The choice of the vessel to use for any particular purpose is typically dependent on the owner's preference, as well as the suitability of each to the assignment at hand. So also, the person whom God would use for any assignment must meet God’s basic requirements. After God locates such a person, He then equips him/her for the divine assignment.

Many Christians are not fulfilling their purpose in life and ministry because they have consistently refused the required training for their assignment, and because they are not found to be suitable yet, their commissioning remains pending. May the Lord wake you up to the reality of your situation today, so you can take your rightful place in the Kingdom of God in the mighty name of Jesus.

God’s preparation through the cross transforms a person’s mind, heart, will, and life such that he/she becomes aligned with God’s purpose.

“And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always have all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work.”
2nd Corinthians 9:8

People with broken spirits, dysfunctional families, health challenges, the poor, the demon-possessed, and the disenfranchised can all find peace and prosperity with God. This is the whole essence of Christianity and all it requires is our total submission to the preparation process. 2nd Timothy 2:21 says “If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master’s use, and prepared unto every good work.”

The Lord will only use the best – vessels purged (repentance and confession), as well as purified and sanctified.

God is seeking such a vessel; are you one?
