Every man, woman, boy, and girl is born with an assignment, a purpose to fulfill on Earth. Just as the manufacturer determines the purpose of every product, we must understand and be convinced that we, as humans, are products of God. Our creator, God, created us to fulfill a specific purpose or assignment. Recognizing and embracing this purpose is a key aspect of living a fulfilling and meaningful life.
Creatures of Purpose:
We are not products of accident; God, the all-wise one, created us to fulfill an assignment here on Earth, and that assignment is crucial to Him. Understanding ourselves as creatures of purpose dispels the notion of randomness or chance in our existence. God, in His infinite wisdom, intentionally crafted each of us with a unique assignment. This assignment is not arbitrary; it holds significant value and importance in the eyes of our Creator. Recognizing the purpose God has for us brings clarity and meaning to our journey on Earth.
You are unique according to your purpose:
We are created differently based on our assignments, and the fulfillment of these assignments is the doorway to a life of happiness. The Bible, in Colossians 4:17, says, “… see that you discharge carefully [the duties of] the ministry and fulfill the stewardship which you have received in the Lord.”
Our uniqueness lies in the distinctiveness of our assigned purposes. Each person is fashioned with a specific task, and embracing and fulfilling this assignment opens the door to a joyous and content life. The biblical reference in Colossians 4:17 emphasizes the importance of conscientiously carrying out our duties, recognizing them as a divine ministry and stewardship entrusted to us by the Lord.
Fulfilling your purpose is your responsibility:
We have all been given a ministry (purpose) and stewardship (assignment) by God. It is your responsibility to fulfill your purpose and mine to fulfill mine.
Acknowledging our purpose is just the beginning; taking responsibility for its fulfillment is the next crucial step. God has entrusted each individual with a ministry and a corresponding assignment. It is a privilege and a responsibility to actively pursue and carry out the purpose designated for our lives. Just as we expect a product to fulfill its intended function, we are called to fulfill our unique purpose.
Our responsibility to the world:
This world cannot be a beautiful place without human beings fulfilling divine assignments for their lives. There is a God’s agenda for this earth, and we are an important part of it. Successful systems, institutions, and governments cannot be created without man – every house, according to Hebrews 3:4, is built and furnished by someone. So, we are the ones to build this world the way that God wants it to be, and that is possible by fulfilling our purpose.
The collective fulfillment of individual divine assignments contributes to the overall beauty and harmony of the world. Recognizing that we play a vital role in God’s agenda for the Earth motivates us to actively engage in fulfilling our purposes. The world requires individuals to actively participate in fulfilling their divine assignments to create a better, more harmonious place.
Playing your part:
We all have our parts to play according to our purpose. I can’t do your part, neither could you do mine. Embracing our roles and responsibilities involves acknowledging that each person has a unique part to play. Just as a well-functioning system relies on the effective performance of each component, the world flourishes when individuals fulfill their distinct purposes. Understanding and respecting the diversity of roles fosters collaboration and mutual support, creating a richer and more vibrant tapestry of life.
A reward awaits you:
There is a reward prepared by God for those who live their lives fulfilling His purpose, and you must not miss it. Living in alignment with our divine purpose brings not only fulfillment in the present but also promises a reward prepared by God. This reward goes beyond material or worldly gains; it encompasses the spiritual and eternal aspects of our existence. I encourage you to pray that God will open your understanding to maximize all He has called you into. Remain blessed.
