Created for an eternal purpose!

Image
by Yvette van Niekerk I believe I have been created for an eternal purpose. Ephesian 2: 7 - 10 MSG Now God has us where he wants us, with all the time in this world and the next to shower grace and kindness upon us in Christ Jesus. Saving is all his idea and all his work. All we do is trust him enough to let him do it. It's God's gift from start to finish! We don't play the major role. If we did, we'd probably go around bragging that we'd done the whole thing! No, we neither make nor save ourselves. God does both the making and saving. He creates each of us by Christ Jesus to join him in the work he does, the good work he has gotten ready for us to do, work we had better be doing." After Adam and Eve's sin, we were given a second chance in life, through the Lord Jesus Christ. To be re-created spiritually. I believe I have been created for a purpose. If so, how will I live my life? I believe God wants me to build my life upon His Word, the Bible. I have been...

But that's nothing compared to what's coming, for you've also spoken of my family far into the future, given me a glimpse into tomorrow, my Master GOD! What can I possibly say in the face of all this? You know me, Master GOD, just as I am. You've done all this not because of who I am but because of who you are - out of your very heart! - but you've let me in on it. "This is what makes you so great, Master GOD! There is none like you, no God but you, nothing to compare with what we've heard without own ears. And who is like your people, like Israel, a nation unique in the earth, whom God set out to redeem for himself (and became most famous for it), performing great and fearsome acts, throwing out nations and their gods left an...

What's your vision?

 by Yvette van Niekerk Ezekiel 8: 4 "According to the vision that I saw." In God's Word, we read "calls those things which do not exist as though they did." Romans 4 verse 17. I read that visions pains the target lights a fire within you and draws you forward. Would you agree on this point with me? What is your burning desire? What are you pursuing right now?  Do you have obstacles, opposition, roadblocks and resistance in your life? How can you overcome all these issues you may be facing right now? I'm sure that when we speak to the Lord, God He will help us. He's in control over each and every person's life. Do you remember Esther's vision she said that "if she perishes, then she perishes?" Esther 4 verse 16. We all know she didn't perish, she saved her people, she was willing to die for them. Are you? If you want to fulfil your vision you must do the following: measure yourself, and write down your vision.  Prayer Lord Jesus, hel...
