Day 36 – Prayer Focus -“His Purpose”
We Are Called According to “His Purpose”
Romans 8:28-30 – And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose. For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren. Moreover whom He predestined, these He also called; whom He called, these He also justified; and whom He justified, and these He also glorified. (NKJV)

We have our own plans and God has His plans. Our destination is to be conformed to the image of Jesus Christ. To this end, God will work all things together for our good.
Psalms 138:8
The Lord will fulfill his purpose for me; your steadfast love, O Lord, endures forever.
Do not forsake the work of your hands. (ESV)
“The Lord Will Fulfill His Purpose for Me”
His love never fails and He never gives up on me!
Our prayer focus is to fulfill God’s purpose and to be more like Jesus everyday. We are called to be Minsters of Reconciliation and to be a blessing to our community through prayer and works of service. We will accomplish this by seeking God’s will for our lives. Obey Him today. We have no promise for tomorrow.
