Stay where you were when God called your name. Were you a slave? Slavery is no roadblock to obeying and believing. I don’t mean you’re stuck and can’t leave. If you have a chance at freedom, go ahead and take it. I’m simply trying to point out that under your new Master you’re going to experience a marvelous freedom you would never have dreamed of. On the other hand, if you were free when Christ called you, you’ll experience a delightful “enslavement to God” you would never have dreamed of. All of you, slave and free both, were once held hostage in a sinful society. Then a huge sum was paid out for your ransom. So please don’t, out of old habit, slip back into being or doing what everyone else tells you. Friends, stay where you were called to be. God is there. Hold the high ground with him at your side.

Scripture says little about God’s will for you tomorrow, but a lot about God’s will for you today—namely, that you would simply obey and follow him. That truth brings tremendous freedom to decisions like where to work, which goals you pursue, and how to discern open and closed doors. Join me in this devotional plan as we explore 4 freeing truths about God’s will for your work!
Do you wonder what God is calling you to do? Most people don’t hear God speak from the clouds and point them to a particular career.
