WINNING EACH DAY DEVOTIONAL

2 Cor 2:14 And thanks be to God who ALWAYS causes us to triumph...

CREATED FOR A PURPOSE.

Sept 13, 2013

MEMORY Verse: Ephesians 2:16 For we are God’s handiwork, His workmanship, recreated in Christ Jesus.

We are God’s masterpiece and regardless of the first order of creation, there is a recreation in Christ Jesus. Knowing and fulfilling our purpose is the most important assignment for everyone who has received the life of God.



There are certain things we must realize after receiving the life of God in us. The first is that we were all created for something: as Christians we are God’s deliberate intention. We are here on a purpose and for a purpose. “Every single thing created is to solve a particular problem thus, there is a certain problem you have been made to solve. We have the life of God which is a major tool for accomplishing God’s purpose for our lives.



We must also know that God created us for good things. We are saved, not by our good works but by Christ, to accomplish good works.



We were ordained before we were born: Our destiny cannot be determined by our parents. Therefore, parents should seek God’s purpose for their children and direct their children accordingly.

Before God created us, He already called us to do something. We existed in the mind of God before now. Isaiah 49:1-5 speaks of the unformed substance and reveals that God knows our spirit man before we were formed in our mother’s womb.



Our purpose in life is not our decision but a discovery we make. There is nothing you have ever been through that hasn't been a rehearsal for your future. Purpose precedes creation and after creation understanding of purpose is inevitable.



PRAYER: Lord I receive fulfillment to every purpose I have.
