Seeking to Serve God in your circle of influence for an audience of One.
Seeking to Serve God- Audience of One
Seeking to serve God entails cultivating a relationship with Him that matters most. It’s not about the platform you use, the followers you have, or how you behave. It’s about the condition of your heart in your relationship with Him. The closer you are to God, the easier you will serve Him better in your area of influence. You will forgive, obey and have a life of constant fellowship through prayer. To take the first step, take your eyes off yourself and focus on Him. Know where He calls you to serve and shine a light for Jesus on that field.
Join today’s conversation with me, Lisa, and my friend Shaunda, as we talk about the ways and benefits of serving God in your sphere of influence and serving Him to his glory as an audience of one. Since every believer has a purpose and mission, why not find yours and serve Him through it to His glory?
