THERE IS PURPOSE FOR EVERYTHING [1]

THERE IS PURPOSE FOR EVERYTHING!

"Now Naaman, commander of the army of the king of Syria, was a great and honorable man in the eyes of his master, because by him the Lord had given victory to Syria. He was also a mighty man of valor, but a leper. And the Syrians had gone out on raids, and had brought back captive a young girl from the land of Israel. She waited on Naaman's wife. Then she said to her mistress, 'If only my master were with the prophet who is in Samaria! For he would heal him of his leprosy.'" 2 King.5:1-3.
I have come to understand overtime, that, there is nothing in life God allows without purpose, but not everyone walks in consciousness of fulfilling everyday's God purpose for their lives. Purpose precedes opportunity, and opportunity correctly annexed to suit a purpose brings fulfillment.

The joy of living is not basically on the amount of money you have in your bank accounts; the properties you greedily acquired, or the number of degrees certificates you have in your possessions, but how maximal you seize every opportunities that come your way to fulfill their designated or ordained purpose by God.

I first thing I guard jealously in every step I take or opportunities that smile at me is purpose. I don't get easily carried away by any opportunity once I'm ignorant of its true purpose. Nothing God does or permit by accident! As long as you are a child of God, the nitty-gritty of what happens to you is in His diary, either good or bad, and all of them work together for His good purpose for your life.

The greatest tragedy that can grip a man is to live without purpose. I mean, to lack purpose for whatever he does at a particular point in time. Otherwise such a man would be a waster of resource, and render his life a waste in the end.

I don't really believe in risk; rather I believe in clear understanding of what I do, and its true purpose. But where that is not available, I acts in faith. Faith is walking in total obedience to divine instruction in the face of some seeming impossibilities or obstacles.

Not every time God unfolds the details of His leading or our experiences to us, but as long as you are in tune with Him and ensure you're in consonance with His word or instruction, it is certainly for a good purpose and He will eventually reveal it and fulfill it.

God did not tell Abraham He wants to test him when He asked him to go and sacrifice his old age son on mount Moriah, but Abraham recognize the voice of God and act in obedience, and God eventually revealed the purpose why He suggested that and blessed him for his obedience(Genesis.22).

There are certain unpalatable situations we sometimes find ourselves in and you begin to question God's love and faithfulness, but if God should open your eyes to see what He's working out, you'd know is for His good purpose. Not every adversity is actually from the devil, sometimes God allow them for a specific good purpose He want to fulfill in your life. That's why it is dangerous to quickly jump to conclusion over some issues of life.

The major cause of poverty and mismanagement in our society today is lack of purpose. When the purpose of a thing is not well defined, the abuse will be inevitable. Every good purpose fulfilled enables you to serve a far greater ones.

In contrast, every opportunity to serve a purpose you abused will keep you far away from another greater ones and render you useless and irresponsible.

Certainly! Everyone has purpose for what we do, but not everyone truly understand what purpose is. Purpose is originated and determined by God. It is one thing that connect man with God on daily basis, as many as are willing to be fulfilled in life. If your relationship with God is not hourly bounded, it may implies that you are not really fulfilling. If your are not fulfilling your purpose in life daily, your eternity with God is at stake. Because, upon every opportunity that smiles at you to fulfill a purpose is a corresponding blessing and accountability on the day of judgment.

A friend of mine brother who works with a mobile company(MTN) recently gave him a token amount of money in support of our just concluded crusade, a week later they were privileged to meet, and he told that, "Bro! It would have pained me if I did not send the token I gave you for your crusade, you can't believe the joy that occupied my heart, that is the first thing I can point to significant to have achieved since the beginning of this year. Please am so sorry it was very small, but kindly notify me like a month earlier in case of next crusade." the man told him. You will need to witness the joy that occupied his heart when he was talking to him. Indeed, it pays to serve Jesus.

I'll be using the story from my golden text to buttress this message, and I believe you will pick your lesson their fragments and be richly blessed. Please watch out...to be continued later. Do have a lovely working day and don't forget, you are alive for purpose! Good morning.
