What is my purpose?
You were created by God for God.
“For by Him all things were created…” Colossians 1:6
We are apart from God because of sin.
“For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” Romans 3:23
“The wages of sin is death…” Romans 6:23
God approached us in Jesus.
No one can work toward God. Our goodness cannot gain us access to God. That is why He came to us in Jesus. He lived a sinless life. He died a death we deserve to pay for our sins. He was raised from the dead on the third day.
Jesus said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life.” John 14:6
You must accept Him by faith.
“For it is by faith you have been saved through faith – and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God.” Ephesians 2:8
“For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.” John 3:16
You must admit that you are a sinner and need God’s forgiveness. You must believe Jesus died for you and was risen again. You must turn away from sin and toward Jesus.
“Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” Romans 10:13
Pray
Lord, thank you for creating me. I admit that I am a sinner. Thank you for loving me through Jesus. I trust that He died for my sin and was resurrected. Today I turn from my sin and put my full trust in you alone. Thank you for your forgiveness. Thank you for giving me eternal life.
