THE INTERNAL SPARK OF MEANING

PURPOSE DEFINED 1.The object toward which one strives or for which something exists; an aim or a goal: 2. A result or effect that is intended or desired; an intention. 3. Determination; resolution: 4. The matter at hand; the point at issue.

NIV Path to Purpose Colossians 1:16 For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him.

YOU WERE CREATED

NIV PATH TO PURPOSE ISAIAH 40:26 Lift up your eyes and look to the heavens: Who created all these? He who brings out the starry host one by one and calls forth each of them by name. Because of his great power and mighty strength, not one of them is missing.

YOU WERE MADE IN THE IMAGE OF GOD

NIV PATH TO PURPOSE GENESIS 1:27 So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.

NIV PATH TO PURPOSE GENESIS 5:1 This is the written account of Adam’s family line. When God created mankind, he made them in the likeness of God.

NIV PATH TO PURPOSE EPHESIANS 4:24 and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.

YOU WERE MADE FOR A BEAUTIFUL PURPOSE: HIS PLEASURE

NIV PATH TO PURPOSE ISAIAH 43:4-8 6 I will say to the north, ‘Give them up!’ and to the south, ‘Do not hold them back.’ Bring my sons from afar and my daughters from the ends of the earth— 7 everyone who is called by my name, whom I created for my glory, whom I formed and made.”

NIV PATH TO PURPOSE PHILIPPIANS 2:13 for it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose.

NIV PATH TO PURPOSE 2 TIMOTHY 1:9 He has saved us and called us to a holy life—not because of anything we have done but because of his own purpose and grace. This grace was given us in Christ Jesus before the beginning of time,

NIV PATH TO PURPOSE EPHESIANS 1:4-6 4 For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love 5 he predestined us for adoption to sonship through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will— 6 to the praise of his glorious grace, which he has freely given us in the One he loves

HE KNOWS THE PURPOSE HE HAS FOR YOU THAT WILL BRING HIM THE MOST JOY

NIV PATH TO PURPOSE ROMANS 8: And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. 29 For those God foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters. 30 And those he predestined, he also called; those he called, he also justified; those he justified, he also glorified.

NIV PATH TO PURPOSE ROMANS 9:21 Does not the potter have the right to make out of the same lump of clay some pottery for special purposes and some for common use?

NIV PATH TO PURPOSE 2 CORINTH. 5:4-6 4 For while we are in this tent, we groan and are burdened, because we do not wish to be unclothed but to be clothed instead with our heavenly dwelling, so that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life. 5 Now the one who has fashioned us for this very purpose is God, who has given us the Spirit as a deposit, guaranteeing what is to come. 6 Therefore we are always confident and know that as long as we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord.
