Nurse the Conviction
One thing God expects you to do with intentionality is to nurse the conviction He gives you any time He answers specific prayer requests made by you about situations or shows you what’s ahead of you.

God can do what men think it’s impossible. He can turn situations around for your good. He can change your standard of living from today. But do you believe He can do it?
God may have shown you glimpses of your future, how bright it is or will be. But when you compare where you are today and the beautiful imagination about your life in mind, you just cannot trace your path there. Let me encourage you: it is worth the wait. Grow through the process.
It may seem your life circumstances contradict what God told you to do now. But I assure you that, He will bring what He has said to pass.
Look to God to supply everything you need to fulfil your calling, both materially and spiritually (divine knowledge).
Child of God, be rest assured. God will clothe you. He’ll do it so well that you’ll be shocked. Trust Him to provide, even when you didn’t expect Him.
Fret not when you see challenges opposed to your calling. The Lord will perfect everything that concerns you. He will work things out for your good. In all your ways, submit to Him.
God is still in the business of turning nobodies into somebodies. He is still turning what the world regards as foolishness to confound the wise. Know that God won’t disappoint you when you put your hope in Him.
There’s no assurance that anything earthly you put your hope in won’t fail you. God is your security against shame, not your parents, job, family or connections. He is the ancient of days. He knows how to take care of you in unimaginable ways. Don’t lose hope in Him.
When you wake up, what do you thank God for? What burdens do you cast to the Lord daily? This world isn’t fair, and too many people say times are hard. Would you learn to watch in hope of the Lord?
God’s anointing is unlimited because Christ is unlimited. But His grace doesn’t flow through you to do what He has not called you to accomplish. So to conserve strength, you’ve got to give your time and attention to your specific calling, eliminating all forms of distractions as far as possible.
One of the rarest ministries in Christ is the ministry of encouragement. There are several preachers who preach to edify God’s people, but only a few ministers are called only to encourage others in the Lord from scripture.
