15-February       Ask About Your Design

Isaiah 62:2-3  The Gentiles shall see your righteousness, And all kings your glory. You shall be called by a new name, Which the mouth of the LORD will name. You shall also be a crown of glory In the hand of the LORD, And a royal diadem In the hand of your God. (NKJV)

Believers often fear that they might miss God’s purpose by choosing the wrong job. Well, guess what? We can do nearly every kind of occupation and still honor God’s purpose for our lives. We’re called to bring God glory in whatever we do and to demonstrate how a life following God is radically better than a life without Him. So we can now stop waiting for some big light bulb to go on and direct us to a particular line of work. We can choose our work based on our interests, passions and gifts, and commit to serving God wherever we go.

Let’s just live in such a way that those who know us but do not know God will come to know God because they know us. There’s our purpose!

DECLARE THIS:
• I am an ambassador for Christ who makes His appeal to unbelievers through me.
• By faith I receive guidance and approval from God as I put my gifts to work for His glory.
• I intend to live my life in such a way that unbelievers will be attracted to the peace and joy that I have.
