God's Purpose for my Life
Have you ever asked "Why in the world am I here?" Everyone at one point or another question why they exist. This is God's pre-installed program in each of us to draw us to Him.
Paul told the Thessalonians that he was praying for them, that though God's power he may "fulfill every good purpose of yours and every act prompted by your faith. 12 We pray this so that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you, and you in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ." 2 Thessalonians 1:11-12
God has a purpose for every one of us. He has a plan for our lives. With God's power we could see his purpose fulfilled in our lives.
As we live out God's purpose for us we will dream of "acts prompted by...faith." We will want to do greater things for God. Paul prays that God would fulfill those things in the Thessalonian church. I'm sure Paul would want the same thing for each one of us today.
The one thing we must make sure is that everything we do is motivated by the desire of bringing glory to God, and not to ourselves. For Paul says "We pray this so that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you..."
May our prayer be "Lord, help me to fulfill your purpose for my life. Help me to dream big acts of faith for You, and glorify Christ in everything I do. Amen"
