Missions and the Call of God Mini Study

Introduction:  The Bible is clear that we are called first to God, and second to His service, but how do we know what that service is?

1.    What do you think is the difference in corporate calling and individual calling in scripture?  For example, we are all called to Jesus (Mt 9:13), but only some are called to Macedonia (Acts 16:9,10).


2.    What can you observe and conclude about God’s calling from the call of the following individuals?       
OBSERVE            CONCLUDE
Abraham (Gen 12:1-3)

Moses (Ex 3:1-10)

Isaiah (Isa 6:1-8)

Jeremiah (Jer 1:4-10)

Disciples (Matt 4:18-22)

Paul (Acts 9:1-19)


3.    What tools does God provide to help us discern our individual calling (His will for us personally)?

Prov 3:5,6

Prov 15:22

Isaiah 30:21

Rom 12:1,2

Eph 4:11-13

Phil 4:6,7

II Tim 3:16,17
       

4.    Psa 139:16 and Eph 2:10 speak of a design and destiny for our life.  How do you think this relates to God’s calling for our life or a specific decision in our life?


5.    We are corporately called to missions (Matt 28:19,20), but how do we find our     personal contribution in getting the Gospel to the ends of the earth (Rom 15:16)? 

Write out what you speculate or sense that call might be for you personally?
