Fulfill your purpose

“No, we neither make nor save ourselves. God does both the making and saving. He creates each of us by Christ Jesus to join him in the work he does, the good work he has gotten ready for us to do, work we had better be doing.” 
Ephesians 2:10(MSG)

In stressing the importance of purpose, I will like to tell you about a very popular minister. This minister who was about sixty years of age said, he found out that he was a failure, because he was not living according to God's purpose for his life.

Not living in God's purpose for your life will cost you everything. There is more to your life than just living everyday; eating, drinking and wearing cloths. Life is more than these things. Henry Ford said, if a man will find out God's destiny for his life, and follow it with all his heart, that man will be successful.

If you've truly found out God's plan for your life, put all your focus into it, and as you do, God will begin to give you divine influence. Mother Theresa was just feeding lepers, showing them love, and people like Bill Clinton who was President of America greatly respected her.

Mother Theresa was a woman of small stature, her purpose was to give love by feeding lepers and the poor on the street, yet she had influence with Presidents.

Have you taken out time to find out from God what is His purpose for your life? If it means fasting, fast till you get it. So that you don't get to seventy-eight and God tells you, “I called you to preach, or I called you to start a business.” Meanwhile, you have been a Civil Servant all your life.

The earlier you discover God's purpose for your life, the better for you, but if you've not found it, its never too late to find it.

PRAYER
Dear Father I thank you for a release of the Spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of God's plan and purpose for my life. I ask that I be empowered to fulfill my purpose on earth without reproach. In Jesus Name. Amen.

For further study read: 
John 4:34, 1 Corinthians 9:24-27, Philippians 3:13-15, Hebrews 12:2, 2 Timothy 4:6-8.

DOING THE WORD
Don't live for your own pleasure, live for His purpose, knowing that a great reward awaits you when you finish.
