19
00:02:08.199 --> 00:02:14.400
<v Speaker 1>for today's episode is don't just show up. Don't just

20
00:02:14.759 --> 00:02:20.280
<v Speaker 1>show up another's for consideration. It's from Germr chapter one,

21
00:02:20.960 --> 00:02:26.280
<v Speaker 1>verse five. I read from the New English translation.

22
00:02:27.159 --> 00:02:27.639
<v Speaker 2>JERREMR.

23
00:02:27.800 --> 00:02:32.439
<v Speaker 1>Chapter one, verse five. Before I formed you in your

24
00:02:32.479 --> 00:02:37.599
<v Speaker 1>mother's womb, I chose you, before you were born. I

25
00:02:37.759 --> 00:02:42.159
<v Speaker 1>set you apart. I appointed you to be a prophet

26
00:02:42.479 --> 00:02:46.919
<v Speaker 1>to the nations, beloved, this is the reading of the

27
00:02:46.960 --> 00:02:51.080
<v Speaker 1>word of the Lord. Thanks me to God.

28
00:02:52.840 --> 00:02:57.439
<v Speaker 2>Don't just show up? Is there a meaning to life?

29
00:02:57.879 --> 00:02:58.319
<v Speaker 2>On neither?

30
00:03:00.439 --> 00:03:04.039
<v Speaker 3>What comes to mind each day you realize you are

31
00:03:04.080 --> 00:03:08.840
<v Speaker 3>still alive? What comes to mind when you wake up

32
00:03:09.759 --> 00:03:13.840
<v Speaker 3>or do a new day? Is it a moment of

33
00:03:13.960 --> 00:03:20.240
<v Speaker 3>joy or pain? There's waking up come with a sense

34
00:03:20.280 --> 00:03:22.800
<v Speaker 3>of opportunity or regrets?

35
00:03:24.680 --> 00:03:27.120
<v Speaker 2>Why do you show up every day?

36
00:03:28.319 --> 00:03:32.400
<v Speaker 3>Do you really want to show up anyway? Or you

37
00:03:32.439 --> 00:03:36.560
<v Speaker 3>wouldn't if you had a chance to painlessly desiree.

38
00:03:38.159 --> 00:03:38.919
<v Speaker 2>Beloved.

39
00:03:39.759 --> 00:03:42.759
<v Speaker 3>Just in case waking up every day has become a bother,

40
00:03:43.840 --> 00:03:48.919
<v Speaker 3>an inconvenience, or an intrusion, then it's simply because you've

41
00:03:48.960 --> 00:03:55.000
<v Speaker 3>lost a sense of purpose and hence meaning to this life.

42
00:03:56.039 --> 00:03:59.120
<v Speaker 3>If there is no purpose to live up to, waking

43
00:03:59.199 --> 00:04:03.080
<v Speaker 3>up daily become a bedding since it will be meaningless.

44
00:04:04.479 --> 00:04:08.879
<v Speaker 3>But the Bible unequivocally declares that there is a purpose

45
00:04:08.919 --> 00:04:13.800
<v Speaker 3>to everything under the sun. If this life will make

46
00:04:13.879 --> 00:04:18.920
<v Speaker 3>any meaning at all, then you must live, move and

47
00:04:19.040 --> 00:04:23.800
<v Speaker 3>have your being purposefully. Don't just show up to life

48
00:04:23.879 --> 00:04:28.639
<v Speaker 3>daily without any signs of purpose. God the Designer had

49
00:04:28.680 --> 00:04:33.120
<v Speaker 3>your use in mind before he fashioned you, he told

50
00:04:33.160 --> 00:04:38.399
<v Speaker 3>Jeremiah in chapter one the verse five, before I formed

51
00:04:38.439 --> 00:04:43.240
<v Speaker 3>you in your mother's roomb, I chose you, before you

52
00:04:43.319 --> 00:04:48.040
<v Speaker 3>were born, I set you apart. I appointed you to

53
00:04:48.120 --> 00:04:50.879
<v Speaker 3>be a prophet to the nations.

54
00:04:52.480 --> 00:04:54.560
<v Speaker 2>When Paul was divinely.

55
00:04:53.959 --> 00:04:59.120
<v Speaker 3>Intercepted during the days he was prosecuting the church, his

56
00:04:59.319 --> 00:05:03.319
<v Speaker 3>question come selling what he should do thereafter were ranted

57
00:05:03.399 --> 00:05:08.720
<v Speaker 3>an insightful response from the Lord Jesus. Get up and

58
00:05:08.800 --> 00:05:13.319
<v Speaker 3>go to Damascus. There you will be told about everything

59
00:05:13.399 --> 00:05:17.240
<v Speaker 3>that you have been designated to do. In Acts chapter

60
00:05:17.279 --> 00:05:22.000
<v Speaker 3>twenty two, the best ten and concerning the Lord Jesus himself,

61
00:05:23.079 --> 00:05:28.600
<v Speaker 3>when Pilot questioned him of his kingship, he replied, for

62
00:05:28.680 --> 00:05:33.360
<v Speaker 3>this reason I was born, and for this reason I

63
00:05:33.399 --> 00:05:37.079
<v Speaker 3>came into the world to testify to the truth. John

64
00:05:37.199 --> 00:05:42.480
<v Speaker 3>chapter eight in the West thirty seven, Dear one, to

65
00:05:42.560 --> 00:05:46.720
<v Speaker 3>what purpose have you been appointed by the Creator for

66
00:05:46.759 --> 00:05:51.399
<v Speaker 3>which reason were you born? What have you been designated

67
00:05:51.439 --> 00:05:56.959
<v Speaker 3>to do in this life? Without answers to these questions,

68
00:05:58.000 --> 00:06:01.079
<v Speaker 3>life will be very frustrated seem to wake up.

69
00:06:01.000 --> 00:06:03.040
<v Speaker 2>To every day.

70
00:06:03.959 --> 00:06:07.319
<v Speaker 3>Many wordfully in their life simply because they have no

71
00:06:07.439 --> 00:06:08.680
<v Speaker 3>reason to continue.

72
00:06:10.720 --> 00:06:13.519
<v Speaker 2>But that must not be your story.

73
00:06:14.279 --> 00:06:18.040
<v Speaker 3>The Creator has a reason for your creation, and if

74
00:06:18.120 --> 00:06:21.639
<v Speaker 3>you care and are desperate enough to know, he will

75
00:06:21.720 --> 00:06:25.759
<v Speaker 3>reveal your make and purpose to you if you seek

76
00:06:25.839 --> 00:06:30.800
<v Speaker 3>him diligently and spend some solitary time with him. It

77
00:06:30.920 --> 00:06:33.439
<v Speaker 3>is purpose that would drive a twelve year old boy

78
00:06:33.560 --> 00:06:34.319
<v Speaker 3>away from his.

79
00:06:34.439 --> 00:06:36.920
<v Speaker 2>Parents for three days.

80
00:06:36.959 --> 00:06:41.079
<v Speaker 3>Gets into the corridors of sacred writings and begins to

81
00:06:41.160 --> 00:06:44.399
<v Speaker 3>debate with the writers and the interpreters of the laws.

82
00:06:45.839 --> 00:06:48.240
<v Speaker 3>It is purpose that will make a angry man ignore

83
00:06:48.319 --> 00:06:52.040
<v Speaker 3>food and say I have food, I eat you know not.

84
00:06:53.759 --> 00:06:55.920
<v Speaker 3>It is purpose that will make a man, under the

85
00:06:56.079 --> 00:07:00.000
<v Speaker 3>sentence of the most shameful death, say, Father.

86
00:07:00.800 --> 00:07:04.680
<v Speaker 2>Forgive them, for they don't know what they are doing.

87
00:07:06.160 --> 00:07:09.959
<v Speaker 3>It is purpose that will make a man expected to

88
00:07:10.000 --> 00:07:14.879
<v Speaker 3>be full of anger, bitterness, and revenge rather forgive and

89
00:07:15.040 --> 00:07:20.959
<v Speaker 3>say you ment it forever, but government it for good.

90
00:07:22.199 --> 00:07:25.040
<v Speaker 3>It is purpose that will make an afflicted man saying,

91
00:07:25.680 --> 00:07:31.920
<v Speaker 3>though he slay me, yet I trust him. It is

92
00:07:31.959 --> 00:07:36.279
<v Speaker 3>a purposeful man who will dare say war to me

93
00:07:37.240 --> 00:07:42.040
<v Speaker 3>if I preach not the Gospel. He had a selfless

94
00:07:42.079 --> 00:07:46.319
<v Speaker 3>prayer of a purposeful man. Give me Scotland or I

95
00:07:46.399 --> 00:07:50.639
<v Speaker 3>will die. Another man on a deathbed asks their attending doctor,

96
00:07:51.199 --> 00:07:54.959
<v Speaker 3>how many more minutes do I have to lay? Having

97
00:07:55.040 --> 00:08:00.399
<v Speaker 3>had a physician's estimated time, he requested, please put me

98
00:08:00.519 --> 00:08:04.519
<v Speaker 3>on my knees and let me intercede for the loss

99
00:08:05.759 --> 00:08:13.519
<v Speaker 3>for the last time before I die. Precious friend, what

100
00:08:13.720 --> 00:08:17.000
<v Speaker 3>exactly do you wake up to on a daily basis?

101
00:08:17.959 --> 00:08:20.800
<v Speaker 2>What is giving you the urgency of life? Every day?

102
00:08:22.639 --> 00:08:26.560
<v Speaker 3>Where there is purples, there is a drive for every

103
00:08:26.639 --> 00:08:31.399
<v Speaker 3>day living. It is purples that will put agency in

104
00:08:31.480 --> 00:08:38.519
<v Speaker 3>your steps and give you hope to keep going even

105
00:08:38.559 --> 00:08:43.240
<v Speaker 3>in your downtime. So don't just show up to life.

106
00:08:44.759 --> 00:08:49.960
<v Speaker 3>Show up to purple, and your life will make meaning.

107
00:08:51.360 --> 00:08:57.919
<v Speaker 3>God bless you, beloved. Let's purpossibly take our memory verse

108
00:08:57.960 --> 00:09:02.039
<v Speaker 3>together In Jerremany, chapter one, the five we are taking

109
00:09:02.039 --> 00:09:06.159
<v Speaker 3>it from the New English translation, he says, before I

110
00:09:06.320 --> 00:09:12.039
<v Speaker 3>found you in your mother's womb, I chose you, before

111
00:09:12.039 --> 00:09:16.919
<v Speaker 3>you were born. I set you apart, I appointed you

112
00:09:17.000 --> 00:09:20.159
<v Speaker 3>to be a prophet to the nations. Can we take

113
00:09:20.200 --> 00:09:25.080
<v Speaker 3>it again there? March chapter one, the verse five. Before

114
00:09:25.159 --> 00:09:28.720
<v Speaker 3>I found you in your mother's womb, I chose you,

115
00:09:30.000 --> 00:09:34.240
<v Speaker 3>before you were born, I set you apart. I appointed

116
00:09:34.279 --> 00:09:39.840
<v Speaker 3>you to be a prophet to the nations. Believed, Let's

117
00:09:39.879 --> 00:09:43.879
<v Speaker 3>share with a prayer together, Father, will pray in the

118
00:09:44.000 --> 00:09:48.000
<v Speaker 3>name of Jesus, that you will help us to know

119
00:09:48.120 --> 00:09:51.279
<v Speaker 3>the purpose onto which we have been appointed on this heir.

120
00:09:52.159 --> 00:09:54.360
<v Speaker 3>And it is I that sperate prayer in the name

121
00:09:54.440 --> 00:09:57.120
<v Speaker 3>of Jesus, that you revealed to as the reason for

122
00:09:57.240 --> 00:10:00.279
<v Speaker 3>which we were born. In the name of g Yes,

124
00:10:04.159 --> 00:10:08.159

<v Speaker 3>We will not work about purpose lesslie in the name

126
00:10:12.399 --> 00:10:13.399
