“And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time” (1 Corinthians15:8).
God had a reason for your birth. You’re not an accident, or a biological mistake. You didn’t come to this world by chance. Someone said, “My parents told me I was a mistake; they weren’t really planning for me to be born.” Yea, you may be “their mistake,” but not God’s mistake, for out of their so-called mistake came something good, and that’s you!
Your destiny in God began when you were born again. Now, you have life with purpose! You came to do His will; like Jesus, it is written concerning you in the volume of the books, you’ve come to fulfil the Father’s will (Hebrews 10:7). The Father’s will is for the message of Christ’s salvation to cover the earth as the waters cover the sea, and He’s counting on you to take it to the unreached.
You ought to have an excellent, wonderful, purposeful, successful and prosperous life. The Bible says; “Two cannot walk together, except they agree” [Amos3:3]. To walk in God’s will and fulfil His destiny for your life you must be in sync with Him. You must receive His life and nature by being born again. That’s when you’re awakened to the fatherhood of God, and you begin to understand your purpose in life.
When you understand the purpose for your life, things change, and by the help of the Holy Spirit you begin to see the best in you. Get to know who you really are. You’re not a nonentity; you’re more than a speck in the universe. You’re a child of God on a mission in the earth! God has a dream and vision for your life. As you discover His purpose for you and walk in the light of it, you and God become an unbeatable team.
Confession
I was born for a reason—to impact my generation with knowledge of Christ’s salvation. I’m on a journey of success, and no force can hinder me, for my life is for the glory of God. Hallelujah.
