3 Signs That God May Be Calling You
God’s calling is often beyond what we can understand

1. You’ve Uncovered Spiritual Gifts
God is dealing with people individually, so everybody has their spiritual path. Therefore, how you receive the calling for your mission could be different from how others receive theirs. However, there’s always a pattern designed for the people who God is calling.
You will eventually know you’re being called by revelation, but when you start uncovering spiritual gifts, that’s a sign God is calling you.
When you are called to a mission, you’re given spiritual gifts. These are divine gifts from the Holy Spirit that will manifest in your life. The gifts will run to you effortlessly and naturally.
Sometimes, because your gift becomes so natural to you, you may not notice it as a calling, but others will notice it. For instance, you could have been anointed to be a teacher or preacher of God’s word, but you don’t know it yet. Others may tell you what you don’t yet know.
Or maybe you have the gift of discernment. You could have the ability to perceive things that are not easy to be seen with natural eyes and others will see this about you.
Once you know your gifts and your calling, then you can step into purpose and do what you’ve been called to do.

2. You Have a Hunger for God
You will know that you are called if you have a hunger for the things of God – a hunger that other people do not have or understand.
When God calls you, you find that nothing else really matters. All you’ll care about is God and seeking his Kingdom. There’s a special hunger that can only be filled by the things of God. Sacred scriptures, prayers, good deeds, meditating on God’s words, fasting, etc. are all things a person does when they are hungry for God.
You are willing to give up everything for the sake of knowing God and serving humanity. You are willing to sacrifice time and resources just for the sake of doing what God has called you to do.
Also, you are more willing to chase or pursue the will of God instead of your own will. Plus, you are willing to be disciplined in all aspects of your life because discipline is a fruit of the spirit.
3. You’ve Received a Supernatural Calling
God’s calling is often beyond what we can understand. He chooses the time, place, manner, context, and means to express his will. Therefore, specific callings will look different for everyone. Sometimes you will be called in a way that feels supernatural.
Some people receive their calling through prophetic words or visions. You may receive yours through dreams or in different ways. There may be a passage in Scripture that gets your attention, and you can feel it is the sign. These things leave a deep impression on you. It’s not something you can shake or brush off.
God’s calling will mark you for the rest of your life. You will always be convicted of it until you heed that call. You can’t get away from it and you run from it. It will nag and tug at your soul.
A person may not always heed the call right away, but will be offered the same calling in many ways until one day they heed it.
You will not always have what you want just because you heed the call, but you will always have what you need. You will have joy, peace, and a certain satisfaction. You’ll feel fulfilled when you’re fulfilling your calling.
The most important thing about callings is that God calls all his people. Not just his people, he also calls those who will listen. He calls people to know him, have a relationship with him, and live for him. But ultimately, it’s our choice to heed the call or ignore it.
Before you were born, you were destined for your mission. If you feel called, it is time to begin your life’s work. All you have to do is heed the call and you won’t have to worry about a thing because when you heed that call, you will be given everything you need to finish what you start.
