[Ephesians 1:4-12] chose us in Him before the foundation of the world to be holy and without blame before Him in love, having predestined us to adoption as sons through Jesus Christ, according to the good pleasure of his will, to the praise of the glory of his grace, which hath made us accepted in the Beloved, in whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins according to the riches of his grace that he lavished upon us in all wisdom and intelligence, known to us the mystery of his will according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in himself, gather all things in Christ, in the dispensation of the fullness of time, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth. It also had an inheritance, being predestined according to His purpose who works all things after the counsel of his will, in order to be to the praise of his glory.
Why am I in the land? Without doubt, this question crosses the mind of everyone at some point. Unbiblical theories say that we do more than occupy space, and we will return to nothing when we die. Some say that we choose our own destiny, in other words, we can live for any reason we choose. But that is absolutely false! The Lord has put on earth to fulfill its purpose. What is the purpose? God's eternal purpose is to have a big family with many children like Jesus. Man was created to know and serve God as Father, reveling in their love, but it turned rebellion. The death and resurrection of Jesus provides the way of redemption and restoration to the original divine purpose. Therefore salvation as a role model in their behavior and dedication to make life for the glory of God. He provided us with all necessary means to achieve this purpose by virtue of our union with Christ.
Our heavenly Father has a special plan for the life of each person, but wants everyone to have the same goal: to be conformed to the image of Jesus Christ. The process of our moral, spiritual and physical on earth begins and ends in heaven. Much of the work that the Lord is doing in our earthly lives focuses on our character. He teaches us to be as loving, merciful and peaceful like Jesus Christ.
One might think that being as the Son of God should require a great effort. But the truth is that we are called to do it ourselves. What does the Holy Spirit who dwells in the believer and live the life of Christ through the person. Christians have a responsibility to submit to his guidance. That means they respond to circumstances with this question: "How can you, Lord, make me more like Jesus?"
The sovereign Lord is behind everything that happens, whether he directly causes the situation, or permits. Both setbacks and triumphs that are designed to fulfill the great purpose of God that we have a life that reflects his love and glory to the world. The sovereign Lord is behind everything that happens, whether he directly causes the situation, or permits.
Watch: In a letter to [Romans 8:29] said: For whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brothers.
God had in mind a previous design as well as an architect before you build, make a draft full details of the proposed building, just as God before the creation of the universe, where love and sovereign will be proposed to have a family of many children like her son Jesus.
There's no question what we're on this earth. Simple as that.
Grace and peace to your life!
