"We are most alive when we are doing what we were born to do" In other words ,death is evident when we cease to perform our God ordained purpose.Genesis 1:26-28 ; Psalm 135:15-18 ;Isaiah 55:2 ;John 15:5 ;John 14: 12-14;John 8:29; Esther 4:13-14;Ephesians 4:16
Dear Friend,
God has appointed every one of us to a chief place in the kingdom to be fruitful. He intended for us to be fruitful in every area of our lives for us long us we remain fitted in our rightful place and doing His will. Whenever we cease from performing our God ordained purpose we are merely existing and not living. This can be summed up in the words of Bishop Shelton Bady, "We are most alive when we are doing what we were born to do."
The hen will do better to lay eggs than to milk as a cow. On the other hand, men will do better being men than to be women .In other words you are placed where you are by God for paramount performance. We live better and enjoy life better if we stay in our God ordained place and finish our assignment. We will be blessed and fulfilled and others will be blessed by our faithfulness too.
Sometimes we become so occupied with daily rigors of the day we allow our purpose to slip into oblivion. He did not intend for us to be consumed by our needs. As a matter of fact He instructed us to seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all the things we naturally need ,will be added automatically. Psalms 55:2 indicates that there is something more precious to pursue in life than to amass wealth. The most precious things to pursue are the things of God and to accomplish our God ordained purpose in the ordained place. Jesus came to give us life to the full
In order for us to fulfill our God ordained purpose. There is no time for retreat. He did not say we should serve our purpose until we become offended or tired. Since we are on the battle field as members in the army of the Lord, we have to gird our loins and be ready to stand till we fulfill purpose in the ordained place. We do not have to leave our place ,because someone made us upset? Which ever place God has appointed for you to fill, He makes grace available for you to be fruitful. Don’t be distracted by setbacks for they are meant for you to overcome and flourish.
Joseph knew very well of God’s faithfulness and did not give up even when he was wrongfully accused. He knew that God placed him for a paramount performance which was, to preserve the lives of many including his ‘mean’ brothers. Esther fulfilled her purpose in delivering the Jews from the hand of Haman. If she had allowed fear to grip her ,she will not have utilize the grace of God available to her to fulfill that purpose and the Jews will have faced severe challenges.
If everyone stays in their place for paramount performance, there will be growth in the body. Each one of us will participate to meet each others' needs and thereby make every one fulfilled and flourishing. All needs are not monetary. We have a need for significance, to love and to be loved. Therefore when we perform our God given function the love of God is shared abroad to every one.
