The Vision For Your Purpose.

There is a purpose for everything and it is up to you to find out what that real purpose is. Sometimes you need to ask for wisdom from God if you don't understand a purpose.


To understand the purpose of man, let's have a look at some scriptures.
Gen 1:26
²⁶ Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.”
Rev 5: 9-10
⁹ And they sang a new song, saying: “You are worthy to take the scroll and to open its seals, because you were slain, and with your blood you purchased for God persons from every tribe and language and people and nation. ¹⁰ You have made them to be a kingdom and priests to serve our God, and they will reign on the earth.”
 
The passage in Genesis makes you understand that the sole purpose for God making us in his image and likeness is so that we can rule over all things that was created. The passage in Revelation makes you understand that you owe everything to Jesus as he died for your redemption and has made you kings and priests to reign on earth. In essense both scriptures talk about you and i having "Dominion" over all things here on earth. Jesus himself has placed us back to dominion by his death and resurrection.
 
Victory is here on earth for us, and we can take issues concerning the earth and present it to God. We are priests and the job of a priest is to hear from God and present the message to the people. As priests, every forest is a blessing waiting for you to discover.
 
You can notice that it is not made mention that we are "princes", and that is because princes don't carry as much power and dominion as kings and priests.
Galatians 4:1
¹ Now I say that the heir, as long as he is a child, does not differ at all from a slave, though he is master of all
Ecclesiastes 10: 5-7
⁵ There is an evil I have seen under the sun, As an error proceeding from the ruler: ⁶ Folly is set in great dignity, While the rich sit in a lowly place. ⁷ I have seen servants on horses, While princes walk on the ground like servants.
As long as you are a prince, you are still operating and perceived to be in the same position as a slave or a servant.
 
The mental ability to solve a problem must be greater than the ability to create it. You must trust solely on God who is the one that gives us the wisdom we need.
1Kings 20: 3-4
³ ‘Your silver and your gold are mine; your loveliest wives and children are mine.’” ⁴ And the king of Israel answered and said, “My lord, O king, just as you say, I and all that I have are yours.”
1Kings 20: 13
¹³ Suddenly a prophet approached Ahab king of Israel, saying, “Thus says the LORD: ‘Have you seen all this great multitude? Behold, I will deliver it into your hand today, and you shall know that I am the LORD.’”
 
There is a huge difference between having an Ambition and having a Vision that you need to know about. A vision is a picture of a need for a desirable future not just for yourself but for a mass of other people. An ambition is a selfish need for yourself. Your vision must be big enough to ensure that it includes other people who will also be able to benefit from that which you birth. Jacobs vision saw him build a "city" of which his sons, poeple all around him, and the generations after them have enjoyed ever since.
 
In conclusion, you must have a vision, a picture of a better life not only for yourself but for others around yourself. You must set yourself values by which you abide by so that when confronted with various instances, you know which ones to pursue based on these values. Your vision defines your purpose.
