 In the hustle and bustle of our daily lives, it's easy to lose sight of what truly matters. We often find ourselves caught up in a whirlwind of responsibilities, commitments, and distractions, leaving us feeling disconnected from our deepest desires and values.

Living in Alignment with Your Purpose.

Imagine waking up every morning with a profound sense of clarity and motivation, knowing that your actions are in harmony with your most cherished principles.

 Picture a life where every decision you make, from your career choices to your relationships, is a reflection of what God has shown you. 

"I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye.' Psalm 32:8 KJV

Living in alignment with your purpose is a transformative journey that can lead to a life of profound fulfillment and contentment.

To live in alignment with your purpose, you must first identify what your purpose is. 

I spoke briefly about what purpose is here.

Purpose as against what psychologists and motivational speakers say can't be found by looking inward but upward–unto God; the maker of Heaven and Earth. He is the one who has predetermined what you will before conception.

"Before I formed you in the womb I knew you [and approved of you as My chosen instrument], And before you were born I consecrated you [to Myself as My own]; I have appointed you as a prophet to the nations.” Jeremiah 1:5 Amplified

God delights in you discovering His purpose for your life (early) and He has provided different channels for you to discover and fulfill it.

 Channels to Discover Your Purpose.

I used the word "channel" because every principle or path to purpose discovery comes from God.

1. The Word of God: The Word is God's directory to you, guiding you on the path to purpose. Friend, you can't discover purpose outside God and He speaks via His word.

"Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path" Psalm 119:105 KJV

2. Prayer: A wise man said when you are not praying you are proud. Prayerlessness is pride, it's you telling God you can manage the affairs of your life. Prayer of inquiry about your purpose is proof of humility and complete surrender to the will of God.

"Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God." Philippians 4:6

3. The Holy Spirit: He is the 3 person of the Trinity. He is God's gift to us to access all that God has for us. He searches the heart of God and reveals it to us. 

Jesus our Lord and Savior had a successful ministry on earth through the help of the Holy Spirit. Seek His and follow His leading.

" But it was to us that God revealed these things by his Spirit. For his Spirit searches out everything and shows us God’s deep secrets." 1cor 2: 10 NLT 

4. Service: Most people want to "become" without serving. That's not biblical everyone God made use of greatly and fulfilled purpose was found serving. 

For example, Joshua, Daniel, Mordecai, etc all had their place in purpose through service. Don't just wait serve...
