Pastor michael todd grace8/7/2023 ![]() ![]() For the longest time I tried to seek purpose in someone. You will never understand your purpose if you don’t accept the place and why God has put you there before the person. I kept trying to find a purpose, denying the place where God has put me. Purpose: God reveals purpose in the place. My move here, was the easiest move, the bumps came after, but I had to acknowledge the place that God has now brought me to, of I didnt I would not be able to tap into my next pointĢ. I didn’t know I would ever come back to JHB, I didnt think I would ever get this job, I just applied as a matter of interest. What you think is a co-incidence is Gods PLACEMENT. ![]() Here is what I didn’t know is that God DESIRES to give you a place, he places you in a place where he knows his purpose can be fulfilled in your life. I thought that changing this all on my own, would give me a ‘sense’ of belonging. eg (2) moving in with a guy because I wasnt happy with my “sense of place” at home. ![]() Moving to JHB the first time, on my own accord, not knowing that it was glitter and not gold. I used to be so frustrated in the places that I would find myself. Place: I remember for the longest time, how I would always complain, about the place at which I found myself in. Now these next steps, I will never ever forget! I carry it with me every day, and it gives me hope that I would want to be no other, than for Jesus!ĥ Things God gives us, before the person– ARE YOU EVEN READY MAN!ġ. I used to look at a relationship and what it could do for me, instead of what God can do for me. And isn’t it just an awful feeling to be in someones firing line when you know, honey you MISSSSSING the target, but here I am getting hit! But when you are blind folded you will be shooting allllll over the damn place! Shooting into other people who are simply in the way, because you are so blind, you shooting all your arrows at the wrong places and at the wrong people. Now honey, I have haddddd targets, but they were” moving” targets ( smirk smirk), not FIXED targets! When you have a fixed target you know exactly where you are going to shoot. In order for your to have a goal, you need to have an AIM, but in order to know where we aiming at, we need to have a target. I listened to 5 minutes into this word and knew where I went wrong, so many times. You feel good and you are proud of this new journey in your life. When you enter into a relationship its like an achievement. When we enter a relationship, and LOL trust me, I have done this so many times, where I base my relationships on what the world says and not about what God says. This word got me like – honey I am still preaching it weeks later to random people at any given time! It does not just apply in a romantic relationship, but in all relationships. This post was inspired by a word I listened to on YouTube a few weeks back called ” Relationship Goals- Before the person” by Pastor Michael Todd. ![]()
