How many times have you asked yourself that question? Who
am I? Why am I here? I know I have a purpose, but what is it?
Oftentimes people struggle with knowing who they are. They
want to know their purpose. People want to know why they were put on this earth
and what God has chosen for them to do. For each of us it’s a personal struggle
or journey. Sure, people can throw ideas at you based on their observations,
but who are you, really? That’s the question.
Do you know who you are? Do you know what God has purposed
for your life? I think sometimes our struggle to find out who we are takes us
down various paths. Those paths may include different jobs or relationships.
Sometimes there may be a struggle on a job, or a particular relationship. Sometimes
we may think we have missed God, especially when we are going through difficult
times, but I believe every experience whether good, bad, or indifferent is part
of our journey. It’s what makes us who we are. Nothing just happens.
I will tell you this, everyone is here for a reason, and
there are no mistakes or accidental births. Birth in itself is a miracle.
Several years ago during prayer God spoke to me in an audible voice “The
miracle of Birth” I didn’t know then and still don’t know now why He spoke
those words to me, but I am sharing them with you today because maybe His
intent was for you to hear them. So I
say to you this day birth in itself is a miracle. Each one of us is a miracle of God.
But who are you? You already know you are a miracle, but
what else? You are a spirit that resides in a body and you have a soul. Your
soul or heart encompasses your mind and emotions.
One thing that you must know is that before you were born,
your destiny was already planned.
Jeremiah 1:5 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. Whether you were ordained as a prophet like
Jeremiah or God has another plan for your life, He does indeed have a plan for
you. His plans or His thoughts for you are great. Jeremiah 29:11-13 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. Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me,
and I will hearken unto you. And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.
God is telling us to call upon Him, to pray unto Him. And
when we do this, He tells us He will hearken, He will give heed or attention to
what we are saying, He will listen to us. And, if we seek Him with all our
heart, now remember this is being done within our soul, then we will find him,
and when we find Him, we will find ourselves.
I often think of our purpose or God’s plan for our life as
that thing that won’t go away. Sometimes it may lie dormant especially if the
enemy is attacking and trying to pull you away from God’s purpose for your
life, but rest assured, try as he may. Not even the devil himself nor his
henchmen can stop God’s plans for you. He has anointed, appointed and equipped
you to do everything that He has predestined for you to do.
Who are you? You are a child of the Most High God with a
predestined plan to succeed in God’s will for your life.
