YOU ARE NOT AN ACCIDENT
You are NOT an accident. You were DESIGNED for a PURPOSE. YOU were MADE for a MISSION.
1)WHY AM I HERE?
2)WHY DID GOD MAKE ME THE WAY THAT I AM?
“It’s in CHRIST that we find out WHO we are and WHAT we are living for. Long before we first heard of Christ and got our hopes up, HE had His eye on us, had DESIGNS on us for glorious living, part of the overall PURPOSE He is working out in EVERYTHING and EVERYONE.” —Ephesians 1:11
1)YOUR MISSION IS ALL ABOUT
Your life’s mission is to KNOW
Colossians 1:15-16 says, “We look at this Son (Jesus) and see the God who cannot be seen. We look at this Son and see God’s ORIGINAL PURPOSE in everything created. For EVERYTHING, absolutely everything, above and below, visible and invisible, rank after rank after rank of angels—EVERYTHING got started in HIM and finds its purpose in HIM.”
2)YOUR
From one man he made every nation of men, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he determined the times set for them and the exact places where they should live. —Acts 17:26
You saw me before I was born. Every day of my life was recorded in your book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed. —Psalm 139:16
If you persist in staying silent at a time like this, help and deliverance will arrive for the Jews from someplace else; but you and your family will be wiped out. Who knows? Maybe you were made queen for just such a time as this. —Esther 4:14
3)YOUR
For we are God’s workmanship [he designed us], created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared IN ADVANCE for us to do. —Ephesians 2:10
Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex! Your workmanship is marvelous—how well I know it. You watched me as I was being formed in utter seclusion,
as I was woven together in the dark of the womb. —Psalm 139:14-15
Be yourself, everyone else is taken. —Oscar Wilde

EPILOGUE: YOU ARE
But when God, who set me apart from birth, and called me by His grace, was pleased to reveal His Son in me so that I might preach Him among the Gentiles. —Galations 1:15-16
So be careful; you must not drink wine or any other alcoholic drink nor eat any forbidden food. You will become pregnant and give birth to a son, and his hair must never be cut. For he will be dedicated to God as a Nazirite from birth. He will begin to rescue Israel from the Philistines.” —Judges 13:4-5
Nazirites are set apart for God at birth before they can do anything to EARN a good standing with God.
Nazirites are called by God’s grace. There is NOTHING they can do to earn God’s favor.
Nazirites are always set apart for a godly PURPOSE.
Nazirites offer a public SYMBOL of their devotion.

We need a REVIVAL and a MOVE OF GOD!
