You Are Not Here By Chance

God had a purpose for you before you were ever born. You are not here by chance. There are so many scenarios that could have happened the day you were conceived, regardless of the circumstance, you were made in the image of God to glorify Him. He created you with a purpose.

"For this is the word of promise:" At this time I shall come And Sarah SHALL HAVE A SON."

And not only this, but there was Rebekah also, when she had conceived twins by one man, our father Isaac; for thou the twins were not yet born and had not done anything good or bad, so that God's purpose according to His choice would stand, not because of works but because of Him who calls, it was said to her, "THE OLDER WILL SERVE THE YOUNGER." Just as it is written, "JACOB I LOVED, BUT ESAU I HATED." Romans 9:9-13 (NIV) *Note: The capitalized words are what God said.

If you ever doubted you have a purpose please mark these verses in your Bible. If you don't know what you should be doing- ask God you show you through His word and in your life what He wants you to do. You're drawn to God and His word for a reason-you belong to God. Jesus died for you, now live for Him.

"And He did so to make known the riches of His glory upon vessels of mercy, which He prepared beforehand for glory, even us whom He also called, not from among the Jews only, but also from among the Gentiles." Romans 9:23 &24 (NIV)

Every child of God is a vessel of mercy. You must walk by faith, not just by sight, according to His purpose in Christ Jesus. Your life does not belong to you, all of Gods creation was created for His glory.

"but Israel, pursuing the law of righteousness, did not arrive at the law. Why? Because they did not pursue it by faith, but as though it were by works. They stumbled over the stumbling stone, just as it is written,

"BEHOLD, I LAY IN ZION A STONE OF STUMBLING AND A ROCK OF OFFENSE, AND HE WHO BELIEVES IN HIM WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED."

Romans 9: 31-33 (NIV)

Pursue Righteousness through Faith. Faith is a gift from God. Because of your faith you'll see God. Jesus is the Way, the Truth and the Light. No man comes to the Father except through the Son.

(Romans chapter 8 and 9 are chucked full of purpose for any believer! Read it slow and savor every morsel like a tender juicy piece of T bone steak, it will satisfy your hungry soul! :)
