Key Text: For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. – Ephesians 2:10
Key Message: Purpose isn’t found in what you do—it’s fulfilled in who you’re becoming.
As the year draws to a close, many focus on what they’ve accomplished—or haven’t. But purpose runs deeper than achievements. The Greek word “poiēma” in Ephesians 2:10, from which we get our word “poem,” reveals that you are God’s masterpiece, His artistic expression in progress.
Think about it: A poem isn’t just about the final line—it’s about the rhythm, the flow, the journey of words dancing together. Similarly, your purpose isn’t just about reaching destinations; it’s about becoming who God designed you to be through every season, every challenge, every victory.
The beauty of being God’s handiwork is that your purpose was prepared “in advance.” Before January’s resolutions or December’s reflections, God already mapped out your divine assignments. These aren’t just big moments—they’re found in daily faithfulness, in small acts of obedience, in consistent character growth.
Today’s Truth: Your purpose isn’t a destination to reach, but a identity to live into. Every moment becomes meaningful when viewed through the lens of divine design.
Power Points: • Purpose is more about being than doing • God’s preparation precedes your participation • Daily faithfulness fulfills divine destiny • Your becoming is as important as your doing
Prayer Focus: Father, align our hearts with Your purpose. Help us see beyond tasks to transformation, beyond doing to becoming.
