A Test of Purpose and Heart

“But indeed for this purpose I have raised you up, that I may show My power in you, and that My name may be declared in all the earth.” - ‭‭Exodus‬ ‭9:16‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Your destiny will always involve a test. That test will always be aimed at whether you want to be a blessing or whether you merely want to be blessed. Because once you reach that test, God uses it to examine your heart.

Are you here for Him? Are you here for how He can use you for others? Or is this only about you?

Your value in the kingdom of God is found not in how much good you can get from God, but to what extent you let Him use you for the good of others.

One of the reasons God often doesn’t do much with His people is that they aren’t willing to be used by Him. What God is looking for are saints who have learned that their calling and purpose are for His kingdom, not their own.
