Placed Here for a Purpose

Read: John 18: 33-37; Luke 9: 51

"You are a King. then!" said Pilate. Jesus answered, "You say that I am a king. In fact, the reason I was born and came into the world is to testify to the truth. Everyone on the side of truth listens to me."

John 18: 37

          When we read John 18: 33-37 about Pilate and Jesus conversation. When Pilate asked Jesus, "You are King". Jesus answered that He is not only a King, but also He was born for purpose to testify to the truth. And Jesus testified the truth, so the truth set us free.

         We review Jesus died and his resurrection all took place according to God's purpose.  In Luke 9: 51 said, "As the time approached for him to be taken up to heaven, Jesus resolutely set out for Jerusalem." Jesus steadfastly see his face to go to Jerusalem. Jesus' death was no turn of fate - it was a fulfillment of God's plan. It designed by the heavenly Father to fulfill a specific purpose.

         We must learn to view the events of our life from the divine perspective and the purpose, God has a plan for our lives. Then knowing His will, so that we can serve and glorify him in everything we do. We are the followers, so do what he has said. Therefore, God has placed us where are for a purpose.

Duties belong to us, Results belong to God.
