“I AM HERE TO FULFILL MY COSMIC MISSION”
The Life Guided by a Cosmic Mission Part 1
• Proverbs 16:4 (NLT) The Lord has
made everything for his own
purposes…
• Proverbs 16:4 (NKJV) The Lord has
made all for Himself…
• Survival
• Success
• Significance
Truth - People who enjoy
significance know what on earth
they’re here for!
1. IT WILL REDUCE MY
FRUSTRATION
• James 1:8 (NEB) “The double
minded man can never keep a
steady course.”
2. IT WILL INCREASE MY
MOTIVATION
Simple Truth - Discover your
personal cosmic mission in life.
When you do that, it motivates you!
“’The plans I have for you,’ says the
Lord, ‘are plans for good and not
for evil, to give you a future and a
hope.’” Jeremiah 29:11 (LB)
2. IT WILL INCREASE MY
MOTIVATION
Do you know where the word “enthusiasm”
comes from? It comes from two Greek words:
en and theos. En in Greek is the word “in” and
theos is the word for God. Theology is the study
of God. The name Theodore means “lover of
God.” The point is when you get in God, en
theos, you’re going to be naturally enthusiastic.
When you get in the centre of God’s plan for your
life and you know “This is my niche. This is why
I’m here on earth. This is where I fit.”
3. IT WILL ALLOW
CONCENTRATION
• Proverbs 4:25-27(Living Bible)
“Look straight ahead and fix
your eyes on what lies before
you. Mark out a straight path
for your feet. Then stick to the
path. Don’t get sidetracked.”
3. IT WILL ALLOW
CONCENTRATION
• “I am bringing all my energies
to bear on this one thing:
forgetting what is behind and
looking forward to what lies
ahead.” Philippians 3:13 (LB)
4. IT WILL ATTRACT
COOPERATION
• Proverbs 1:27 “If your goals are
good, you will be respected.”

GOD’S EVALUATION

GOD’S EVALUATION
2 Questions…
1. What did you do with My Son,
Jesus Christ?
2. What did you do with all the
talents that I gave you?
There are three things you can get
started on…
1. IDENTIFY WHAT’S BEEN
DRIVING MY LIFE SO FAR
Has it been guilt? Has it been fear?
Worry? Resentment? My past?
Other people? Making money?

attention to how you live.”

PURPOSE FOR MY LIFE

Maker and in our union with Christ,
He has created us for a life of good
works which He has already
prepared for us to do.”
