TEXT: John 10:1-5
[1]Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.
[2]But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.
[3]To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out.
[4]And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice.
[5]And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers.
TOPIC: KNOWING GOD’S PURPOSE FOR YOUR LIFE (3)
The purpose of God is the mind of God for you while on earth. It is the reason behind your existence. To get to know the mind of God for your life, you have to have an intimacy with God. Without a deep relationship with God, it is hard for you to discern his will and mind for your life. Others may tell you this is what God is saying for your life but you need constant direction to fulfill purpose. Purpose may be discern but it takes your acquaintance with God to fulfill it.
The Scripture says the sheep hear the voice of the shepherd, the shepherd knows them by name and lead them out. The journey of purpose requires you walking with the LORD steadily, knowing his voice and total obedience to it. You can’t walk alone to fulfill purpose. You need God to order your steps and instruct you the way you should go. To know God’s purpose, you have to ask him his plans and thoughts about you . Knowing his plans is not enough but willingness to obey him completely as he leads.
Prayer: Father help me to walk in your plans for my life in Jesus name
