Discovering your Purpose in Life II

Friday 19 June
READ: Phil 4:8-9
MORE LESSONS: Phil 3:12-14; Rom.8:28

Sometimes you experience peace in doing certain things. Watch it, that could be an area God has carved for you (Jer. 1:5). A dream or vision lays heavily on your heart and you find it difficult to get it out of your mind-that could be your path to uplifting. Probably you have been dreaming of building a hotel or starting a manufacturing company or writing books; those could be the indicators of your purpose in life.
Another way is to identify what you are willing to give all your life to. God must be stirring you in that direction. Again, you may discover that people are willing to help you in doing something; they encourage you to take steps in a particular direction-either to pursue a certain career or do a project. That could be God urging you to take steps of faith that will usher you to your destiny.
In Gen.1:28, after creating man, God pronounced blessings on him one of which is that man should be fruitful, that is, to be 'seedful'. There can be no fruits without seeds and your seed is your purpose. Then you must discover your personality, who you are. Do you have a winning mentality? You must have determination to take over; after planting your seed, persevere to nurture it to fruition. Shedrach and his friends refused to compromise and they took over in a foreign land.
The next thing is to multiply-this requires wisdom which is the product of divine ideas and of supernatural mysteries (Eph. 3:10). Divine wisdom will locate you at the top and move you from height to height. To replenish implies creativity and innovation. Those who take over add life to their corners and thereby add values to life. Finally, subdue and have dominion, which means taking over. When you are purpose-oriented and creative, you become relevant and people will look for you.

Prayer/Action
* Ask God to give you divine ideas for supernatural victory.
* Ask God to put an end to any distraction and dust covering your divine purpose.
* Tell God to help you locate your purpose on earth and make you relevant in destiny.

PROPHETIC PRAYER
My Creator is great; He is the creator and possessor of Heaven and earth, so I cannot be small nor be a slave in life, in Jesus’ mighty name.
