Diji Isaac Purpose

Million of people are born into the world, they eat sleep wake up grow fat or tall, sleep wake up look for how to eat, make some money buy food eat, sleep and wake up again day in day out.

After pondering over this scenario one preacher called Kind Solomon said its all vanity, life is vanity upon vanity, he was definitely confused as many people are today, but what you might not know is that, he has lost touch with his maker as at this time, he was black sliding and has become a God unto himself. And when ever God gives you up, you loose a sense of purpose. King Solomon was so lost in his quest for wisdom that he started worshiping strange Gods. He couldn't remember that God has an agenda to redeem mankind through the linage of David and he, Solomon was born to fulfill part of that purpose of God.

May be you are one those great men walking in the face of the earth, and you can't seem to get a grip on the reason you were born, and you are asking what is this life all about?

Relax you are not alone in this train of thought, of the seven point five billion humans on the face of the earth today those who know for sure what their life is all about are not up to (20%) twenty percent.

WHY YOU MAY ASK
The reason is since man fell through the sin of Adam, connecting with his maker has been a uphill task.

Let me start by saying, a product can not tell the purpose of his existence or why it is fashioned the way it is, except you ask the manufacturer.

Ask a car, what is the purpose of your existence, it won't know except you talk to the manufacturers say TOYOTA . They will be able to tell you, why the car was built, the system configurations and so on. They usually put a manual for anybody who buys it, for you to consult with anytime the car has a problem.

In the same vain, ask a man why he was created, he may not be able to tell you precisely why he was born, except you consult with his maker God.

He is the only one qualified to tell you why he created men and what man could do. And for us (God) has equally given us a manual that will tells us exactly why he made man. This manual is hereafter called bible,( Jeremiah 10:23)

So through insights from the scriptures and strides of men and great men, who have gone ahead of us plus the wisdom and revelation of God in us. We shall attempt to point you in the direction of what the manufacturers intended when he made you, and put you on the face of the earth.

Your personal answers to the proceeding questions will definitely help you determining the purpose of your life.

King Solomon was so lost in his quest for wisdom that he started worshiping strange Gods. He couldn't remember that God has an agenda to redeem mankind through the linage of David and he, Solomon was born to fulfill part of that purpose of God.

You would have noticed that you have what we call internal conversation. You are talking to yourself by yourself.

Me, myself and I the trycotomous nature of man, me (my body or senses) myself (emotions will & mind/soul) and I (my relationship with God( spirit, my intangible self).

So engage the three of you in answering the questions we are putting forward to you and when the three of you agree after many conversations and there is peace in your inner self, then you have the right answer.

1) WHO AM I - ANSWER

2) WHY AM I HERE - ANSWER

3) WHAT AM I DOING HERE - ANSWER

4) HOW DID I GET HERE - ANSWER

5) WHERE AM I GOING FROM HERE - ANSWER

This calls for somber reflections when you finish this exercise, is then, you will have a fair idea of who you are.

Lets go further and more deeply into this issue of great self discovery. What is your prophesy? What were the circumstances surrounding your birth? What names did your parents give you at the joy of your arrival on the face of the earth.

We see in the bible Zachariah named his son John (the forerunner) Joseph and mary calling their son Jesus, meaning he shall save his people, or Emmanuel, God with us. I was called, Good family, by my parents, now I do family relationships seminars. Am fulfilling prophecy.

So if you have a spiritual parents, there must have been a prophesy surrounding your birth, that could be a pointer to what you are born to do.

DREAMS AS A TEENAGER
What dreams were vivid in your heart as a young boy/girl growing up as a teenager that even now you still remember though vaguely those early years of your life.

In the bible we see Joseph a young boy having dreams of his entire household bowing down to him; even though it didn't seem possible at that time.

At age (12) twelve Jesus was lost about his fathers business, talking to doctors and lawyers of his generation when his parent found him asking him where he has been he said didn't you know that I will be in my father's house so what fascinated you so badly of age twelve – eighteen that should be a pointer to what you were born to do.

RAW TALENTS
What do you accomplish effortlessly and sometimes you don't even know how you were able to accomplish that you even surprise yourself in that endeavour.

And you get is right all the time that even your friends can testify that when is comes to the one issue you are the man/woman for the job, and they call you an enigma.

ENERGIZERS
What energizers you? Normally, when you are tired and you are called upon to do something you would say, I will pass, you guys go ahead, am too tired but there is this one THING that you are never too tired to accept it challenge. Think about it

So what is it in your life that gives you such a tremendous boost of energy whenever it arises?

For example, when a man is called by GOD to be a preacher he may have been working all day was just at home. All of a sudden he is given audiences who want him to explain one or two issues of the scriptures.

All of a sudden the tiredness jumps out of the window and he fills very fresh preaching the word of God to his audience.

So what is it in your life that gives you such a tremendous boost of energy whenever it arises?

WHAT SATISFIES YOUR STOMACH THAT IS NOT FOOD
we heard, the computer whiz kid Bill Gates sometimes will be working on his computer, and the mother will call out to him to come for his meal and he will reply, mum I want to be left alone I am not hungry.

In the bible we see Jesus in John 4 evangelizing the woman at the well and the disciples brought food and asked him to come and eat, but he wasn't hungry after a long journey and the disciples asked, has any one given him food to eat, Jesus answered and said I have food to eat that you don't know about, my food is to do the work of him that sent me and to finish his work, pointer!

When you have so much pleasure doing something that it fills up your appetite like food, that should tell you that may be this is the reason you were born because it means so much to you than your necessary FOOD.

TIME FACTOR
Next is time, our time is precious, as a matter of fact somebody said “time is the currency (money) that God has given us” what stuff are you will to spend your time doing without caring, or worrying about time loss?.

Whatever you spend time doing regardless of how much time you have to waste, is an indicator of what your life is all about.

THOUGHT PROCESS
Where is your heart, what do you think about all the time, you are what you think most of the time, the bible puts it this way, in the book of proverbs as a man thinketh in his heart so is he.

The issues of your life proceed from your heart (innermost being) whatever is constant baldging into your thought process is an indicator of what you were born to do.

If all the Jobs in the world attracted the same salaries, which one will you choose if money is not a problem. So many people have chosen the wrong job careers because of the benefit attached but the bible says labour not to be rich.

JOB
If all the Jobs in the world attracted the same salaries, which one will you choose if money is not a problem. So many people have chosen the wrong job careers because of the benefit attached but the bible says labour not to be rich.

These people find that they struggle all the way, right from getting out of bed, facing the day and facing a job they love to hate but have no choice but to do it.

To be continued in the next edition.
