What is life about anyway?

THE ULTIMATE GOAL FOR THE UNIVERSE IS TO SHOW THE GLORY OF GOD!

WHEN ANYTHING IN CREATION FULFILLS ITS PURPOSE, IT BRINGS GLORY TO GOD!

Jeremiah 29:11 (AMP)
For I know the thoughts and plans that I have for you, says the Lord, thoughts and plans for welfare and peace and not for evil, to give you hope in your final outcome.

FINDING YOUR PURPOSE:

• IT ALL STARTS WITH GOD.   (The purpose of your life fits into a much larger purpose that God has designed.)
• YOU ARE NOT AN ACCIDENT. (You are alive because God wanted to create you!)
• WHAT DRIVES YOUR LIFE?  (Knowing your purpose gives meaning, simplifies, focuses, energizes your life, and prepares you for eternity.)
• MADE TO LAST FOREVER. (This life is not all there is: This life is preparation for the next.)

The Father created you for a purpose.  You are to grow in grace, be filled with good attributes that represent the Lord Jesus Christ, declare to others what He has done for you, and worship Him and give Him Glory for who He is!

2 Peter 3:18 (KJV)
But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forever. Amen.

Philippians 1:11 (KJV)
Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.

Psalm 96:3 (KJV)
Declare his glory among the heathen, his wonders among all people.

Psalm 29:2 (KJV)
Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name; worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness.

Psalm 57:5 (KJV)
Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; let thy glory be above all the earth.

YOU BRING GLORY TO GOD BY:

• GETTING TO KNOW AND LOVE HIM: Worship is a lifestyle of enjoying God, Loving Him, and Giving ourselves to be used for His purpose.)

• LEARNING TO LOVE OTHER PEOPLE IN GOD’S FAMILY: Fellowship…be part of the family.

• BECOMING LIKE CHRIST: The more you develop Christlike character, the more you will bring Glory to God.

• SERVING OTHERS: God wired everyone to have a ministry or serving niche. The way you are wired is not an accident.

We are created with the freedom to choose what we will do with our life!  We can live for our pleasure, to please others, to be applauded, successful, and many other things.

Or we can choose to live a life of Glory to Almighty God in all we do and that is the Best Life!

The enemy will try to pull us to the world system of living by declaring that to serve Jesus Christ is confining when actually it is more freeing that we could every imagine.

Giving ourselves to live in our purpose brings great Peace, Joy, and Security from the Creator God and brings His Kingdom to earth!

“WHO ARE YOU GOING TO LIVE FOR-YOURSELF OR GOD?”

Father God I come in the name of Jesus and ask you to fill us with your purpose and the call to bring Glory to your name by being your hands extended on this earth.  Live through each of us and may our lives reflect all you are and bring your Kingdom to earth as it is in Heaven!   Amen

God Bless all of you richly, Love, MeMaw.
