Essentiality of Purpose-23rd essential on the pathway of success.How to ride high in life.


Jer 1:5

Incidences and Realities of life:

We fail because we don't know how to pass. You can go through life a failure, because you didn't know how to pass. It can take you all years to make it

We pass because we know how to pass.

Ten subheadings
1. Our God is a God of purpose. He never does anything without having a purpose John 3:16
1 John 3:8-son of God was manifested
Heb 2:14-15(he might destroy the one who had power of death)
Gal 1:3-5...he gave himself for a purpose

2. Everything God made was made for a purpose -Prov 16:4...he made all things for himself ...even the wicked ; he made the devil for a purpose (he needs someone to do his examination for him) God will prepare u for his exams then he will exam u so that when u pass u are promoted Rm 9:17(Pharaoh was made to destroy him); Rm 9:20-24...God made some vessels unto honour and some unto dishonour

3. Some people never discover Gods purpose for their life-they live and die without purpose. They live a life of failure Hosea 4:6(my people perish for lack of knowledge); Prov 29:18...(where there is no revelation people cast off restraint)

4. When the purpose of a thing is unknown abuse of that thing is inevitable - u kill a cockroach because we do not know it's purpose. Ants can cure leprosy. (Abnormal use-abnormal use...there must be a normal use. Counterfeit and original) Esau Gen 25:29-34...first born is to have a double portion of fathers inheritance ...

5. When a person fails to achieve a purpose of honour -
3 things will happen to him:

a; he's set aside

b; he will be replaced

c; he will now use him as a vessel of dishonour...
King Saul...Tall handsome and humble(1Sam 8) ...1 Sam 15:16-23...(he preserved bounties for himself)  he led people for sometime . He became proud and began to do stuff outside Gods purpose for his life. 1 Sam 16:13-14...the moment David was anointed an evil spirit came to Saul. First king to become a lunatic!!
