Every
person under the sun has a purpose. God gave us all a reason to live, a reason
to wake up each morning and find strength, courage and will to get out of bed
and tough out the herculean task of our daily world. Question is why do you get
out of bed each morning? What motivates you? What is the source of your
courage, will and perseverance? In 1 Thessalonians chapter 2 Apostle Paul
revealed a hidden truth that all men have a drive and that drive needs be
discovered. He revealed his own drive. Which is drive to wake up each morning
and do the will of our heavenly Father, the drive of delivering his message to
the thousands of souls out there in the world, the drive of following up and
making sure those souls are nourished. This purpose of his, is a purpose of righteousness,
not a self-serving purpose, it is a purpose that fulfills the will of god. That
is why in all he does, he does not need to fear the dangers associated with pursuing
this purpose. He does not fear accident, he does not fear persecutions and
trials, he does not fear the unexpected and ultimately he does not fear death.
That is what a true purpose looks like. A purpose that sets you in sync with
your consciousness, a purpose that syncs you with the will of God that is the
purpose every man should seek to discover.
There are a few pointers I would love to
direct our attention to in discovering the ultimate purpose that links us to
our creator. A few factors that stands it out from a self-driven purpose:
1.
They must be transparency in your
purpose, it should be absent of guile, deceitfulness, and the immoral
2.
The concept of the purpose should have
its foundation resting on God rather than Man. The truths and principles that uphold
the purpose should be from the Bible, and not manipulated to please human
powers.
3.
The drive of the purpose should not be
to please people; the message of the purpose should not be to flatter people.
The purpose must not be focused on the material things of this world, through
the seeking of glory, fame and power.
4.
Every purpose should reflect calmness,
affection and an unbiased willingness to impact positively on your fellow
human.
5.
A purpose bearer, has to express virtues
that reflect the very purpose he or she represents
6.
No matter the tide that comes, your
purpose must be driven by moral principles, standards and guided through hard
situations not by your own knowledge but by the infinite wisdom of the Almighty
God.
Once a purpose reflects
all these at the primary level, without bias or manipulation, that purpose
automatically syncs you with God. Even as it does you will feel the connection
in you, the power and then you will understand that your true journey to enlightenment
has begun. The first step of which lays in your discovery of “The True Purpose”
