Before we existed in our mother's womb, God was aware and right there He already have our purpose set apart.
He already knew how we will walk this journey of life, He knew about the detour, the mistakes, th down time, the victories and everything we go through.
He is such a great God that He will not force anything on us. Not knowing your purpose in life can be frustrating and to some people it might start building up the attitudes of a loser in them. They start thinking of quitting, start thinking of ending it all.
The truth is a man or woman of purpose does not quit. Even when the fight gets fierce and it seems like the end s near they dig into the reservoir which is through the power of the Holy spirit and they are empowered from within.
Matthew 26:39
And going a little farther he fell on his face and prayed, saying, “My Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as you will.”
Matthew 26:39 ESV
https://bible.com/bible/59/mat.26.39.ESV
And after going a little farther, He fell face down and prayed, saying, “My Father, if it is possible [that is, consistent with Your will], let this cup pass from Me; yet not as I will, but as You will.”
Matthew 26:39 AMP
https://bible.com/bible/1588/mat.26.39.AMP
It may sound as if Jesus was about to quit here but if you read that verse properly and Allo the Holy spirit to enlighten you, you will understand that He was focused more on the purpose why he had to embrace the cup and that is why He said not my will but your will be done.
Quitting is never an option for a person with purpose ordained by God.
There are many leaders in the Bible that could have quit their assignments and resolve to faith but they didn't.
This is because they were fully aware of why they do what they do.
Purpose is a word thrown about for different reasons by different people but for a leader chosen by God, purpose is not just a word.
It is the fuel that is daily filled by the Holy spirit, the word of God and His presence that keeps you going until you achieve that which He called you to do.
You may wonder; is my purpose just within my service in the church or in Christian groups. It's beyond that for wherever the sole of your feet treads on....
I have given you every place on which the sole of your foot treads, just as I promised to Moses.
Joshua 1:3 AMP
https://bible.com/bible/1588/jos.1.3.AMP
I promise you what I promised Moses: ‘Wherever you set foot, you will be on land I have given you—
Joshua 1:3 NLT
https://bible.com/bible/116/jos.1.3.NLT
Why is God particular about the sole of your feet, you can't just achieve a thing or claim a place with just your head in it. Wherever the head needs to be, the feet must be at work.
Purpose is huge in everything we do and as we go about in life always remind yourself of your purpose here on earth. If you already know what your purpose is pursue it with everything in you. If you don't know it set time apart to ask God what your purpose is and He will reveal it to you
Don't live this life without knowing your distinct purpose of existence. God put you here for a purpose, He placed you in that family, that home, that country, that ministry, that community, that school, that place of work for a purpose. Seek Him and ensure you fulfill the purpose to the glory of God.
