Today we will be dealing with 20 bible verses about living life with purpose. Living life with purpose is getting the real essence of our creation and fulfilling it. To every man created by God, there is a purpose for their creation. Man is meant to discover that purpose and fulfill that purpose. It is however sad that many people die without fulfilling their purpose. Every man needs to identify their purpose and live with it.
The mistake most people make is thinking they live by chance. First, they don’t bother to seek the face of God over a matter to know the intention of God over the situation. God has a plan for our life. And we must identify that purpose because there are so many people whose destinies are attached to ours. The scripture said in the book of Romans 8:19 For the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the sons of God.
A man who is ignorant of his purpose in life will fall prey to the fantasy that their life is not important. You are a star, you are important and God has created you for a reason. You have an impact you must make on the world and the people around you and without living with purpose, it will be very difficult to make that impact. Good for us, the scripture offers different verses that give us an understanding of purpose in life and how to live life with purpose. We have compiled a list of 20 bible verses about living life with purpose. Study and memorize the following scripture verses.
