God
is too resourceful to send you here without a purpose.
Nahum
2:13, Psalm 46:9
Silence
every voice speaking contrary to the purpose of God for your life. The Blood of
Jesus speaks instead; Loud and Clear!
7 POINTS TO NOTE
1.
You Were Created For A Purpose: Psalm 139:13 - 14, Psalm 51
Why
did a last born have to take care of sheep? It should have been the first born
but David was sent to take care of sheep. Perhaps David was a product of
adultery...
Anything
you did not get from your parents, you don't need it for your purpose. (David
didn't get love from home... perhaps he didn't need it for his purpose).
(Joseph's dreams would have haunted him like a
nightmare if he remained daddy's boy)
Every
challenge you're passing through is channeling you towards your purpose.
Ephesians
2:10
2.
You Were Chosen Before The Foundation Of The World: Ephesians
1:5, Romans 8:29
You
were foreknown and predestined.
3.
You Were Created For Impact, Not Fame: Judges
4:4, Luke 2:36
Deborah
and Anna were both Prophetesses but Anna commissioned Jesus.
It's
not the number of gifts you have, it's about what God called you to do.
Anna
was consistent in the one thing she was
called to do.
Deborah
might have been popular but Anna was impactful.
Success
is doing the right thing and doing it well.
Success
is fulfilling purpose.
4.
God Perfected Your Purpose Before He Started You.
A
product may be brand new when bought but it has been used; the manufacturer
will test the product before packaging it to ensure that everything he said it
can do, it will do. It was used, tested and perfected before being packaged.
(Unlike the products that we create as humans,
God put in us the free will to decide to do exactly what we are called to do or
not. A Tecno phone cannot decide to be Samsung phone after it is manufactured
and perfected but human beings can decide to be something/someone else)
(That person you see in the mirror, is the
perfect height, tribe, complexion etc for the purpose of God. If you're trying
to be like someone designed for another purpose, that is like a tractor trying
to be a sports car because it wants to be fast; that defeats the purpose it was
made for)
If God permits any persecution in your life,
it is because you have what it takes to go through it. (1st Corinthians 10:13)
Why
will you say "why me? why me?" if not you, who? When the glory comes,
will you not like to be a partaker? Stop wearing your problem on your face and
carrying it along like a handbag. Throw that problem away and move on; the
promise will meet you on the way!
Ephesians
1:13
God
has stamped you; a seal guaranteeing the product.
5.
God Is Committed To Your Success Because Of The Integrity Of His Name: Psalm
23:3
That
you have a zeal to serve God or come into his presence, it is simply because of
his name.
Companies
recall some of their products when a fault or defect is detected. They do this
for the sake of the reputation they have built over time.
God
is committed to see you succeed simply because of his name.
Isaiah
48:9
"For
His name sake" is a double edged sword. He may delay judgement for his
name sake.
6.
Cooperate With God's Purpose For Your Life.
Don't
mess with God's purpose for your life.
All
things work together for good to those who love God (not those he loves; He
loves the world) and are called according to his purpose. If you give yourself
another purpose, things may not work for you.
Don't
allow God get you blind like Saul before you fulfil God's purpose.
Don't
take grace for granted; you are not indispensable.
(Don't take grace for granted or you'll be
grounded)
7.
Start Now, Start Today; There Is No More Time.
Build
your spiritual muscle now that you have the time.
Fortify
your foundation before the building of your destiny begins to rise.
