Life Purpose

 

STUDY GUIDE

“Until your desire to become you matches God’s desire for you to become you, you will never become who God intended you to be”

How passionate are you to see God’s purposes come to fruition in your life?

How aggressively are you pursuing the knowledge of God and His will for your life?

How desperate are you to locate that for which your life
has been called upward in Christ (Phil 3:12)?

Are you “pressing towards the goal to win the prize to which Christ Jesus is calling you upward?”

You will never see your potential maximized until there is a grabbing hold of destiny in your heart. You will never become the you God intended until you get serious about knowing Him and knowing His will. Jesus said that “the violent take the kingdom by force”

(Matt 11:12).

This violence is similar to the aggressiveness of a baby in the birth canal that is ready to start living life. You have got to mean business about serving the purposes of God in this generation, and get your priorities in line if you want to find that life that gives significance.

Knowledge of Divine Intention

1. All of natural creation demonstrates an internal knowledge of divine intention (purpose). How do we know that? Explain.

2. Do you believe that God would create all of nature with an internal knowledge of God’s purpose and not place that within man? If so, why do you believe that?

3. What does Eden reveal about man’s place and knowledge of God’s original purpose and intention?

4. What happened that mankind lost that internal sense of purpose?

5. How is that sense of divine mission, or that revelation of God’s purpose, being restored to humanity?

6. How do you react to the statement that “God withheld knowledge of purpose from mankind so that they would seek Him?”

7. If God has a purpose for human life, He has a purpose for every extension of that life into society. What is God saying today about His purpose for:
