God's Purpose For Your Life!

When we do not know the purpose, we misuse the things and there is a malfuction. Likewise when we don't know the purpose behind our creation, we misuse our lives and are failed to live the life in it's full meaning. So, it is very much mandatory for everyone to know the purpose of his/her existence.
Only a Creator can tell that what's purpose behind his creation.

In Genesis 1:26, we read that God created man with a difinite purpose; to rule, to domain, to govern, to infulence the whole creation with the image of God which was in him. A real leadership was given to man, that he should influence everything with the unseen heavenly culture, character, attributes and values. And control the things in heavenly prespective.

In Genesis chapter 3:6, "Eve saw the tree... and it was eye pleasing... it was desirable to make one wise." We read, both of them ate the fruit of that tree to become wise. Wise!? Wise for what? To impress others with the earthly tact & knowledge. They just missed the purpose of God in their life that "Man is not created to impress, but to influence others." The very moment we try to impress others we lose the true leadership; the power to lead others.

And this "Power to Influence" of man was suppose to be demonstrated through five different ways:-

1. Worship: God created man to have fellowship with him. Which also implies the man's worship towards Him. Genesis 3:8, Everyday God used to have fellowship with the man.
2. Work: A man is not a man if he doesn't work. Work was already assigned to man even before the crteation of woman, and even before the fall of man. Worship always includes work, "Faith without Works is dead". Man is created for the good works.
3. Cultivate: Man was created to cultivate the good fruits out of every good things God created in the garden. A fruitfull life. Genesis 2:15
4. Protect: Man given the responsibility to protect the garden of Eden. Eden was the extended colony of heaven, a place where there was the presence of God, a perfect peace & harmony with the heavenly culture & values. Man was to protect the dignity of heavenly Father and His values. Genesis 2:15
5. Keep His Words(obey): Genesis 2:16, man was created to obey his God. To follow what God says.

Today the world is facing a lot many severe problems e.g. terrorism, unemployment , corruption, recession, ecological-deficiency etcs...

If only man turns back to God and knows the original purpose for his life. The world can expreince once again the perfect harmony & pecae of God, which prevailed in the garden of Eden.

"Many are the plans in man's heart, but it is the Lord's purpose that prevails" -Proverbs 19:21
