God's ultimate purpose.

“My little children, for whom I am again suffering birth pangs until Christ is completely and permanently formed (molded) within you.” 
Galatians 4:19(AMP)

God has a plan for your life. You are not a mistake, you are not a waste. You are somebody special. You may say, “they said I will never become anything.” No, you will become what God wants you to be. He called you by His grace to reveal His Son in you.

This is God's number one purpose for your life. God wants to reveal His Son in you. He wants people to look at you and see Jesus. He wants others to see His nature and image reflected through you.

This purpose is in line with one of our commissions as a ministry which is, 'to raise a people who are like Jesus.' That's why our vision statement states; “As we preach the full message of this new life, our goal is to raise a people who are like Jesus, by exposing them to the influence of God's Word and His Spirit in an atmosphere of love, so that they may be able to take the Love of God, the Word of God and the Healing Power of God to every individual within their sphere of contact.”

His number one purpose for you is not to make you a millionaire, or to give you a house, but to reveal His Son in you. All the other things that you will need will come to you freely as consequences of the redemption. The primary aim of the redemption is for Christ to be revealed through you.

As a Christian, God wants Christ to be so revealed in your life in such a way that when others look at you, they see Christ. He wants others to see Christ through this unique personality of yours. Let Christ be revealed through you in every way. In your smile, in your speech, in your manner of life, etc. to the point that your life will be preaching the gospel.

PRAYER
Dear Father, I thank you for more of your grace is released towards me. I thank you because the character of Christ is revealed through my life and I am becoming more and more like you each day, in Jesus Name. Amen.

For further study read: 
Romans 8:29, Romans 13:14, Ephesians 4:11-15, Colossians 1:27-28.

DOING THE WORD
Consciously reveal Christ in your daily life because His nature is already in you.
