Before I formed you in the womb I knew and approved of you (as My chosen instrument),
and before you were born I separated and set you apart, consecrating you;
Do you some times wonder what your purpose is or why you were created? Your Loving Father wants you know that you are not here by chance but here for a purpose. God knows what use to make of everyone before He makes him/her. To know what you are created for, you need to ask God. What God has designed you for, He will call you to and equip you for that purpose.
Before you were formed, He knew you and set you apart for a specific purpose. You will need to truly yield to Him to understand and achieve fully this purpose. He also has a plan for your life to achieve this purpose.
There might be some situations you feel should not be in the plan for your life. Rest assured today that God has not forgotten you. You are unique, special and chosen for a purpose. His plan is to bring you to an expected end.
Suggestions for Prayer: Thank God that you are created on purpose for a purpose. Thank Him for the plan He has for you. Pray for the grace to yield completely to Him, and not lust after the things of the world. Pray that He opens the eyes of your understanding to know the purpose for which you were created. Pray that God brings people or resources along your journey to help you realize who you are in Christ and how you can continue to walk in the confidence of knowing your purpose.
