God, What Do You Want From Me?
Knowing and Understanding the thirteen basic foundational things that God wants from you.
Have you ever gotten to the point where you feel like, “Lord, I give up. I have heard all types of sermons from different preachers, read many books, listened to enough talk shows, and even took the advice of my best friends, but I still don’t know what you want me to do?” Trust me, I’ve been there. You hear things like, “You need to fast and pray more!” I don’t know about you, but it is tough to pray when you’re hungry to the point that you’re angry at everyone. We call it being “hangry”.
Or how about when you are so frustrated in ‘doing’ things that you are not even sure you are doing the right things to please God? I’m not talking about doing things hoping you will earn salvation or earn your way into the kingdom of God. I am talking about knowing the basic things God wants from us, which is common for every believer.
The Bible has all the answers you will need to know what God asks from you. This book summarizes the thirteen (13) things God asks from you. Most of them are intuitively known to you and need to be brought to your attention for clarity and better understanding. The remaining are probably revelations because you may not be actively doing them.
Remember this differs from the purpose God has planned for you. Each person on this earth has a purpose. If you want to strengthen your purpose in serving God, you need to know and learn these thirteen basic things God wants from you. Learning these things is the foundation that supports your purpose’s weight. If you don’t have a strong foundation or cracks, your purpose will not be stable. When you do these things, your purpose will naturally flourish because you know you are stable in God’s Will.
