Go out and train everyone you meet, far and near, in this way of life. Matthew 28:18–20 (MSG) Yesterday we introduced the fact that God has two purposes He wants to fulfill in your life. The first is your specific purpose, which involves what you do for a living, how you choose to spend your time, and how you help out at your local church. The other purpose God has for your life is one you share with every believer and it’s non-negotiable. It’s something Jesus Himself asked us to do in Matthew 28:18–20. We are to share Christ with the world. I find that many people focus only on their specific purpose without paying any attention to this shared purpose. The problem is that …
Un Propósito Específico en la Vida
Voy a clamar al Dios altísimo, al Dios que en todo me ayuda. Salmos 57:3 (DHH) Dios plantó un deseo en usted para vivir una vida con propósito. En realidad, Él quiere que usted cumpla dos tipos de propósito para su vida. Hoy discutiremos el primero: su “propósito específico”, que involucra sus dones y habilidades individuales. El Espíritu Santo lo lleva a hacer cosas en la vida, y usted puede confiar en Él. Él no lo llevará a un área que odie o una donde usted esté destinado a fallar. Por ejemplo, Dios no lo llevará a ser un baterista si no tiene ritmo ni lo convertirá en cirujano si no tiene interés en la medicina. Además, Él no lo limitará a una sola cosa. En realidad, Él ha colocado más …
A Specific Purpose In Life
I will cry to God Most High, Who performs on my behalf and rewards me [Who brings to pass His purposes for me and surely completes them]! Psalm 57:2 (AMPC) God planted a desire within you to live a life of purpose. Actually, He wants you to fulfill two types of purpose in your life. Today we’ll discuss the first one: your specific purpose, which involves your individual gifts and abilities. Holy Spirit leads you to do things in life, and you can trust Him. He won’t lead you to an area you’re going to hate or one where you’re destined to fail. For example, God won’t lead you to be a drummer if you have no rhythm or lead you to become a surgeon …
God-Planted Purpose
He also has planted eternity in men’s hearts and minds [a divinely implanted sense of a purpose working through the ages which nothing under the sun but God alone can satisfy]. Ecclesiastes 3:11 (AMPC) We all long for purpose. We want our lives to count for something, because God planted that desire in us. Because God planted this eternity-minded mission in us, it can only be fulfilled through Him. Although money and success are fine, they won’t fill this desire; neither will family or relationships. This deep sense of purpose isn’t even satisfied by giving your life to Jesus, although it is vital to follow Him. There are a lot of unhappy, purposeless Christians, which proves that just knowing Him doesn’t fulfill this need. We …
Propósito Plantado por Dios
Él, en el momento preciso, todo lo hizo hermoso; puso además en la mente humana la idea de lo infinito, aun cuando el hombre no alcanza a comprender en toda su amplitud lo que Dios ha hecho y lo que hará. Eclesiastés 3:11 (DHH) Todos anhelamos tener un propósito. Queremos que nuestras vidas cuenten para algo, porque Dios plantó ese deseo en nosotros. Debido a que Dios plantó esta misión de mentalidad eterna en nosotros, solo puede ser cumplida a través de Él. Aunque el dinero y el éxito están bien, no satisfarán este deseo; tampoco lo hará la familia o las relaciones. Este profundo sentido de propósito ni siquiera se satisface al dar su vida a Jesús, aunque es vital seguirlo. Hay muchos cristianos infelices y sin propósito, lo …
