A Journey with Purpose (40 Days)

Adapted from Rick Warren (The purpose Driven Life)

1. It all starts with God
22/7/2015

It's not about me

 "Everything got started in him and finds its purpose in him". Colossians 1:16b

2. You are not an accident
 23/7/2015

I am not an accident 
You saw me before I was born and scheduled day of my life before I began to breath. Every day was recorded in your Book!

 "I am your CREATOR. You were in my care even before you born". Isaiah 44:2 

3.  What drives your life?

24/7/2015 

 
Driven by gulit, resentment and anger, fear, materialisme, the need for approval?

"what happiness for those guilt has been forgiven!.. what relief for those have confessed their sins and God has cleared their record".
''to worry yourself to death with resentment would be foolish. senseless thing to do"
The benefits of purpose-driven life :
-Knowing your purpose gives meaning to your life
-Knowing your purpose simplifies your life
-Knowing your purpose focuses your life
-Knowing your purpose motives your life
-Knowing your purpose prepares you for eternity
Living on purpose is the path to peace

"You, LORD, give perfect peace to those who keep their purpose firm and put theit trust in you" -Isaiah 26:3 (TEV)

4. Made to last forever 
 25/7/2015

"When this tent we live in-our body here on earth-is torn down, God will have a house in heaven for us to live in, a home himself has made, which will last forever".

"Realizing that every moment we spend in these earthly bodies is time spent away from our eternal home in heaven with Jesus".

"This world is fading away, along with everything it carves. But if you do the will of God you will live forever" -1 John 2:12 (NLT) 

5. Seeing life from God's view

26/7/2015

We don't see things as they are, we see them as we are -Anais Ninn

The way you see your life shapes your life. 

"do not confrorm yourselves to the standards of this world, but let God transform you inwardly by a complete change of your mind. Then you will be able to know the will of God." 

Life on earth is a test. God continually tests people's character, faith, obedience, love, integrity and loyalty.

"GOD keeps his promise, and he will not allow you to be tested beyond your power to remain firm; at the time you are put to the test, he will give you the strength to endure it, and so provide you with a way out".

"Unless you are faithful in small matters, you won't be faithful in large ones". -Luke 16:10a (NLT) 

6. Life is a temporary assignment

26/7/2015

"Lord, remind me how brief my time on earth will be. Remind me that my days are numbered, and that my life is fleeing away" -Psalm 39:4 (NLT)

"I am here on erath for just a little while" -Psalm 119:9 (TEV)

*Compared with eternity, life is extremely brief & Earth is only temporary residence* 

The things we see are here today, gone tomorrow. But the things we can't see now will last forever.

"So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal." -Corinthians 4:18 (NIV)

7. The reason for everything
28/7/2015

"Everything comes from God alone. Everything lives is for his glory". -Romans 11:36 (LB)

How can I bring glory to God?

• We bring God glory by worshiping him

• We bring God glory by loving other believers

• We bring God glory by becoming like Christ

• We bring God glory by serving others with our gifts

• We bring God glory by telling others about him

It's all for him

8. Planned for God's pleasure

The Lord takes pleasure in His people. -Psalm 149:4a (TEV)

Bringing pleasure to God is called "worship". The bible says 'The Lord is pleased only with those who worship him and trust his love'.

Anything you do that brings pleasure to God is an act of worship. Worship is far more than music. Worship is not for your benefit. Worship is not a part of yourlife; it is your life.

9. What makes God smile :) 

May the Lord smile on you.. Numbers 6:25 (NLT)

-God smiles when we trust him completely

-God smiles when we praise and thank him continually

-God smiles when we use our abilities

God smiles when I trust him

Kerana mereka akan dihibur.

Berbahagialah orang yang lemah lembut,

Karena mereka akan memiliki bumi.

Berbahagialah orang yang lapar dan haus akan kebenaran,

Karena mereka akan dipuaskan.

Berbahagialah orang yang murah hatinya,

Karena mereka akan beroleh kemurahan.

Berbahgialah orang yang suci hatinya,

 Karena mereka akan melihat Allah.

Berbahagialah orang yang membawa damai,

Karena mereka akan disebut anak-anak Allah.

Berbahagialah orang yang dianiaya oleh sebab kebenaran,

Karena merekalah empunya Kerajaan Sorga.

Berbahagialah kamu,

 jika karena Aku kamu dicela dan dianiaya

dan kepadamu difitnahkan segala yang jahat.

Bersukacita dan bergembiralah, karena upahmu besar di Sorga,

Sebab demikian juga telah dianiaya nabi-nabi yang sebelum kamu.”

Mazmur 88:2

Mazmur 100:5

“Sebab TUHAN itu baik, kasih setia-Nya untuk selama-lamanya, dan kesetiaan-Nya tetap turun-temurun”.

1 Korintus 10:13

Pada waktu kamu dicobai Ia akan memberikan kepadamu jalan ke luar, sehingga kamu dapat menanggungnya”.

be completely known and all forgiven'
