WE WERE CREATED WITH A PURPOSE

MI DAILY DEVOTION 07-13-11
WE WERE CREATED WITH A PURPOSE
(Genesis 2: 15-17) 15- “And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it. 16- And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: 17- But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.”
God made us out of the dust of the earth and our immortal soul was from the breath of God’s nostrils and we cannot deny the fact that we came from God and was made by His own hand and we will all return in His hand after death. When God created man, He created us with a purpose and the desire to make us a responsible and blessed individual.  It’s clear as crystal that the Lord was the first agriculturist and the one who placed man in a place where God wanted man to be. It was not adventure, curiosity or false hopes that made man separated from God. It was sin and Satan who introduced it to us. We let Satan led us to His way and we went our way. We refused God’s Word, God’s way and God’s will for our lives, therefore; physical death, separation, destruction and eternal death was imputed to every individual, unless we come to the knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ.
(Romans 6:23) “For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”
