Staying in Your Purpose

READ: 1 Cor.7: 20-24
MORE LESSONS: Phil. 3:7-14
Bible Reading in One Year: Leviticus 1-4

Grace becomes available when purpose is found. God endows grace on a man in the place of his purpose. And since a man cannot prosper nor make contact with heaven without grace, it means then that discovering your purpose is not only important for now but even for eternity. Y our eternity is tied to your purpose, and the moment you step out of what God has prepared for you to do, your eternity becomes jeopardized.
This is because when you are doing what God didn't design and wire you for, in the midst of it you will mess up. When you are functioning in your purpose, difficult jobs look so easy but without grace the easiest job on earth becomes the most difficult. God is not a waster of grace; He only gives you grace to do what He has sent you to do, not what He has not assigned to you. There is security and defense for a man inside his purpose. He might be going around in risky situations and be safe as long as he is pursuing God's purpose for his life. Please locate your purpose and don't copy another man's purpose because you may not survive what he is doing in his purpose. There is joy and accelerated promotion for a man inside his purpose. That is why the devil fights your purpose; he knows that life is easy if you find your purpose because everything you need is inside that purpose. You are dangerous to the devil in your purpose.
A young lady told me that God asked her to do something. She stepped out and saw everything God said to her coming true but she was also getting the greatest persecution, and so she wanted to quit and do something else. I told her to continue with what she was doing. If the enemy does not oppose a man's purpose what else do you think is his job? Purpose is the most fought battle on the face of the earth. When you are in the will of God, be prepared to get the hottest fight from the devil because he knows that if only you can stay in your purpose you become a threat to him. He wants to get you out of where you are defended to where grace is not available for you so that he can attack you when you make the slightest mistake.
Have you found something doing for God? Ask Him for grace for that assignment. Never be bothered about the size or type of the assignment, small or great, toilet or pulpit. Just ask for grace to fulfill God's purpose for that assignment. Don't get attracted to someone else's assignment, no matter how attractive it is. Abide in His grace and be a servant of Christ not a servant of your choice.

Prayer/Action
* Ask God not to hide your destiny from you. * Pray that nothing will be strong enough to distract you out of God’s assignment.
* Pray against every satanic confrontation targeted at uprooting you out of your purpose in life.
* Write down five possible threats to your life mission and in 30 minutes before the end of today pray against them.
