He caused walls to fall.
The Spirit clarified my understanding on something that was causing me great frustration. With receiving the revelation came even greater peace. God has called me to be who He wants me to be. My calling doesn’t need to be co-signed by any human being. I need to walk not as if I’m waiting on someone to give me something or to agree with what God said about me. I’m not even waiting on God to do something for me that He already did. The gifts He gave me came along with the calling when He spoke it. The gifts are evidence God has already placed me in the position He wants me to be in. I am simply to walk in what He has already decreed. Practical example if God called me to be a corner piece of a puzzle, me trying to fit in the middle of the puzzle will only cause me to feel frustrated. I won’t fit there because I’m not designed to be there. The corner piece is unique and one of a kind. There are three other corner pieces that share some similarities with me, like two straight edges, but none of the other three corner pieces share my straight sides. We may look similar side by side, but when the puzzle is put together, it becomes very apparent only I can serve the purpose of where I am called to be. Some may want to be the corner. Some may seek to keep me from learning I’m a corner. Some may try to cause me to get out of place or to quit and abandon my call. Yet none of these efforts can be successful the moment I realize who God says I am. So now that I identify with who I am positioned and called to be, I have no other choice but to walk in that calling: confident, bold, assured and strong. I wasn’t waiting on mankind or God. I was waiting on me seeing me how God sees I am.
In my personal journey of faith, I found it incredibly liberating to stop seeking validation from others about the path God has set for me. Too often, I felt stuck waiting for external confirmation—whether from friends, family, or even myself—to believe in my calling. But embracing the idea that God views each of us as uniquely indispensable, like a one-of-a-kind puzzle piece, transformed my perspective. This revelation helped me understand that trying to fit where I wasn’t meant to be only led to frustration and self-doubt. Instead, when I began to see myself through God’s eyes—not how I or others saw me—I was able to step confidently into my role. The gifts and talents I had always been given were clear indicators of my purpose, and they had been with me all along from the very moment my calling was spoken. There were definitely moments when others tried to discourage me or convince me to abandon my purpose, just as the obstacles mentioned by Dr. Vaughan. But once I realized I was positioned exactly where God wanted me, those external pressures lost their power. Walking boldly in this truth meant I stopped waiting for signs, approvals, or God to do something new. Instead, I embraced what He had already decreed, growing stronger in my faith and conviction. For anyone struggling with their sense of purpose or feeling misplaced, I encourage adopting this mindset. Identify who God says you are and where He places you, rather than focusing on opinions or waiting for human affirmation. It’s a powerful step towards peace, confidence, and fulfillment, knowing that your unique role is essential and irreplaceable in the grand design.
