MEMORISE
For David, after he had served his own generation by the will of God, fell on sleep, and was laid unto his fathers, and saw corruption: – Acts 13:36
READ: Isaiah 46:10-11
10 From the beginning I predicted the outcome;
long ago I foretold what would happen.
I said that my plans would never fail,
that I would do everything I intended to do.
11 I am calling a man to come from the east;[a]
he will swoop down like a hawk
and accomplish what I have planned.
I have spoken, and it will be done.
Open Heaven Monday 30th June 2025 – MESSAGE
Before you were born, there was a specific task that God had earmarked for you as an individual. Jeremiah 1:5 made this clear: Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.
God placed you in the family you were born into for a purpose. He put you where you can fulfil His original purpose for your life. I pray that God will speak to you concerning your purpose and why He has put you in the family you were born into.
Everyone has a specific purpose for which they were born into a family, state, and country. For example, in Exodus 3:1-12, God specifically told Moses, “Your purpose is to bring my people out of Egypt to come and worship me on this mountain.” In Joshua 1:1-8, God told Joshua that it was his assignment to divide the land among His people. In 1 Kings 19:19-21, He let Elisha know, “What you have been doing thus far is farming, and you are doing well, but the work I have for you is to be my prophet.”
When you stop focusing on money and you begin to do what God put you on the earth to do, you will not only get money, but you will also get much more than that. When Elisha took an early retirement from farming and became a prophet, the result was found in 2 Kings 4:12-13. He became so influential that he could say to the Shunammite woman, “Do you want me to talk to the king or the commander-in-chief for you? Whom do you want me to talk to for you?” You must trust God that He will not put you in this world to suffer. Once you have discovered His purpose for your life, start walking in it because that is how you can find fulfilment and all-round joy. He said in Jeremiah 29:11:
For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.
It is God’s will that you should know His specific purpose for your life and walk in it. If you are yet to know His purpose for your life, go before Him in prayers today and ask Him. He will reveal it to you and give you the grace to
PRAYER POINT:
Father, show me Your purpose for my life and help me never to stray from it, in Jesus’ name.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR
Proverbs 1-3
HYMN 10
IN CHRIST ALONE
1 In Christ alone my hope is found;
He is my light, my strength, my song;
this Cornerstone, this solid ground,
firm through the fiercest drought and storm.
What heights of love, what depths of peace
when fears are stilled, when strivings cease;
my Comforter, my All in All;
here in the love of Christ I stand.
2 In Christ alone who took on flesh;
fullness of God in helpless babe.
This gift of love and righteousness
scorned by the ones He came to save;
’til on that cross as Jesus died
the wrath of God was satisfied;
for ev’ry sin on Him was laid;
here in the death of Christ I live.
3 There in the ground His body lay;
Light of the world by darkness slain.
Then bursting forth in glorious day,
up from the grave He rose again!
And as He stands in victory,
sin’s curse has lost its grip on me;
for I am His and He is mine,
bought with the precious blood of Christ!
4 No guilt in life, no fear in death;
this is the pow’r of Christ in me.
From life’s first cry to final breath,
Jesus commands my destiny.
No pow’r of hell, no scheme of man
can ever pluck me from His hand;
’til He returns or calls me home,
here in the pow’r of Christ I’ll stand!
