[DEVOTIONAL] DESIGNED FOR A PURPOSE by Apst. Obinna Kris Chinagorom

 DESIGNED FOR A PURPOSE.

The truth is that we are God's divine plan and not a victim of time as many people may say or have tried to define humanity. The truth is what the gospel said that we have a fight to fight and this fight is not physical but spiritual. Every child of God  is a star that carries destiny.

“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.”

Jeremiah 1:5 NIV

But now, this is what the Lord says— he who created you, Jacob, he who formed you, Israel: “Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have⁰ summoned you by name; you are mine.

Isaiah 43:1 NIV.

One mistake I have witnessed under the sun is men believing that the calling of God is like of men, God is perfect in all his works even before we were born he has finished everything about us till the end so nothing left. When God calls a man he is involved and committed to the end  but when it becomes man made that's when frustration and difficulties becomes a challenge. 

Calling of God is  divine and does not depend on skills or qualifications rather the calling  provides you the skills and qualifications required to execute your calling successfully so if  you notice that your calling is to serve others do it with respect and be foolish in the eyes of men and when you stupidly do what God called you for then you will see God's abundant blessings 

 

But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong.

1 Corinthians 1:27 NIV

Could it be that we are struggling or finding it difficult in our areas of calling because we are too wise to understand simple instructions, making us not fit for our calling. 

Who could believe that King Solomon as a boy was considered not wise until he asked God for wisdom, but truely for a child of his age to have asked God for wisdom shows that he is wise but refuses to settle on his own wisdom. 

May the Lord bless you as you meditate on this word. 

Have a blessed week ahead.
