Everybody dies, just like we were all born. But now, you are still alive. Why? What are the things you are expected to achieve as your assignment on earth before you die? What is the major reason for your being on earth? Do you know them?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
God didn\u2019t create you for nothing. The fact that you’re alive today is proof that God has appointed you an assignment to fulfill. Without this divine purpose, your life would be meaningless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Every day we wake up, every bit of God\u2019s goodness that we experience, is a divine allowance to continue in the fulfillment of our God-given assignment. Without purpose, there is no true reason to live.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\u201cTeach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.\u201d \u2013 Psalm 90:12<\/strong>
\u201cO satisfy us early with thy mercy; that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.\u201d \u2013 Psalm 90:14<\/strong>
\u201cIs there not an appointed time to man upon earth? Are not his days also like the days of a hireling?\u201d \u2013 Job 7:1<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\nTo \u201cnumber our days\u201d means to live intentionally, investing every moment in what truly matters<\/em> \u2014 our God-given assignment.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Everything Was Made for a Purpose \u2014 Including You<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Every product in life has a purpose. A chair was made to be sat on, a bell to be rung, a phone to communicate. Likewise, you were created as a solution to a specific need on earth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you stumble upon an unfamiliar tool, you either ask its maker or wrongly assume its use \u2014 leading to abuse. Purpose must come from the Creator, not from assumptions or opinions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Just like in a carpenter\u2019s shop:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
- A hammer drives nails.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- A saw cuts wood.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- A tape measures dimensions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- A clamp holds pieces in place.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Each tool is defined by its purpose \u2014 and so are we. Our universal purpose as humans is to please God, do His will, and complete our unique callings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\u201cThou art worthy, O Lord\u2026 for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.\u201d \u2013 Revelation 4:11<\/strong>
\u201cEven every one that is called by my name\u2026 I have created him for my glory\u2026\u201d \u2013 Isaiah 43:7<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\nAlso read: Genesis 1:26\u201328, Micah 6:8, Ephesians 2:10, Romans 8:29\u201330<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
You Have a Unique Assignment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Just as no two chairs are designed the same, no two people share the same divine assignment. Your calling is unique \u2014 tailored by God specifically for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To discover it, you must go to your Creator. Friends, mentors, and even parents may have good intentions, but only God can reveal your true assignment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\u201cTrust in the Lord with all your heart… and He shall direct your paths.\u201d \u2013 Proverbs 3:5\u20136<\/strong>
\u201cCall unto me, and I will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty things\u2026\u201d \u2013 Jeremiah 33:3<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\nAlso read:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
- Matthew 7:7<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- 1 Corinthians 2:9\u201314<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Ephesians 4:7\u201313<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Psalm 32:8<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
In Matthew 16:13\u201317<\/strong>, Jesus asked His disciples, \u201cWho do men say I am?\u201d Only Peter got it right \u2014 because the Father revealed it to him. That\u2019s how purpose is discovered: by revelation from God.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brace Up! You Have an Assignment to Fulfill<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
You came from God\u2019s “factory” fully equipped. You don\u2019t need to reinvent yourself or try to be what the world wants you to be. Stick to what God made you to be, and develop it into His full expectation. If you don’t know it yet – that’s alright: go and ask God your Creator, let Him reveal it to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Don\u2019t let the voices around you distract you. Be God-centric<\/strong>, not people-centric<\/strong>. Align your life with His will and do all you can to complete your assignment \u2014 not for applause or approval from Men, but for God\u2019s pleasure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It’s Your Choice \u2014 Be Intentional<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
You could define life by your own ideas \u2014 many people do. But that\u2019s dangerous. One thing remains true across all generations: everyone dies.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Since you didn\u2019t create yourself or control your lifespan, you must submit to the One who did \u2014 your Creator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is in your best interest to live by His design and explanation for life. Don\u2019t gamble with your eternity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Get to Work! You Have an Assignment to Complete<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Your assignment is the reason you\u2019re alive. Don\u2019t waste your time chasing distractions engineered by the devil to derail your destiny. Joel Osteen said that everyday is a gift from God<\/a><\/em> – It is time that can be invested or wasted, so let’s put it to good use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Every second counts \u2014 invest it in fulfilling your God-given mission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We live in a distracted world. And unfortunately, we\u2019ve been conditioned into habits and mindsets that block us from discovering purpose. But now is the time to break free. Shake off the lies, and embrace the truth:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\nYou are not here for fun, fame, or fortune.
You are here to fulfill God\u2019s divine purpose for your life.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\nFinal Word: Live with Eternal Purpose<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Life is not a random walk. You were sent with a purpose, and you will give account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So now that you know this truth, what will you do about it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The time is now \u2014 seek God, know your assignment, and get to work!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Your life matters because your assignment matters.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
