Want Your Destiny? Be in Constant Contact with Your Creator

God created you to be in constant communication with Him.  He wants a relationship with you.  Your relationship with God has many different aspects.  He is your Creator, Maker, Lord, Master, Judge, Redeemer, Father, Savior, Friend the Sticks closer than a brother, Groom, and much more. 

In the Garden of Eden God had a constant, close relationship with God.  They were intimate friends.  Adam and Eve delighted in God, and He delighted in them.  After the fall that relationship was severed.  Some people in the Old Testament had relationships with God.  David was a “man after God’s own heart.”  Job, Enoch, Noah and others had intimate relationships with God, but idolatry and fear were commonplace in the Old Testament. 

The death of Christ brought us back to relationship with God.  He restored our relationship with God and sent the Holy Spirit to enlighten us.  Because of Jesus we can know our true destiny and have a restored relationship with God.  Jesus said,” No longer do I call you servant, for a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have call you friend, for all things that I heard from My Father I have made known to you.” (John 15:15)

There are some things that we can do to have an intimate relationship with God and therefore have a better knowledge of our destiny.

1.    Be in constant conversation.  Having a close relationship with God doesn’t mean just attending church every week or having quiet time with Him every day.  It means to be in prayer constantly.  When we are about our day we need to be in constant contact and having an open conversation with Him.  The Bible says to “pray without ceasing.” (1 Thess. 5:17)  We need to practice His presence all the time.  He will tell us what He wants from us, what our destiny is, and how we can fulfill it.
2.    We need to be in constant meditation.  The best way to know someone is to be in constant meditation on what they have written.  I like to watch the show “Little House on the Prairie.”  Because I have watched the show and read some of the Little House books I feel I know Laura Ingalls Wilder personally.  I was only a year old when she died so that was impossible, but the best way to get to know someone is by reading about them and studying there words.  The best way to know your purpose and destiny is by meditating on God’s word and getting to know God.  His revelation of your destiny will be revealed because He loves you enough to reveal it and help you live it.

If you truly wish to have a great purpose in life you must know the one who sent you here and gave it to you in the first place.  God is that person.  He wishes to love you, allow you to know Him, reveal His heart to you (your purpose), and help you become the person that can have this great purpose.
