Pray for each other’s purpose
Every career has a set of tools specific to that profession. A doctor may use a stethoscope, syringes, or a blood pressure cuff. A barber may have clippers, scissors, and maybe hair spray. A carpenter often carries a hammer, screwdriver, and power tools.
But what happens when a tool never comes in contact with a professional that knows how to use it? The tool has not lost its purpose. But until it comes into contact with the one who knows how to use it, the tool’s purpose is unfulfilled.
Each and every one of us has been uniquely and wonderfully designed to do amazing things from our relationship with God. Just as no one can take away the preconceived purpose of the most intricate tool, nothing can remove the special purpose God designed you for.
But we can’t believe our purpose comes alive apart from the One who knows how to utilize us best, our Heavenly Father.
Ignore any noise of lies entertaining the idea that you don’t have a special purpose. God already says you do. Since what He says is true, every person and every thought that says otherwise is a lie.
Like a hammer needs to always be close to the carpenter to be effective, let us draw near to God and linger in His presence to wait, find, and fulfill our purpose every day.
Ask: How can I pray for the purpose God has for you?
Consider This:
- Pray that God reveals/affirms His purpose for each of your lives clearly.
- Pray that both of you continue to grow a desire to be used by God’s plan.
Truly make note of each other’s response to the question, and take it to the Lord in prayer.
