Personal Development God's Way

A question I found on a recent post on this blog Christians and the Prosperity Gospel reads as follows:

Do you not think the bible talks more about God’s will and purpose rather than ‘your purpose’? (This is a portion of the comment – in the next post I will answer the rest of this comment).

To respond to this question, the first thing we need to understand is that there is no real separation between God’s purpose and your true purpose in life. Your purpose is a part of His

You were born with the seed of destiny in your heart.

This seed of destiny is your purpose in life.

Here is a question for you: What have you done during the month of January towards achieving your goals and dreams for this year?

Guess what?
If you have not started to take action yet, when will you? Right now? I hope so!

Think about this for a moment:

What, my destiny is my choice?

I thought that God had already planned my destiny! (You might be thinking).

Yes, He has.

Remember the verse in Jeremiah 29:11:
“I know the plans that I have for you, declares the LORD. They are plans for peace and not disaster, plans to give you a future filled with hope.”

So it is true – God HAS a destiny planned for you – and a good one. But that does not mean you will automatically reach it.

Here is something to think about that will help you see the FULL picture.
