nine clear signs you will see when you are called or chosen by God sign number one an insatiable hunger for righteousness one of the most apparent signs God has called you is that you will have an unquenchable desire for the things of God this is because when God calls you his primary aim will be to renew your spirit this will lead to you having a strong Zeal and hunger for the things of God Jesus said in Matthew 5 blessed are they that hunger after righteousness for they shall be filled you might discover that you will
start to feel a sudden urge to read the Bible listen to sermons or interact with other believers this isn't just a passing interest it's a deep burning passion that you can't ignore the Reason God will do this is because he wants to fill your spirit by equipping you with the knowledge and power you need sign number two you easily get convicted when God calls you another obvious sign you notice will be that you will always feel convicted whenever you do something wrong let me explain when God calls you the first thing he does is to
separate you from the nature of sin so whenever you do something sinful your conscience will come alive and you will immediately have a sense of regret each time you do something wrong whenever you feel a strong sense of conviction it is actually a good thing it means that the spirit of God is actively trying to purge you and help you become a clean person in fact the Bible talks about this in second Corinthians chapter 7 verse 10. it says for Godly sorrow leads to repentance whereas worldly grief produces death sign number three you will lose
friends when God calls you don't be surprised if your friends start leaving you you might find out that people you used to hang out with just don't seem to understand you anymore they might start to distance themselves from you or cut you off completely and this can be very difficult especially because these are people that you may have known for years or maybe even decades but the truth is when God will call you you will start to see things differently and your priorities will shift you'll remove them because he doesn't want anyone to be a
hindrance to your calling in fact even if he doesn't remove them you might find out that they will start leaving you on their own this is because the lighting you convicts them of the darkness in them for example when you study John chapter 6 The Bible says many of Jesus followers cut off from him and walk with him no more and while it may be painful at first know that this is all for your own good so if you're going through this right now don't let it get you down sign number four trials and temptations
an obvious sign that will show that God has called you is that you will face an incredible amount of Temptations many people mistakenly assume Temptations suddenly stop when Scott calls them this is a false belief in fact if before you were called by God you were only tempted 10 times a day your level of Trials and temptations will increase by a hundred times a day God's calling upon your life doesn't mean the devil will leave you alone in fact you will face one of the fiercest levels of Temptation you've ever faced the reason the devil
will intensify this is so that you get overwhelmed and discouraged notice that in Matthew chapter 4 the Bible tells us Jesus was driven into the Wilderness to be tested by the devil if you must serve God you must be prepared for times when you will be tempted in fact people who never used to offend you before will suddenly start to get on your nerves this will be the period in which you're calling and standing with God will be tested but you should not be afraid to face Temptations but rather you should be confident to confront
it knowing god is more than able to deliver you from all manners of Temptations sign number five you will be filled with authority when God calls you he will bestow a lot of power upon you this power that will come from above will be accompanied by a high level of authority now this Authority doesn't mean you will boss people around or make demands it's a different kind of authority one that comes from humility and Grace this means you might find yourself doing things you normally won't do from time to time you might wake up and
suddenly find yourself feeling like preaching or praying for someone the Holy Spirit Will begin to move you just like he moved the apostles you won't be in control of yourself you might see a sick person and you find yourself laying hands on them to pray for them you won't know why you are doing this but you will just have that Authority from above naturally you might be very shy in real life but when God calls you you will find out you will become very bold and full of authority you could stand in front of large
crowds and speak to all classes of people without feeling afraid in the Bible every time God called anyone he spent time encouraging them to be bold and fear not sign number six persecution God's calling comes with Glory but that Glory also attracts adversity when you sign up to be a God's representative you're signing up for a life of persecution you're signing up for the life of someone who is going to be criticized and judged people who knew you might be the first to look down on you they might even threaten to cut off ties with
you in fact you might be surprised that even Christians will persecute you maybe God might be using you in ways that others haven't seen and so they will be the first to rise up against you telling you that you aren't of God but don't let that discourage you remember you're not doing this for them you're doing this because you feel a calling that's bigger than yourself persecution is not a sign of weakness it's a sign of strength when you're called by God you'll have the strength to face whatever comes your way you'll have the courage
to stand by your beliefs even when others don't agree with you in fact if in your calling you don't face persecution you should really be concerned because everyone called by God will experience some level of persecution sign number seven Divine dreams and Visions God can tell you through dreams and visions that he has called you for instance you might dream and see yourself preaching to a large crowd or leading a crowd in praise and worship this is an indication that God is calling you into service you might also find yourself regularly having dreams of men
of God preaching to you this means the spirit of God is ministering to you or you might even dream of seeing Angelic visitations or you find yourself performing miracles in the dream all these are indications God has chosen you number eight hatred for Injustice when God calls you this will cause you to have a hatred for Injustice and unrighteousness when you have such a strong conviction you will feel compelled to stand against evil in many cases God will want you to Advocate on behalf of others who cannot do so themselves this will involve standing up
for the voiceless or speaking out against oppressive people you will be moved by a desire to protect and defend those who cannot fight for themselves you will even be willing to take risks in order to Champion the cause of righteousness and speak out against unrighteousness sign number nine you will be God conscious one of the key ways you will know that God has called you is that you will become very god-conscious you will have a constant sense of God's presence around you and in everything you do you will constantly keep thinking of God's opinion about
it this means that you will no longer do things independently as you used to do before it means that you will be constantly aware of God's presence around your life and will always seek to align your thoughts and actions with his will when you will be less concerned about your own desires and wants and more focused on serving the greater good and doing what is right in God's eyes you'll weigh your options more carefully and consider how each choice aligns with God's plan for your life you also find that your relationships with others are impacted
