elisha followed Elijah
and by so doing he was able to learn
everything that Elijah knew as God was
about to take Elijah Elisha made sure he
followed him to Jericho bethl and Jordan
once at Jordan Elijah used his cloak to
divide the river as other prophets
observed and the river parted so they
walked across on dry land then at
Elijah's prompting Elisha requested for
a double portion of the Spirit of Elijah
and it was granted after God had taken
Elijah up to heaven Elisha returned and
the prophets watched him then Elisha
used Elijah's cloak to also part the
River Jordan and walked on dry ground
the prophets watching acknowledged that
the spirit of Elijah was on him why was
Elisha able to produce the exact result
Elijah produced this is because he was
trained by Elijah to have a longlasting
impact you must choose to submit to
successful people in your area as God
leads you
you sign three there will be a desire to
separate
yourself have you sometimes desire to
just be by yourself you don't have
issues with anyone but you just feel
like being alone you still feel a lot of
love for your friends and families but
you also seem to enjoy your own company
more and more and just want to
concentrate on God and your Divine
Destiny sometimes it happens like this
when you notice that you just want to be
alone it may be God calling you to go
for further training for your calling I
know in this generation most people just
relate a desire to separate oneself from
others as depression but you must
realize that it is not always the case
sometimes when you desire to be alone it
might be that God is preparing you for
an encounter this encounter will lead
you to the next thing to do or training
to undergo instead of fighting being
alone because you are scared of people
calling you depressed use this time to
ask God what he wants stay sensitive to
God so you can hear him speak you must
have moments where you separate from
friends and families to hear God for
example until lot left Abraham God
didn't speak to him also Jacob only had
an encounter when he sent all his family
and servants away and as a Believer
depression shouldn't be the first thing
that comes to your mind instead prepare
your heart to hear God anything you hear
at this stage and put into practice will
surely lead you deeper into your calling
God will give you the desire to separate
yourself but you can always quench this
desire if you are hungry or thirsty you
can decide not to drink or eat as we do
in fasting and after a while we see that
we no longer feel this way in the same
way you can quing every desire that God
is giving you and the danger in this is
that you may not fulfill your call or
you may delay in fulfilling your call
this is because you have refused to
partake in the training that will will
equip you to step into your calling I
pray in jesus' name that you will not
quench the desires that God has giving
you you will be helped by God to go
through all the necessary training that
pushes you to your calling I pray that
you will never disappoint God and you
will become a mighty vessel used by God
