Created with Purpose

"For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do." -Ephesians 2:10

God CREATED you with Purpose.

Sometimes it is hard for us to believe that because we base God's perception of us on our perception of ourselves. We believe that we can only do so much, or that it is so much that we can do, we have no order within our life and no definite purpose, or maybe some of us feel as if we have a purpose, but we don't have what it takes to fulfill it. By far some of the biggest mind traps satan tries to use to stop us from getting to where God has for us to be. We were created in the image and likeness of God!!

Lets look at Moses...

He had some things that he did not like about himself. He felt that since he wasn't a great orator he could not speak with enough of courage or fluidity. God was even aware that his meekness would decrease to a bitterness of spirit, and He still used him. Our purpose has nothing to do with us, but everything to do with God. God stepped into the areas where Moses was the weakest and gave Him strength to complete his purpose. By the spirit of God, Moses declared for Pharaoh to free the Israelites, parted the Red Sea, and led the Israelites to their destined destination in that season. And He will do the same for you once you Trust Him. When God plants purpose inside of you it is inevitable. You will be used, it will happen, in HIS time. Know that the same grace allotted to Moses is given to you! Know that the same power that lives in our Savior, Jesus, and rose him on the third day, with ALL power, lives within you! If God created you, He did so for a reason. You carry a unique purpose inside of you that no one else can bring to this generation but you! Your purpose was destined before you were even born. Your existence is no mistake.

Trust God to walk on the balance beam of faith to reach your divine destiny.

Faith may challenge you to pray when you don't feel like it, or to even smile when it hurts, but God would never put more on you than you can bare. He knows what you can handle, and now, He just may be building your marvelous testimony. Are you letting Him, or are you harping on things that you don't like about yourself, or fears, or disappointments? It is hard, but something that God promised to do no matter what is be with us no matter where we are and love us forever. No matter where we may travel in our minds, locking ourselves into a prison and pushing out the love of God, He is still there. What a sweet revelation: That no matter where we may be spiritually, physically, mentally, emotionally, financially, socially, etc., God is literally right there! He will never leave nor forsake us. We were CREATED by God. CREATED for a very special purpose. CREATED to love God and the way He made us, so that love may overflow onto others. CREATED for His Glory!

Prayer:

O Gracious God our Father, Lord, You are an amazing Creator. I confess that I doubt your will and perfect plan at times. Thank you for looking past my weaknesses and filling every void in my life. I ask that you Continue to strengthen me as I press towards the mark of my higher calling. I ask right now in the name of Jesus that you reveal your plans for my life so that I may walk with a new hope. Amen and Thank God.
