lucresa

In my first Podcast I deal with  three points why are we here, What is God purpose for us here on earth? I spoke about reflecting God's image,and Fellowship with God.  Now that we are made in the image of God and are in fellowship with God, God wants us 


1 To Love and Worship Him, God. 2, To Love and serve others, and 3 To spread the Gospel.

To love and Worship God

First, God wants us to love and worship Him. Luke 10:27 King James Version " And he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbor as thyself.
God has graced us with His different gifts and He wants us use these gifts to help others and glorify Jesus Christ, not ourselves. “Whoever,  speaks, as one who speaks oracles of God; whoever serves, as one who serves by the strength that God supplies—in order that in everything God may be glorified through Jesus Christ. To him belong glory and dominion forever and ever” ( 1 Peter 4:10 ).We are created to love and worship God. Having built an intimate and a personal relationship with God, we recognize and acknowledge His sovereignty,  Therefore, we strive to  live in obedience to His word and will,We must use  these gifts for His purpose. “As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God's varied grace” ( 1 Peter 4:10 ). We are admonished also to use our gifts to enhance His ministry here on earth   We not only serve God but we must love and serve others

To Serve Others: 
By serving others, we  show compassion, kindness, and generosity, and love for one another. When someone is in need and we are in a position to help, we must extend our kindness to that one.

To Spread the Gospel: 
Christians are called to share the message of salvation through Jesus Christ with others (Matthew 28:19-20). Therefore, another purpose of human life is to participate in the Great Commission, spreading the Good News of Jesus' death and resurrection and inviting others to enter into a relationship with God. We are His ambassadors on earth telling the good news of what God has done.

Prayer:Heavenly Father, we know sometimes we come short of loving and serving You as well as others.  Father forgive us and put in us the desire to love and worship you as well as to love and serve others.  We thank you for empowering us to spread the gospel which is the good news of salvation.  In Jesus' name.  Amen

Part 3 of my Podcast on Why Are we here will be on April 13
