Now the LORD said to Abram, “Go from your country and your kindred and your father’s house to the land that I will show you. And I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you and make your name great, so that you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and him who dishonors you I will curse, and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.” So Abram went, as the LORD had told him, and Lot went with him. Abram was seventy-five years old when he departed from Haran. And Abram took Sarai his wife, and Lot his brother’s son, and all their possessions that they had gathered, and the people that they had acquired in Haran, and they set out to go to the land of Canaan. When they came to the land of Canaan, Abram passed through the land to the place at Shechem, to the oak of Moreh. At that time the Canaanites were in the land. Then the LORD appeared to Abram and said, “To your offspring I will give this land.” So he built there an altar to the LORD, who had appeared to him. From there he moved to the hill country on the east of Bethel and pitched his tent, with Bethel on the west and Ai on the east. And there he built an altar to the LORD and called upon the name of the LORD. And Abram journeyed on, still going toward the Negeb.

Finding your divine purpose does not have to be a mystery. Do you chase the question whether you are wasting your life in a certain job, relationship, or church? Most of us are deeply concerned with living meaningful, purposeful lives, yet we spend a lot of energy trying to figure out if we are. This plan is meant to help answer the question, “what is God’s purpose for my life?”
The child of God wishes to know his Heavenly Father’s will to obey Him and contribute effectively to the extension of His Kingdom on the earth. In this reading plan by pastor William Taylor, we will find the principles on learning how to hear the voice of God, handle fears before a big goal, surrender to His guidance, and fully enjoy the call of God upon our lives.
After discovering your God-given assignment, you become a target from the Devil and will be stopped very quickly if you attempt to do everything in your own strength. Therefore, we will never achieve our assignments without the Lord’s favor. In this Bible plan, Dave Hodgson will elaborate on the secret to attracting the favor of God and how to recognize when this favor has been applied in the marketplace.
Are you willing to fully trust God, even if it meant giving up your most prized possessions? Through the story of Abraham, we’ll explore the blessings that come with surrendering everything to God and trusting in His provision – and how the results of our obedience are far greater than anything we could hold onto.
