WELCOME TO GOD FOCUS THIS MORNING

THE TITLE FOR TODAY’S EPISODE:  PURPOSE OF A BELIEVER

I have a deep question today, what is our purpose as a believer?  The word says we are made in the image of God. There is a purpose to our lives once we have become children of God. I want to cover the purpose of being a believer. We each have a unique calling to be fulfill in our lives. God will lead us into that particular path for our lives.

However, on a more general note, we all have been filled with the power of God for a purpose. I want to go into those purposes a little with you this morning. We were created to know God personally. We were made in the image of God.  He wants nothing more than to have a relationship with us.

Hebrews 10:22: Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, with our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.

James 4:8: Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded.

BECOMING LIKE CHRIST

Our purpose is to become more like Christ.  He desires for us to have unity of faith. He has equipped his body to have stability in him. We should know the truth and stand on it. It is not his wish for us to be tossed about with every wind of doctrine and deceit of man. We need to be more like Christ. He will empower us to do his will and fulfill our purpose.

Eph 4:11-15 And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, 12 for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ, 13 till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ; 14 that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting, 15 but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head—Christ—

Our purpose is to be witnesses and share the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ to the world. This is where most of our purpose lies in bringing glory to our Father and to lead the lost to Christ. This is every Christian’s purpose. We have different ways of doing this through our unique purpose, but it all works together for the glory of our God.

In summary, our purpose is to work with other believers to bring honor to the name of Jesus. To witness to the lost and point them to Christ. He has equipped the ministry with offices that will function to keep the body on the right path as we go forth and show the world God’s love. We are all called to love and to serve. That love and service means different things for each person. However, the results will work the purpose of God in the earth and bring unity to the body of Christ and salvation to the lost.

Until next time,

BE BOLD, BE BRAVE AND KEEP YOUR GOD FOCUS
