Let’s be honest, hearing from God in regard to direction of our calling can be really a confusing process.
The Confirmation Chart can you help you discern God's call on your life and help you to recognise the many ways He could be talking to us.

Discovering God's plans & purposes for your life
1.
2. God has given us everything we need to
perform His will
Hebrews 13:20-21
May the Lord…equip you
with everything good for
doing His will.
But what can you do
if you still haven’t
discovered God’s
will for your life?

4. Proverbs 16:9
In his heart a man plans his course
But the Lord determines his steps.
God loves to instruct and guide His
people
John 10:27
My sheep listen to my voice; I know them,
and they follow me.

6. God will always
call you to
something for
which He has
placed inside of
you the potential
skills, personality
and other
necessary
attributes.
Hebrews 13:20-21
May the Lord…equip you with
everything good for doing His will.
7. But let’s be honest,
hearing from God in
regard to direction
of our calling can be
really a confusing
process.
God places in each of us the potential
to meet our calling
8. God communicates in many
different ways –
reminder
God can equally communicates
through the more day-to-day
parts of our lives such as our:
• Abilities
• Personality,
• Deeply held desires
• And the advice that we
receive
• Many other ways…
9. We all need to carry L-plates! – a
reminder!
Because we all carry
L-plates when it comes to
hearing from God, there
is an important rule that
we must all observe.
Before we take any
action on what we
believe we are hearing, it
is essential for us to
receive confirmation
from a number of
different sources!
10. The Confirmation Chart is a simple tool to help you
discern the different ways that God can reveal His
will for our next move.
11. It’s good to build on existing qualifications, but it
could mean investment for you to return to college.

experience?
Experience underpins the certainty attached to your
decisions. It could also be time to extend your horizons
to gain what you lack.
12. Do you have a track record that proves that you have
ability in a certain area? Are your dreams realistic?
Each of us are wired differently, your God-given
personality will match your calling. Don’t be a square
peg in a round hole!
Known
ability?
Personality
fit?
13. What’s the match? Is this a now thing or a future
thing?
This is a BIG one! Like an holy itch between the
shoulders, a God-given heart’s desire will remain.
Present
Circumstances?
How much your
heart’s desire?
14. God can confirm through dreams, words, visions,
inner feeling etc. Be wise from whom you receive…
Simply ask for genuine and honest feedback from, close
others and colleagues.
Prophetic
confirmation?
Confirmation
from others?
When God asks us to do something, he will confirm this by giving us more than just one source to affirm his will. For example, if we feel that he is asking us to move into a specific job, this could be confirmed by a keen desire that is backed up by a natural ability, favourable circumstances facilitating a decision, and then possibly reinforced by prophetic insight. All of these factors will be looked at in this section.
The chart will capture a number of factors through which God could be speaking to us – creating a composite image of what God has planned for you. Just as using an infra-red image will only show you the red portion of light coming from a distant galaxy, concentrating solely on one factor to determine your career direction, such as what are my skills, will give you a similarly limited understanding of what God is calling you could do. To create a true ‘image’ of your calling, you need to consider a number of factors, which are found in the Confirmation chart.
